title: Comparative analysis of total proteins, amino acids, carbohydrates, fibers, lipids, macro and micro minerals contents in different types of Egyptian bread.
abstract: Seven types of Egyptian bread were collected from different rural and urban areas. The chemical composition including total proteins, amino acids, carbohydrates, fibers, lipids, macro and micro minerals contents were determined. Total proteins content was higher in shamssy bread than other types of bread. Crude fat has the highest value in bread made from mixture of cereals, especially when trigonella is found, while fiber content was highest when mixture of cereals containing sorghum is used. Ash content of bread made from maize + wheat showed a higher value than other types and the differences were highly significant. Ca, Mg, Cu, and Fe were higher in bread made from sorghum + trigonella blend than other types of bread. Variations in the amino acids content of the different types of bread were found; these differences due to the origin of different cereals, the method of bread processing and the differences in the extraction rates of the flour.
