Abstract: The study has been carried out at the All-Russian Research Institute of Grain and Its Processing Products. This
paper describes the formation of new grades of triticale flour based on the cumulative ash curves the analysis of
technological and biochemical indicators of which showed that flour of the grades T-60, T-70 and T-80 obtained from
endosperm can be used directly in bakery, flour of the grades T-120 and T-220 obtained from peripheral parts and triticale
bran can be limitedly used in bakery, and are mainly raw materials for further processing. On the basis of the study of the
kinetics and efficiency of the effect of proteolytic and cellulolytic enzyme preparations (EP) and their compositions,
optimal conditions for enzymatic modification (the EP dosage is 0.5–0.75 units of PA/g of flour, 0.3...0.4 units of CA/g of
bran, the optimum temperature is 40–50C, pH is 5.0 and 3.5, the duration of reactions is 1.5 and 2 hours) have been

proteases allowed to hydrolyze triticale flour proteins completely and to use the obtained hydrolyzate as a component of
hypoallergenic and gluten-free flour products. The use of cellulolytic EP allowed to increase the amount of reducing
substances and soluble protein by 1.5–2.5 times in comparison with the control sample. The biomodified bran obtained

INTRODUCTION
The relevant trends in the development of flour
technology include both the improvement of traditional
methods and the development of technologies of products
with a high biological and nutritional value, the use of
biotechnological methods in the technology of advanced
processing products, the creation of technologies of new,
non-traditional products, etc. The final objective of the
technologies being developed is to obtain products with
the specified composition and properties.
All-Russian Research Institute of Grain and Its
Processing Products conducts fundamental and applied
studies to develop the basic methods for managing
technological processes of the preparation and grinding
of grain of various crops in order to obtain products with
the specified chemical composition and properties. Thus,
using the example of processing of triticale grain into
flour and cereals, principles of the formation of stable
streams of flour from various anatomical parts of grains
have been developed, which allows to form various
types of flour with the specified properties. The
application of the developed technologies allows to
obtain such products from triticale grain as: graded
baker's flour, cereals for children's and dietary nutrition
and grits for pasta [1, 2, 3, 4].
Triticale is a new crop, this is the first grain crop
obtained by crossing wheat (Triticum) with rye (Secale).
The first report on the receipt of a wheat-rye hybrid was
published in 1875 [5]. The main manufacturers of
triticale in the world are Poland, Germany, France and
Belarus, moreover, the cultivation area of this most
promising culture expands both in the world and in
Russia. The croppage in Russia was 624 thousand tons
in 2017, according to Roskomstat. The average yield of
triticale in Russia in 2016 is 27.8 c/ha, which is the
largest value for the period of 2009-2016, and is also
4.7 c/ha more than in 2015 [6]. 75 grades of winter
triticale and 14 grades of spring triticale have been added
to the State Register of Selection Achievements
approved for use in Russia (2017). All new grades are
recommended for food purposes [7].
The biotopotential of triticale grain depends primarily
on: varietal features and growing conditions. The
nutritional value is related to a high protein content,
essential amino acids and a balanced amino acid
composition. The biological value of triticale grain
depends on the predominance of water and salt-soluble

protein fractions and, as a consequence, a higher degree
of assimilation of triticale proteins, as well as the
presence of vitamins, macro- and micronutrients [4, 8, 9].
However, at present, in Russia, triticale is used
mainly in the production of mixed fodder and alcohol.
Perspective is the application of flour from triticale
grain as a component of raw materials in the
production of confectionery products: biscuits, cakes
and crackers. It is possible to use triticale flour in the
production of fast breakfasts or in the production of
dietary bread, including multi-grain bread and that
from whole grains [9, 10, 11]. There is no production
of bread from graded triticale flour currently in Russia.
The use of methods for a biotechnological effect on
various crops and their processing products with
obtaining general-purpose, functional and treatment
and prophylactic food products is a promising and
relevant trend of scientific research for the
technological development of the milling branch. At
present, the use of enzymatic hydrolysis of
biopolymers of food raw materials of both animal and
vegetable origin is being actively and comprehensively
studied and introduced into the practice of food and
processing industries [12, 13, 14, 15, 16].
The use of modern biotechnological methods
allows to develop methods for enzymatic modification
of grain processing products (flour of various types,
including that with a high content of peripheral parts,
bran) using multienzyme compositions (MEC) based
on proteolytic and cellulolytic enzyme preparations; to
obtain modified products (protein hydrolyzate,
structurally modified flour, biomodified bran) with
various values of degree and depth of hydrolysis of
proteins and non-starch polysaccharides with various
functional and technological properties.
The study aims at developing a flexible technology
based on the division of triticale grain into anatomical
parts to obtain new general-purpose and special
products with a high nutrition and biological value and
to obtain components with specific functional and
technological properties. The implementation of the
taken aim will allow to design food products from
grain with the specified composition and properties.
STUDY OBJECTS AND METHODS
The experimental studies have been carried out at
the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution "All-
Russian Research Institute of Grain and its Processing
Products". In this paper, flour was used from of triticale
grain of new grades formed on the basis of cumulative
ash curves. Since the studied samples of triticale grain
did not contain any foreign and grain impurities, the
technological process of preparing triticale grain for
milling included only hydrothermal treatment: the
grain was moistened up to 1415% and softened for
12 hours [3]. The technological process of grain
grinding included 4 break, 6 reduction and 2 scratch
systems. The parameters and grinding regimes
corresponded to the recommended "Rules for the
organization and conduct of a technological process at
flour mills" for graded wheat milling according to a
short process scheme. 6 samples of triticale grain of
different grades were isolated for laboratory milling:
Topaz (2011, 2012); Skolot (2012); Vocaliz (2012);
Tribun (2012) and Donslav (2012). Thus, the range of
values of the quality indicators of the studied samples
was: glassiness is 5572%, the natural weight is
715737 g/l, the weight of 1000 grains is 4044 g, the
ash content is 1.851.89%, the crude gluten content is
1724%, the gluten quality is 46–64 units of GDI, the
falling number is 74175 s and the protein content is
1213% [1].
Figure 1 presents the process of grinding and
forming the quality of flour in the form of cumulative
ash curves. The presence of 3 stages of flour formation
has been established, which is clearly seen from the
graphs of cumulative curves (Fig. 1). In addition, the
statistical analysis has shown the reliability of
representation of cumulative curves in the form of three
linear sections.

The first stage of flour formation consisted in
extracting the central part of endosperm with a flour
yield of 4045% and an ash content of 0.60% and
included the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd reduction systems. The
letter designation A has conditionally been assigned
to the given flour stream. The second stage consisted
of 57 technological systems and was characterized
by a yield of triticale flour in the amount of 2526%
and ash content of 0.91%. The letter designation
B has conditionally been assigned to the given flour
stream. The third stage consisted of scraping with a
flour yield of 57% and ash content of 2.20% and
included the 6th reduction system and scratch
systems. The conventional designation of flour stream
is C. Further on, the flour of each of the stages was
mixed to obtain individual flour grades, which
resulted in obtaining 5 flour grades. The conventional
designation of the grades includes the index T which
stands for triticale, and a number which stands for the
value of ash content × 100. Thus, flour T-60 was the
stream A with an ash content of 0.60%, flour T-70
was a mixture of the streams A+B, flour T-80 was a
mixture of the streams A+B+C, flour T-120 was a
mixture of the streams B+C and flour T-220 was the
stream C.
The soluble protein content was determined using the
Lowry method [17] and the protease activity - using the
modified Anson method [18], bovine serum albumin
was used as the standard substrate, amine nitrogen -
using the formol titration method, and reducing
substances (RS) - using the Bertrand method [19].
Determination of the fractional composition of proteins
according to Osborne: albumins were isolated using
distilled water, globulins - using a 10% NaCl solution,
prolamines - using 70% ethanol, and glutelins - using a
0.2% NaOH solution. The proteins and the products of
proteolysis of triticale flour and bran were fractionated
by molecular weight using the gel chromatography
method with a column with Sephadex G-75 and
Toyopearl gel HW-55F [19].
The following were used as proteolytic and
cellulolytic enzymatic preparations: "Neutrase
1.5 MG" - a bacterial metalloproteinase (Zn)
produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, "Alcalase
FG" - a bacterial proteinase produced by Bacillus
licheniformis (Novozymes, Denmark); "Distizym
Protacid Extra" - a fungal protease produced by
Aspergillus niger (Döhler, Germany), "Protease
GC-106" - a fungal protease produced by Aspergillus
oryzae (Genencor, USA), "Shearzyme 500L" - a
purified xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae and
Aspergillus aculeatus, "Viscoferm L" - a balanced
mixture of xylanase, β-glucanase, cellulase and
α-amylase produced by Aspergillus aculeatus
(Novozymes, Denmark). All the preparations are
recommended for the hydrolysis of biopolymers of
grain raw materials [20, 21].
The functional and technological properties were
determined using the methods described in [22] and
in [23, 24]. The water absorption capacity (WAC) was
determined as the amount of water adsorbed by the
modified triticale bran after centrifugation. To determine
the fat emulsifying capacity (FEC), 50 ml of distilled
water was added to the weighed amount of 1 g of
modified triticale bran and suspended at 4000 rpm for
1 minute. Then 10 ml of refined sunflower oil was added
to the mixture and emulsified for 5 minutes at a rate of
8000 rpm. The obtained emulsion was centrifuged for
5 minutes at 2000 rpm. FEC was calculated as a ratio of
the emulsion volume and the overall system volume
expressed as a percentage. The emulsion stability (ES)
was determined by heating the emulsion for 30 min at
80°С, then cooled and centrifuged at 2000 rpm. ES was
calculated as a ratio of the emulsion volume and the
overall system volume expressed as a percentage. To
determine the fat binding capacity (FBC), the weighed
amount was put into a pre-weighed centrifuge tube, 5 ml
of refined sunflower oil was added and mixed for
1 minute at 1000 rpm, then centrifuged for 15 minutes at
4000 rpm. The unadsorbed oil was drained, the tubes
were weighed and the FBC was calculated as a ratio of
the weight of the bound oil to the weighed amount. The
foaming capacity (FC) was determined by mixing a
weighed amount in 25 ml of distilled water in a
graduated cylinder and thoroughly mixed, the volume
was made up to 300 ml and shaken for 1 min. FC was
expressed as a ratio of a foam height (mm) to a liquid
height (%).
The analyses were performed in triplicate, presenting
the results as average arithmetic ones. The discrepancy
between parallel assays did not exceed 3% of the
average arithmetic value with the confidence probability
P = 0.95.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Starting to develop methods for enzymatic
modification of biopolymers of vegetable raw
materials, it is necessary to consider the following main
factors: first of all, these are the features of
biopolymers of the given vegetable raw materials, the
heterogeneity of a substrate, the presence of various
kinds of effectors capable of activating or inhibiting
both endogenous enzymes and enzymes in the
composition of enzyme preparations, the presence
concomitant enzymes in addition to the basic activity
of enzymes, etc.; secondly, the conditions for
enzymatic modification, the main kinetic parameters of
enzymatic reactions involving the studied enzyme
preparations, which may differ from the kinetic
characteristics obtained in the studies of purified
enzymes using standard substrates.
At the first stage of the study, the main
technological and biochemical characteristics of the
study objects were studied, namely, the flour samples
formed on the basis of cumulative ash curves and
triticale bran (Table 1, 2 and 3).
The flour sample T-60, which is a fraction of the
central part of endosperm, and is significantly different
in whiteness, ash content, quantity and quality of
gluten, had the best technological properties, as shown
in Table 1. The obtained data allow to estimate the
technological properties of new grades from triticale
grain flour as high, with the prevalence of a wheat
phenotype. It has been established that triticale grain is
characterized by the absence of a significant
dependence between the content of gluten and protein,
both in grain and in single flour streams. The expected
tendency of increasing the protein content in the
systems of final grain grinding has been revealed.

Table 2 presents the analysis of the total content of
the main grain biopolymers in the formed grades of
triticale flour.
The data presented in Table 2 show that the studied
samples, especially the sample T-220, despite a high
protein content, are characterized by low baking
qualities, as evidenced by trial laboratory baking [1],
but can be used as valuable food ingredients.
The study of the quantitative ratio and properties of
various fractions of soluble grain albumins is, along
with theoretical interest, of great practical interest for
the technologies that use grain as the main raw
material. Despite the fact that the separation of protein
substances by solubility is rather relative, nevertheless,
it is used quite widely at the present time. However,
there are a lot of questions that remain unclear to this
day. This is due, most often, to a difference in the
methodological approach of different researchers.
The study of the fractional composition of the
soluble proteins of the formed grades of triticale flour
showed that the samples of T-60 and T-70 differ in the
lowest content of albumins and globulins, but the
highest content of prolamins and glutelins that are
concentrated in endosperm and form gluten. The main
part of albumins and globulins is found in the samples
T-120 and T-220, this is apparently due to the presence
of the refined germ and the aleuron layer in the flour
samples. In the sample T-80 flour, the percentage of all
fractions is approximately the same and is 20–25%, the
given sample has been formed by mixing 3 main flour
streams, which are characterized by a different
composition of anatomical parts of the grains (Table 3).

It is known that proteolytic enzymes play an
important part in the processes that proceed in grain
when stored and processed. The flour obtained by
effecting the grain, violating its integrity and, to a
certain extent, by destroying the cellular structure, is a
completely different object of study from a
biochemical point of view. The object in which the
oxidative and hydrolytic processes are primarily
activated, including the processes related to the
proteolysis of endogenous proteins.
The proteolytic enzymes of triticale grain and triticale
flour have been studied poorly [25], much less than the
parent proteases - that of wheat [26, 27] and rye [28]. The
studies carried out at the Federal State Budgetary
Scientific Institution "All-Russian Research Institute of
Grain and Its Processing Products" on the p0roteolytic
enzymes of triticale grain, revealed the presence of three
types of proteinases that actively hydrolyze bovine serum
albumin (a standard substrate) and self-proteins: acid
proteinases with an optimum pH of 3.5; neutral
proteinases with an optimum pH of 6.5 and alkaline
proteinases with an optimum pH of 9.5 [29].
Table 4 presents data on the activity of acidic and
neutral proteinases of the formed grades of triticale
flour. The proteases were extracted as described in the
paper [29]. Determination of protease activity using the

The analysis of activity of acidic and neutral
proteinases in the formed flour grades indirectly indicates
that part of the proteolytic activity in triticale grain is
related to gluten proteins, but still the highest activity was
noted for the samples T-80 and T-120, that is, these are
more likely the proteins of the germ and the subaleurone
layer. At the same time, the activity of neutral proteases is
1.5–2.0 times higher than that of acid proteases. The value
of proteolytic activity in the formed grades of triticale
flour is, in addition to other biochemical indicators, of key
importance, since proteinases are able to actively
hydrolyze their own proteins, including glutens, which
ultimately effects the technological process and the
finished product. In addition, proteolytic enzymes
participate in the regulation of the activity of other
enzyme systems, for example, amylases.
The activity of amylolytic enzymes of grain and
flour is another important technological and
biochemical characteristic that determines along with
other indicators the baking advantages of flour. It was
estimated using the method for determining a falling
number (FN). FN was 294 s for T-60; 266 s for T-70;
272 s for T-80; 245 s for T-120 and 174 s for T-220.
The falling number value for wheat flour at a level
of 230–330 s characterizes the normal amylolytic
activity of wheat flour, this value for rye flour is about
100 seconds less. The falling number values obtained
in the study of triticale flour samples show that the
activity of amylases (excluding the flour sample T-220)
is similar to the activity of these enzymes in wheat
flour, and along with other indicators confirms the
predominance of the wheat phenotype in the triticale
grain being studied.
Table 5 presents the biochemical composition of
triticale bran. The comparative analysis of the main
components of triticale grain and bran indicates a regular
increase in the content of crude protein in bran - up to
15.90 ... 20.56%, of fiber - up to 10.68 ... 14.85% and a
decrease in the starch content up to 32.72 ... 22.62%.
The significant increase in sugars in bran fractions
compared with whole grains is due, most likely, to the
presence of a refined germ [1]. It should also be taken
into account that the carbohydrate complex of triticale
grain contains a significant amount of insoluble dietary
fiber - hemicelluloses (up to 30%) [5].
The analysis of the fractional composition of
soluble proteins (Table 6) showed that the proteins of
bran from triticale grain differ in a relatively high total
content of albumins and globulins, which is generally
characteristic of triticale grain proteins, while the
number of globulins is 3 to 3.5 times higher than in
whole grain (7–8% of the total protein content). When
in a dissolved state, they are actively hydrolyzed by
endogenous proteolytic enzymes, giving a large
number of hydrolysis products with different molecular
weights. The content of prolamines is 2–2.5 times
lower than in whole grain (23.6–25.0%).
The study of streams of flour from triticale grain
allowed to reveal the most promising streams for
obtaining advanced processing products [1, 4].

The flour of the samples A, AB and ABC (T-60,
T-70 and T-80) was obtained from endosperm and
can be used directly in bakery, which was confirmed
by trial baking [1], and also after enzymatic
modification, as the components of special products
that have specific functional and technological
properties. The flour of the samples BC and C (T-120
and T-220) from the peripheral parts of endosperm,
including the aleurone layer and the seed coat, may be
limitedly used in baking, and is mainly a raw material
for further processing.
At the second stage of the study, a study was
carried out of the effectiveness of proteolytic and
cellulolytic enzymatic preparations and the main
kinetic parameters of enzymatic reactions in which
different types of flour and triticale bran were used as a
substrate. The enzymatic modification of proteins of
vegetable raw materials, including proteins of grain
crops, is an important stage in advanced technologies
of advanced processing of grain raw materials. As a
result of modification of the protein components of
grain and flour with the use of proteolytic enzymatic
preparations, hydrolysis products with a certain profile
of peptides and a number of amino acids with specific
properties can be obtained.
In case of the traditional characteristics of enzyme
preparations, the optimum temperature and pH, as well
as other kinetic parameters, is detected using a standard
substrate [30]. At the same time, in production, in the
conditions of a specific food production technology, a
complex heterogeneous system acts as the latter, which
leads to a change in the basic kinetic parameters of the
enzymatic reaction. The composition of the grain
substrate can effect the course of the proteolysis
process and change the optimum values of temperature
and pH [20].
Table 7 presents the main kinetic characteristics of
the enzymatic reaction of hydrolysis of triticale flour
proteins using bacterial and fungal proteolytic enzyme
preparations. The hydrolysis was carried out at the
optimum pH and temperature for 30 minutes. It has been
previously established that the reaction is zero order for
30 min. The enzyme preparations were added in the
amounts from 0.25 to 1.5 units of PA/g of flour, the
substrate concentration varied from 20 to 120 mg/ml.
Taking into account the complex structure of the
cell wall (the main component of bran), enzyme
preparations with a whole complex of activities are
required to degrade it and increase the degree of
protein extraction: cellulase, hemicellulase and
pectolytic activity [31].

Table 8 presents the characteristics of the
enzymatic reaction of hydrolysis of non-starch
polysaccharides of triticale bran when effected by the
enzymatic preparations "Shearzyme 500 L" and
"Viscoferm L". The composition of the incubation
mixture is the following: milled triticale bran and
water (the hydromodule is 1 : 10), a phosphate-citrate
buffer 0.1 M (20% of volume) and an enzyme
preparation with the activity from 0.1 to 0.5 activity
units/g of bran. It has been established that the
reaction is zero order for 30 min. The optimum
temperature and pH were revealed when studying the
activity of the enzyme preparations under study in the
range of 20–70°C and pH of 3.0–6.0. The hydrolysis
efficiency was estimated by RS accumulation using
the Bertrand method.
Similar results were obtained using the flour
samples T-120 and T-220 as a substrate. Thus, optimal
conditions for the hydrolysis of non-starch
polysaccharides of triticale bran and flour with a high
content of peripheral parts of grains using the
enzymatic preparations "Shearzyme 500 L" and
"Viscoferm L" were selected.
The enzymatic hydrolysis of triticale bran proteins
using enzyme protease preparations was carried out
under the following conditions: the enzyme
preparations "Neutrase 1.5 MG" and "Distizym
Protacid Extra" were applied in the amounts
from 0.25 to 1.5 units of PA/g of bran; the
substrate concentration varied from 20 to 120 mg/ml
(Table 9).

To estimate the efficiency of the studied enzyme
preparations, the enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out
under the optimal conditions, which were selected
experimentally. The incubation mixture consisted of
triticale bran, water (the hydromodule is 1 : 10), the
appropriate buffer (20% of volume) and an enzyme
preparation based on the final concentration of the
corresponding optimum. Sampling was carried out
every 30 minutes for 2 hours, the samples were
transferred to centrifugal glasses and centrifuged at
6000 rpm for 10 minutes. The supernatant was used to
determine the reducing sugars (reducing substances)
using the Bertrand method and the amount of soluble
protein using the Lowry method.
The hydrolysis efficiency was estimated by the
accumulation of RS and soluble protein. The results are
shown in Fig. 3 and 4. It has been shown that the
enzymatic preparation "Shearzyme 500 L" increases the
amount of RS and soluble protein by 2 times; and the
preparation "Viscoferm L" increases the amount of RS
by 1.5 times and the amount of soluble protein by
2.5 times. The obtained data indirectly indicate the
possibility of a significant increase in the nutritional
value of secondary products of grain triticale processing.
The flour, obtained from different parts of
endosperm, was modified using the multienzyme
compositions (MEC) based on bacterial and fungal
microbial enzyme protease preparations.

The enzymatic hydrolysis of triticale flour when
effected by the preparations "Neutrase 1.5 MG" and
"Protease GC-106" was carried out for 2 hours. The
suspension was then centrifuged at 6000 rpm for
15 minutes. 5 ml of supernatant was applied to a column
filled with the gel Sephadex G-75. The elution was carried
out using distilled water. The volume of aggregated
fractions is 4 ml. The optical density of the eluate in the
fractions was registered with a wavelength of 280 nm.
A water extract of triticale flour was used as a control
sample. The elution profiles are shown in Figure 5.

Table 10 presents data on the molecular weight, the
products of proteolysis of triticale flour proteins formed
when applying the preparations of bacterial and fungal
proteases, and the percentage of different fractions.
The comparative analysis of the elution profiles
presented in Figure 5 and the data of Table 10 shows
that the application of preparations of bacterial and
fungal proteases does not only change the ratio of high,
medium and low molecular weight proteolysis
products, but also largely changes the pattern of
elution: the nature of distribution of the proteolysis
products formed as a result of the use of
different preparations is completely different in
fractions.
Thus, in case of the enzymatic hydrolysis of
triticale flour proteins using the preparation "Neutrase
1.5 MG", there is a decrease in the high-molecular
fraction (with a molecular weight of more than
70000 Da) by 42.03%, then, when effected by the
preparation "Protease GC-106", - by 55.28%. The
increase in the low molecular weight fraction (the
molecular weight is less than 3000 Da) is 16.51% and
35.21%, respectively.
When using "Neutrase 1.5 MG", the amount of the
formed medium molecular weight peptides with a
molecular weight from 30000 to 20000 Da is
approximately 2.5–3 times higher as compared to
"Protease GC-106"; in turn, when effected by "Protease
GC-106", the amount of low-molecular peptides (the
molecular weight is 20000 ÷ 10000 Da) is 5.8 times
higher than when effected by "Neutrase 1.5 MG".

On the basis of the studies carried out, multitalzyme
compositions have been compiled to obtain products of
proteolysis of triticale flour proteins with a different
degree of hydrolysis, and, consequently, with various
functional and technological functions [32].
The use of MEC, which includes proteolytic
enzymes with a different specific effect (the bacterial
protease preparations "Neutrase 1.5 MG" and
"Alcalase FG" and the fungal protease preparation
"Protease GC-106"), allowed to hydrolyze proteins
almost completely, as evidenced by this fractionation
of products of triticale flour proteolysis using the gel
chromatography method on a column with Sephadex
G-75 (Fig. 6).
Thus, there are practically no high molecular
weight fraction with a molecular weight of more than
70,000 and fraction with a molecular weight of
40,000–30,000 Da, while the amount of low molecular
weight peptides and amino acids in the hydrolyzate has
increased approximately by 2.5–3.0 times in
comparison with the control sample.

The obtained data allowed to position the
hydrolyzate obtained with the use of MEC on the basis
of enzyme protease preparations as a possible
component of hypoallergenic and gluten-free products
used for the therapeutic and prophylactic purpose.
Bran and flour with a high content of peripheral
parts containing a large number of non-starch
polysaccharides, in turn, were modified using MEC
based on cellulolytic and proteolytic enzymatic
preparations. As a result, products of enzymatic
modification of flour and bran from triticale grain with
a different degree of hydrolysis of proteins and non-
starch polysaccharides and various functional and
technological properties have been obtained [21, 31].
The composition of 2 multi-enzyme compositions
used for the enzymatic modification of triticale bran
and flour with a high content of peripheral parts
included: "Shearzyme 500 L" + "Neutrase 1.5 MG"
(MEC-1) and "Viscoferm L" + "Dystizym Protacid
Extra" (MEC-2). The choice of enzyme preparations
is caused by various specific effects and
approximately the same effect optima: the optimum
temperature is 50°C; pH is 5.5–6.0 for MEC-1 and
40°C; pH is 3.5 for MEC-2. The hydrolysis was
carried out in 2 stages. At the first stage, a cellulolytic
enzyme preparation was applied. At the second stage,
a proteolytic enzyme preparation was applied. The
dosage of enzyme preparations, the substrate
concentration and the duration of each stage were
selected experimentally [4]. Figures 7, 8 and Table 12
present the results of fractionation of the products of
proteolysis using the gel chromatography method on a
column with Toyopearl gel HW-55F.
The obtained experimental data on the kinetics of
enzymatic reactions of hydrolysis of biopolymers of a
grain substrate (different types of flour and triticale
bran); the degrees of hydrolysis and the ratio of
fractions with different molecular weights using the gel
chromatography method on a column with Toyopearl
gel HW-55F have formed the basis for the
development of biotechnological methods for
modifying the products of triticale grain processing.
The developed methods for modifying the products
of triticale grain processing include the following stages:
– the preparation of a suspension - triticale flour, bran:
water (the hydromodule is 1 : 4);
– the preparation of solutions of enzyme preparations;
the creation of MEC;
– the enzymatic hydrolysis using MEC under the
developed conditions (the substrate concentration, the
dosage of enzyme preparations, the optimum
temperature and pH);
– the inactivation of enzyme preparations; the product
being obtained is hydrolyzed flour or bran (an
unclarified hydrolyzate);
– centrifugation;
the product being obtained is a hydrolyzate
(a supernatant) and paste (a precipitate);
– drying;
– the product being obtained is a dry hydrolyzate and
hydrolyzed flour and bran;
To estimate the possibility of using the products
obtained in food branches, their functional and
technological properties have been studied.

A wide range of physico-chemical characteristics
that determine the behavior in heterogeneous food
systems during processing, storage and consumption,
and also provide the desired structure, technological
and consumer properties of food products are to be
meant by the functional and technological properties of
proteins and protein preparations. Vegetable proteins,
as well as proteolysis products with various values of
molecular weight, can act as the ingredients of general-
purpose, treatment-and-prophylactic and special food
products. This is due to the inherent unique functional
properties [33]. Depending on the amino acid and
fractional composition, molecular weights, the
presence of charged and uncharged groups, hydrophilic
and hydrophobic groups and other structural features,
proteins can serve as gelling agents, foaming agents
and form and stabilize suspensions and emulsions,
etc. [34, 35].
The requirements for the functional properties of
proteins are specific for a certain scope and type of
product. For example, when making meat products, the
most important are the water- and fat-retaining
abilities, gelling, the emulsifying and adhesive
properties; in bakery - the water-binding, emulsifying
and foaming abilities; the main criterion for choosing a
protein preparation in the production of beverages is
solubility. To solve the problem of the applicability of
specific proteins for obtaining various food products, it
is necessary to know how their functional and
technological properties change depending on a
number of physico-chemical factors: the nature and
concentration of proteins in the system, the
temperature, pH, the presence and concentration of
concomitant biopolymers and low molecular weight
substances [33, 36].
In some cases, to improve and regulate the
functional properties in order to expand the scope of
these or other protein preparations, they are modified
using physical, chemical, enzymatic and other
methods.
The enzymatic method for the modification of
vegetable proteins is preferable to physico-chemical
modification, since its advantage are soft reaction
modes, the ability to regulate the degree of hydrolysis,
its specific directivity and the retention of the
biological value [32, 33, 37–40].
Tables 13 and 14 present the water binding capacity
(WBC); the fat binding capacity (FBC); the fat
emulsifying capacity (FEC); the emulsion stability
(ES); the foam forming capacity (FFC) and the foam
stability (FS) of the modified triticale bran.
The functional properties of bran from triticale
grain and the hydrolyzed samples obtained using
MEC1 and MEC2 differ from each other. Thus, the
water-binding capacity of the hydrolysed bran in the
first option increases by 16%, in option 2 - on the
contrary, it decreases by 12.6% with respect to the
unhydrolyzed triticale bran. The similar pattern can be
seen with respect to the foam forming capacity
(Experiment 1: an increase of 18.0%; Experiment 2: a
decrease of 16.1%). The fat binding and fat
emulsifying capacity increases in both experimental
options by 13.6% and 6.1% and by 19.2% and 7.7%
respectively.
The stability of the emulsion and foam of the
modified triticale bran is reduced: ES - by 8.7%; FS -
by 12.5% (Experiment 1) and ES - by 20.7%; FS - by
25.0% (Experiment 2).
Similar studies were carried out using flour samples
with a high content of peripheral parts (Table 2).
There is a tendency for samples of the flour modified
using MEC1 of an increase in WBC by 21.3 ... 26.0%; in
FBC by 13.8 ... 16.0%; in FEC by 74 ... 9.0%. There is,
on the contrary, a tendency for samples of the flour
modified using MEC2 of a decrease in these functional
characteristics: in WBC by 11.8 ... 18.3%; in FBC by
6.7 ... 22.3%; in FEC by 3.8 ... 4.0%.
The stability of the emulsion and foam of the
modified flour from triticale grain is also reduced, as in
the case of the modified triticale bran: ES - by 8.7%;
FS - by 13.4% (Experiment 3) and ES - by 20.7%; FS -
by 26.7% (Experiment 4); ES - by 9.1%; FS - by
27.3% (Experiment 5) and ES - by 8.0%; FS - by
30.2% (Experiment 6).

It is known that the functional properties of the
products of enzymatic hydrolysis of protein raw
materials depend on the physico-chemical properties of
the initial protein, the specificity of the proteases used,
the composition of MEC used, the conditions for
hydrolysis, the degree of hydrolysis and the ratio of the
fractions of proteolysis products with different
molecular weights [36, 37].
The revealed differences in the functional
properties in the initial and modified products of
triticale grain processing are related, first of all, to the
conditions for enzymatic modification (of the pH
medium), the composition and specific effect of the
enzymes that are part of the composition of MEC;
obtaining products of various degrees of hydrolysis,
and the number of high-, medium- and low-molecular
compounds; an increase or decrease in free polar
(charged) aggregations, hydrophilic and/or
hydrophobic groups, providing interactions with
different types of substances.
The obtained results indicate that the use of MEC
on the basis of cellulolytic and proteolytic enzyme
preparations allows for an advanced destruction of
proteins of the products of triticale grain processing; to
obtain products with various degrees of hydrolysis and
the ratio of components by molecular weight, which
leads to a change in the functional and technological
properties of the initial flour and will allow to find its
new scopes in food products. Thus, the samples with
the pH values close to the neutral ones (modified using
MEC1), taking into account the values of the foam
forming and fat emulsifying capacities, can be used in
foam-emulsion systems, bakery products, cakes and
biscuits. The samples with low pH values (modified
using MEC2), taking into account their functional
properties, can be used to enrich fruit beverages,
fermented milk products, salad dressings, sauces, etc.
At the same time, it should be taken into account that
with low pH values the rate of the Maillard reaction
significantly decreases, which can have both negative
and positive effects depending on the specific food
technology, namely: the retention or reduction of the
amount of amino acids and reducing sugars; the
formation of melanoidins and a complex of aromatic
compounds.
CONCLUSION
In general, the proposed technology allows to form
various grades of triticale flour (bread, confectionery,
macaroni flour, etc.) and cereals such as "semolina"; to
carry out advanced processing of triticale bran and
flour, including that with a high content of peripheral
parts, using biotechnological methods (enzymatic
modification); to receive valuable components for the
enrichment and creation of new products with the
given properties and composition, contributing thereby
to the expansion of not only the raw material base, but
also the range of the output products.
The studies carried out have shown that the
functional and technological properties of the modified
products of triticale grain processing finally depend on
the specificity of enzyme preparations and the
composition of MEC. The use of MEC on the basis of
preparations of microbial proteases allows to hydrolyze
triticale flour proteins almost completely, and to position
the obtained hydrolyzate as a possible component of
hypoallergenic and gluten-free flour products.
The use of cellulolytic and proteolytic enzyme
preparations in the hydrolysis of biopolymers of triticale
bran allowed to increase the amount of reducing
substances (reducing sugars) by 1.5–2.0 times, soluble
protein - by 2.0–2.5 times, and the use of MEC on their
basis showed that the obtained hydrolysates have a high
degree of hydrolysis of non-starch polysaccharides and
proteins, a specific ratio of high-, medium- and low-
molecular weight peptides and amino acids.
To solve the issue of the applicability of specific
products whose proteins are modified, it is necessary to
know in various food technologies not only a chemical
composition, but also functional and technological
properties. The obtained experimental data on the study
of the water binding, fat binding, fat emulsifying and
foam forming capacities, as well as the emulsion
stability and foam stability of the modified triticale bran
and flour with a high content of peripheral parts with the
use of 2 multi-enzyme compositions showed that
enzymatic modification leads to certain changes in the
functional and technological properties of the initial
flour and bran from triticale grain; and allow to find new
and more rational scopes of the modified products as
enrichers and as functional and technological
components. Thus, the samples with the pH values close
to the neutral ones (modified using MEC1), taking into
account the values of foam forming and fat emulsifying
capacities, can be used in the production of bakery
products, cakes and biscuits. The samples with low pH
values (modified using MEC2), taking into account their
functional properties, can be used to enrich fruit
beverages, fermented milk products, salad dressings,
sauces, etc. The results of the studies have formed the
basis for the development of methods for the enzymatic
modification of triticale flour and bran. Hydrolysates,
structurally modified flour and biomodified bran, which
can be used in the production of a wide range of general-
purpose, functional and treatment and prophylactic food
products have been obtained.

In solving the problem of vegetable protein deficiency, triticale grain is of great interest – a unique hybrid that com-bines the best hereditary qualities of wheat and rye. The protein content of triticale is 1.0 – 1.5% higher than that of wheat and 3–4% higher than that of rye. Obtained a new variety of grain triticale – "Slide". Products prepared from this grain crop have a high nutritional value, since the protein that is part of triticale is characterized by an increased content of essential amino acids, and is not inferior to wheat grain in terms of the content of macro – and micro-elements. It contains a lot of copper, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, sodium, zinc, manganese and iron, as well as vitamins В9, В5, В1, PP and E. Information about thermal characteristics as functions of tempera-ture plays a key role in engineering calculations and mathematical modeling of the processes of drying and heat treatment of triticale grain. The method of nonstationary thermal regime, based on the solution of the problem of thermal conductivity over two temperature-time points, developed by B.C. Wolkenstein, was used to determine the thermophysical characteristics. The determination of the thermophysical characteristics of the grain was carried out on the Kossfield RT 1394 N measuring unit (National Instruments). Revealed the character of the dependence of diffusivity, thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity on temperature. Equations describing the thermophysi-cal characteristics of grain at a humidity of 13.57 and 21.83% in the temperature range of 20–100 оС are obtained
... The biological value of triticale grain is determined by the presence of vitamins, macro-and micronutrients, as well as the prevalence of water and salt-soluble protein fractions, which leads to a higher degree of assimilation of triticale proteins. (Meleshkina, Pankratov, Vitol, Kandrokov, & Tulyakov, 2017). Therefore, this study was aimed to compare and illustrate the best triticale lines that can be obtained in two different locations (Halabja and Qlyasan). ...

The main aim of this study was to determine the optimum line of triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) and best location for cultivating. The experimental design used in this study was randomized complete block design with two replications. In this study 29 lines of triticale were applied to assess some agronomic character (Plant Height (cm), No. of Days from Seeding to 50% Anthesis, No. of Days from Seeding to Physiological maturity, No. of Days from 50% Anthesis to Physiological maturity, No. of Fertile Tiller/Plant ), yield character (Grain Yield (t/ha), Biological Yield (t/ha) and Harvest Index). Plowing methods were used twice for the area of the study in each region. In Qlyasan region sowing started on 21 December and on 25 December in Halabja region. A total of 29 triticale lines developed from the hybridized winter triticale lines were used with a set name of 41ITYN and was taken from The International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT). The 29 triticale lines consisted of (802, 803, 804, 805, 806, 807, 808, 809, 810, 811, 812, 813, 814, 815, 816, 817, 818, 819, 820, 821, 822, 823, 824, 825, 826, 827, 828, 829 and 830). The result illustrated that ) the maximum plant height, No. of Days from Seeding to 50% Anthess, No. of Days from Seeding to Physiological maturity, No. of Days from 50% Anthesis to Physiological maturity and No. of Fertile Tiller/Plant was observed in lines (804, 809, 830, 827 and 807). The highest agronomic character was observed under cultivation of triticale in the Halabja location. The maximum Grain Yield (t/ha), Biological Yield (t/ha) and Harvest Index was observed in lines (802, 828 and 827). Cultivation of the plant in Halabja region also gave the highest yield.
... Currently, in the Russian Federation, triticale grain is used mainly as a grain component of compound feed and a small part to produce alcohol. It is promising to use triticale flour as a raw material, instead of wheat bakery flour, in the production of flour confectionery products: cookies, biscuits, biscuits, waffles, muffins, crackers, etc. Triticale flour can be used in the production of noodles that do not require boiling, quick breakfasts, or for the manufacture of dietary and therapeutic and prophylactic types of bread, including whole grain and multi-grain [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. In addition, the triticale grits can be used to produce mass-market pasta. ...
... So, it looks quite promising and much in demand to make flour composite mixtures at flour mills with the specified contents of the main nutritious and biologically active substances: protein, carbohydrates, carbs, fats, vitamins, micro-and macro elements from the products of the main processed crops including wheat, triticale and rye.

Background and Objective: the purpose and objectives of the research is to develop a technology for processing wheat-triticale-rye grain mixture and determine the baking properties of the obtained wheat-triticale-rye flour. Material and Methods: Wheat grain line 5170, triticale grain Alexander and winter rye grain Moscovskaya 12 of 2017 were used as the objects of study. The baseline of wheat and triticale grain quality was determined by the infra-red analyzer of grain SpectraStar 2500 XL and is presented on Table 1. The quality evaluation of the obtained samples of wheat-triticale-rye flour was carried out in accordance with standards of GOST (State Standardization System) 26574-2017 "Wheat bread flour. Technical specifications", GOST 34142-2017 "Triticale flour. Technical specifications" and GOST 7045-2017 "Rye bread flour. Technical specifications ". Results and Conclusion: In this paper, for the first time, comprehensive studies were carried out to determine the milling and baking properties of wheat-triticale-rye flour samples obtained by co-processing a grinding grain mixture of wheat, triticale and rye grain at the "Melnic 100 Lux" industrial mill. To determine and compare the milling and baking properties, we processed the original wheat grain and the grinding mixtures of wheat and triticale grain in proportions 50:40:10, 50:35:15, 50:30:20. According to the results of conducted tests it can be concluded that the original grinding mixture of wheat, triticale and rye grain in proportions 50:40:10 is the most optimal. In such proportions the yield and of high-grade flour and the total yield of flour is the highest and exceeds not only all other grinding wheat-triticale-rye grain mixtures but the control sample of wheat as well. In addition, the flour obtained from that grain grinding mixture has the highest whiteness typical of the highest quality flour. According to the results of the test laboratory baking it has been established that bread from wheat-triticale-rye in proportions of 50:40:10 has the most optimal quality indicator and is most similar to the control version of wheat bread.

Triticale and spelt grains are non-traditional types of plant raw materials that are promising for expanding the range of everyday products, healthy foods, as well as for the manufacture of food additives. A promising and relevant direction of scientific and practical research is the use of methods of biomechanical impact on the products of processing grain triticale and spelt grain in the form of flour, crumbs and bran to obtain food for general, functional and therapeutic purposes. The aim of the research is a comparative characteristic of the milling properties of new varieties of grain of wheat, triticale and spelt and the possibility of theit using for grinding into flour at existing grain processing enterprises. A comparative characteristic of the cereal-forming ability of new varieties of wheat, triticale and spelt has been carried out and it is revealed that the best cereal-forming ability belongs to the spelt grain of the "Gremme 2 U" variety, equal to 79.8 %, which is 4 % more than that of the wheat grain of the "Timiryazevskaya Jubilee" and 4.8 % of triticale grain of the "Timiryazevskaya 155" variety. It has been found that the highest flour yield under the same grinding regimes is obtained when grinding the grain of a new type of spelt "Gremme 2 U" amounted to 79.3 %. The largest amount of triticale flour of the highest grade T-60 is obtained from triticale grain of the "Timiryazevskaya 155" variety. The grain of wheat "Timiryazevskaya Jubilee" occupies an intermediate position both in terms of the total yield of flour and its quality compared to spelt and triticale. All three given new varieties of various crops have good flour-grinding properties and can be recommended for processing into high-quality bakery flour at flour mills when making grinding mixtures.
... In addition, Triticale grain can be used to manufacture mass-market pasta products. Other promising research areas are the technology of processing Triticale grain and bran for starch [15], dietary fibre [14,16], and biologically modified products [17,18]. However, there is currently no industrial production of high-quality Triticale flour in Russia. ...

The present paper features Triticale grain processing. The research involved two Russian cultivars of Triticale grain, i.e. Ramzes and Saur. The authors investigated two schemes of processing these grain varieties into high-quality baker’s grade flour. The first scheme was reduced and included only the processes of breaking and reduction, whereas the second scheme was more advanced and included breaking, purifying, sizing, and reduction processes. The paper gives a thorough description of the processing schemes, their parameters, and milling modes. A detailed analysis proved the high efficiency of the advanced scheme which presupposed the use of sieve purifiers. Their expediency was determined by the specifics of break dunst products at the first, second, and third breaks. The Triticale flour varieties were produced by mixing various flows of the central, intermediate, and peripheral parts of the Triticale grain endosperm. The reduced scheme produced a 40% yield for the Ramzes variety (ash content = 0.70%, according to the State Standard 34142-2017), while the advanced technological scheme resulted in a 63% yield. As for the Saur variety, the advanced scheme produced a total yield of 78.0%, which was 0.6% higher than in the reduced scheme. The advanced scheme resulted in a 46% yield of the T-60 flour variety, which has the lowest ash content among all the varieties of Triticale flour, whereas the reduced scheme failed to produce the flour of this variety. The experiment also involved the first-ever study of the rheological properties of Triticale flour varieties with Mixolab (Chopin Technologies, France). The study revealed significant differences in baking absorption, doughing time, batch, gluten, viscosity, amylase, and retrogradation. The best baking properties were displayed by T-70 and T-80 Triticale flours that were obtained from the central part of the endosperm, both in reduced and advanced processing schemes. However, the advanced scheme proved to be the most effective way of processing Triticale grain into baker’s grade flour

Polycomponent bran obtained by joint grinding of a grain mixture from cereals (wheat), legumes (lentils) and oilseeds (flax) should be considered as a valuable secondary raw material, the use of which for deep processing will make it possible to obtain various food and feed ingredients. An assessment of the carbohydrate-amylase and lipid complexes of the three variants of multicomponent bran showed that the ratio of amylose and amylopectin in the starch of three-component bran is almost the same, however, in lentil-flax bran, the proportion of amylose is 1.6 times higher than in the first two variants. The specific activity of amylases in three-component bran is about 2 times higher than in lentil-flax bran. In addition, the latter are characterized by a higher content of reducing sugars and fiber. The molecular weight of amylases isolated from three-component bran, according to gel chromatography, was: α-amylase — 40,000 Da; β-amylase — 60,000 Da. It has been established that the addition of flax seeds to the grinding mixture significantly increases the fat content in bran 6.4; 6.0 and 12.9%. The fatty acid composition of the studied bristles is characterized by the predominance of unsaturated fatty acids. At the same time, the ratio of essential acids — linoleic acid (ɷ‑6) to α-linolenic acid (ɷ‑3) in favor of the most deficient α-linolenic acid — was typical for lentil-flax bran and amounted to 1:4.2. The activity of alkaline lipases, which exhibit their effect at pH 8.0 (mainly cereal lipases), and acid lipases (mainly oilseed lipases) with an optimum of action at pH 4.7 in three-component bran samples are approximately the same, and lentil-flax bran is characterized by a high specific acid lipase activity, which is approximately 4.2 times higher than the activity of acid lipases of three-component bran. The data obtained, along with data on the characteristics of the protein-proteinase complex of the studied types of bran, will be used in the development of methods for enzymatic modification (deep processing) and in the preparation of components for the creation of new food products with increased nutritional and biological value.

Использование в различных отраслях пищевой и перерабатывающей промышленности продуктов переработки нетрадиционной зерновой культуры - тритикале в настоящее время привлекает все большее внимание, как производителей зерна, так ученых в нашей стране и за рубежом. Обусловлено это обстоятельство увеличением посевных площадей, созданием озимых сортов зерна тритикале, включенных в реестр сортов, многочисленными исследованиями технологического, биохимического и биологического потенциала зерна тритикале. В связи с этим целью наших исследований стало определение потенциальных мукомольных свойств новых сортов зерна озимого тритикале как сырья для производства тритикалевой муки различного назначения. Объектом исследований потенциальных мукомольных свойств озимого зерна тритикале являются 5 новых сортов - Консул, Капрал, Ацтек, Корнет и Топаз. Определение потенциальных мукомольных свойств новых сортов тритикале проводили на лабораторных мельницах РСА-4 с нарезными и гладкими, микрошероховатыми вальцами. На всех драных системах и вымольной системе использовали рифленые вальцы с расположением рифлей острие по острию, а на размольных системам использовали вальцы с гладкой микрошероховатой поверхностью. Установлено наличие 3-х этапов формирования тритикалевой муки, что достаточно четко видно из графиков кумулятивных кривых. Первый участок – измельчение центральной части эндосперма и включает в себя 3-4 потока.

Breeding improvement of triticale requires the search for genetic sources for hybridization. Our research aims at identifying high-yielding genotypes of winter triticale and determining the influence of structural elements on this indicator to optimizing selection during the breeding process. In 2014–2018, fifty variety samples of triticale were studied in the North Caucasus Federal Agricultural Research Centre. Soil – ordinary chernozem, medium loamy, medium-thick, low-humus. Black fallow preceded all × Triticosecale Wittmack samples. The experiment was laid having only one replication. The area of the plot was 1 m2. Triticale variety ‘Valentin 90’ served as a standard. We identified 25 medium-yielding and 25 high-yielding varieties. Grain yield in the first group was lower than in the second one and amounted to 784 ± 191 g/m2 and 1024 ± 202 g/m2, respectively. High-yielding samples exceeded the average-yielding ones in the number of spikelets (32.0 ± 2.17 and 31.2 ± 2.18 pieces), grains per ear (69.1 ± 13.0 and 64.5 ± 10.6 pieces) and weight of grain per ear (3.26 ± 0.61 and 3.00 ± 0.61 g). The yield and weight of grain per ear vary significantly (Cv > 20 %). Ear size, number of grains in the ear and spikelet, 1000 grain weight and triticale ear density do not vary much (Cv > 10 %). The most stable trait is the number of spikelets per ear (Cv < 10 %). A weak positive correlation was observed between the yield and number of grains per spikelet (r = 0.18 ± 0.06), yield and ear (r = 0.22 ± 0.06), as well as yield and weight of grain per ear (r = 0.29 ± 0.06). In the group of high-yielding variety samples, there was a reliable weak negative correlation between the yield and number of spikelets per ear (r = −0.32 ± 0.08), between the yield and ear density (r = −0.24 ± 0.09). Grain yield of more than 1.000 g/m2 had the following variety samples – ‘Ugo’, ‘RAH 121/04’, ‘Kitaro’, ‘Tewo’, ‘Ratne’, ‘Slavetne’, ‘Adas’, ‘Dar Belorussii’, ‘Dinamo’, ‘Dinaro’, ‘Liniya 71’, ‘Lamberto’, ‘PRAG 203/1’, ‘Nemchinovsky 1’ and ‘Valentin 90’ (standard).

The aim of this work was to assess the effects of temperature (T), time (t) and pH treatments and an in vitro digestion on the stability of the angiotensin I-converting-enzyme-inhibitory activity (ACEIA) and antithrombotic activity (ATA; assessed as inhibition of platelet aggregation) of selected protein hydrolysates of amaranth named Alb1H103 and GloH88 and GluH24 with dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitory activity (DPPIVIA). Heat treatment (40–100 °C) for 1 h showed no significant differences among ACEIA, DPPIVIA and ATA of the heated hydrolysates at pH 4 and 7. There was no statistically significant loss of any bioactivity under heat treatment for 3 h at pH 4.0. Alb1H103 and GluH24 maintained the inhibitory activity of ACE and ATA at pH 7.0 for 3 h, whereas GloH88 maintained ACEIA and ATA for 2.0 h at pH 7.0. The pH effect on hydrolysates bioactivity was assessed in the range of 2.0–12.0. This was negligible on ACEIA, ATA and DPPIVIA. The in vitro digestion was performed using pepsin, trypsin (T) and α-chymotrypsin (C). A previous treatment of hydrolysates with pepsin improved the proteolytic activities of T and C. The hydrolysates kept at 100 °C for 1 h at pH 4.0, showed a significant increase in bioactivity. Conversely, a treatment at pH 7.0 showed no significant difference (p < 0.05) in the hydrolysates bioactivities after their digestion. Thus, biological activity of hydrolysates may be preserved or enhanced, depending on their processing conditions.

Bioactive peptides are specific protein fragments which, above and beyond their nutritional capabilities, have a positive impact on the body’s function or condition which may ultimately influence health. Although, inactive within the sequence of the parent proteins, these peptides can be released during proteolysis or fermentation and play an important role in human health by affecting the digestive, endocrine, cardiovascular, immune and nervous systems. Several peptides that are released in vitro or in vivo from animal proteins have been attributed to different health effects, including antimicrobial properties, blood pressure-lowering (ACE inhibitory) effects, cholesterol-lowering ability, antithrombotic and antioxidant activities, opioid activities, enhancement of mineral absorption and/or bioavailability, cytomodulatory and immunomodulatory effects, antiobesity, and anti-genotoxic activity. Several functional foods based on the bioactivities of these peptides with scientifically evidenced health claims are already on the market or under development by food companies. Consumer’s increasing interest in these products has given an impetus to the food industry and scientific sector who are continuously exploring the possibilities for the development of new functional products based on these peptides. In this review, we describe above stated properties of bioactive peptides of animal origin.

Solubility characteristics and amino acid composition of the endosperm proteins of one line of Triticale, its durum wheat and rye parent cultivars, and one cultivar of hard red spring wheat were compared. Quantitative distribution of the soluble protein fractions and amino acid compositions showed that the proteins of Triticale are intermediate in these properties between analogous properties of the proteins of its durum wheat and rye parents. The major differences between the hard red spring wheat and the other three species were its lower content of water-soluble proteins and higher content of insoluble or gluten proteins. This appears lo be the main reason for the superior breadmaking quality of the hard red spring wheat cultivar compared with the other species used in this study.

Endogenous enzymes of wheat germ were inactivated by heating for 15 min at 105C in an oven. The germ was defatted using supercritical carbon dioxide, smashed and solubilized by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzyme hydrolysate was continuously stirred under conditions of optimum hydrolysis and centrifuged. Defatted wheat germ protein (DWGP) was obtained when the supernatant was spray-dried. The enzymes were used to enhance the solubilization of protein so as to increase the yield of DWGP. Alcalase and flavourzyme® solubilized 85 and 80% of the protein, respectively, while papain, neutrase and protamex solubilized 73, 66 and 61%, respectively. The functional properties of DWGP solubilized using alcalase were as follows: nitrogen solubility, 74% at pH 6; emulsifying activity, capacity and stability were 64, 62 and 57%, respectively. Water retention of DWGP solubilized using alcalase was 232% at pH 7 and temperature of 70C. DWGP is a potential source of functional protein for possible food applications.

This study investigated the potential of enzymes to increase soy protein extractability without causing protein degradation. The aqueous extraction of protein was performed from defatted soy flakes on a laboratory-and pilot-plant scale. Yields of protein and reducing sugars were determined in the alkali extracts obtained with cellulases and pectinase, added alone or as cocktails. Using 5% (wt/g of protein) Multifect pectinase resulted in the best improvement of protein yields, which were 50 and 17% greater than the controls in laboratory- and pilot-plant-scale trials, respectively. This enhanced protein extraction was accompanied by an increased reducing sugar content in the aqueous extract compared with the control. Under the conditions tested, no enzyme cocktail markedly increased the protein yield compared with the use of single enzymes. The solubility curve for Multifect pectinase-treated soy protein isolate (SPI) was typical of SPI at pH 2–10. Its foam stability significantly improved, but the emulsification properties declined. Multifect pectinase markedly reduced the viscosity of SPI. SDS-PAGE showed that the α’ and α subunits of β-conglycinin were modified, and glycoprotein staining showed that these modifications were probably due to a protease secondary activity in the pectinase preparation. One cellulase and one pectinase were identified as effective in modifying the protein and reducing sugar extractablity from the defatted soy flakes.

Soy peptides were characterized for flavor, chemical properties, and hydrophobicity to investigate their relationships with bitterness. Five peptide fractions ranging in average molecular mass from 580 to 11300 Da were fractionated by ultrafiltration from two commercial soy protein hydrolysates. The bitterness of fractionated peptides was related to molecular mass, with maximum bitterness observed at approximately 4000 Da for one hydrolysate and 2000 Da for the other. The bitterness increased as the peptide M(w) decreased to 3000 Da for the first hydrolysate and to 2000 Da for the second one and then decreased as the peptide M(w) decreased below 1000 Da. The peptide fraction with molecular mass of <1000 Da showed the lowest bitterness for both. The hydrophobicity data based on Q values do not support Ney's Q rule as a predictor of bitterness for soy peptides.

The objective of this study was to digest okara in high yield by food-processing enzymes. Autoclaving of okara was effective in increasing cellulase digestion for the primary cell wall, and the digestion was accelerated by the formation of single cells by stirring. Most of the residual okara after autoclaving and cellulase digestion was found to be the secondary cell walls compared with the cellulase-treated soybean single cells. The secondary cell wall was found to be composed of galacturonic acid, neutral sugars, and protein and was considered to be a complex of these compositions. Many cellulolytic and proteolytic enzymes could not digest the secondary cell wall; however, it was found that two pectinases could digest the secondary cell wall. A series of digestions resulted in yields of 83-85% from the raw okara, and the final residues were identified as oil body complexes in the soybean cells and fiber-like organ between the cells.
