Relationship between protein nutritive quality and technological property parameters of wheat flour.
The biological value of proteins as well as their importance for the technological quality of wheat flours have been extensively researched. Apart from the other factors, gluten content, structure and functional characteristics are responsible for the flour's technological properties. Functional properties of gluten complex and thus also rheological properties of flour are influenced by the specificity and intensity of interactions among individual protein fractions and likewise of protein interactions with other flour components. Rheological properties of flour and quality parameters of bread are changed to a greater or lesser extent, among other, by addition of free amino acids. The purpose of this work was to explore the relationship between certain essential amino acids of wheat flour and the parameters of flour rheology and bread baking quality.
