Novel trends in the market of fermented dairy products are leading to obtain various products with high functional and nutritive but less energy value. The development of new fermented dairy products could be divided into two groups in order to: 1. obtain products with improved physicochemical characteristics, rheology, texture, microstructure and sensory properties; 2. obtain products with pronounced nutritive characteristics and functionality. Yogurt is a very popular dairy product in most countries, it is consi...

Particle size is an essential concept in flour milling which influences dough rheological properties and food product quality. The grape seeds flours (GSF) obtained by further grinding grape seeds vary in particle size and differ in chemical composition. Grape seeds selected from red wine pomace and wheat flour of a low extraction rate of 480 type were used in samples formulation. The objective of this work was to investigate the influence of different particle sizes and addition levels of grape seeds flour (GSF) ...

The aim of this paper was to investigate the effect of defatted rapeseed flour addition from which proteins were extracted (DRF) on quality characteristics of bread as a finished product by baking test, rheological and microstructural examination. The dough rheological properties were determined by using the Alveograph device and its microstructure was analyzed by using the epifluorescence light microscopy (EFLM). Also, there were conducted analyses on the bread quality prepared from composite flour (wheat flour 6...

Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) has gained worldwide researchers attention as a unique and valuable plant, primarily for its medicinal and nutritional potential. The berries can be capitalized by their processing in order to obtain derived alimentary products such as, e.g. juice and jam, as well as used for flavoring of dairy products. The dried sea buckthorn berries and leaves are used for tea. Lately, due to the fact that consumers are more open to information, so their level of awareness is higher, ther...

Yogurt is widely consumed as functional food because of the good taste and nutritional properties (rich in potassium, calcium, protein and vitamins), being an excellent vehicle to deliver probiotics to consumers. However, its enrichment with various physiologically active ingredients could provide specific health benefits beyond basic nutrition. The reason for incorporating the sea buckthorn powder (SBP) in yogurt was to enhance its functionality, considering the sea buckthorn content in non-digestible oligosaccha...

Worldwide, the yogurt is a very popular fermented dairy food and it is known for its health benefits, nutritional value and digestibility. The factors that influence the quality of yogurt are milk composition, dry matter content, the temperature and time at which pre-treatment of the milk is carried out, the type and the quantity of starter culture used, incubation temperature and storage conditions for the final product. A major problem in the production of yogurt is the whey separation. In the yogurt industry, s...
