Abstract | ||
This study aimed to use four varieties of locally cultivated wheat , named : (Acsad/65 , Buhooth/5 ,sham/1 and sham/4), to determine the suitability of these varieties for making bulgur laboratically and studying some of the chemical ,nutritional & processing properties of these wheats and bulgur produced from them. The chemical composition showed increase of moisture content significantly to each of varieties Acsad/65 & Buhooth/5, they reached (11.700 and 11.650%), respectively . protein content was increased significantly at Acsad/65 & decreased significantly at Sham/4 (14.733 and 12.283%), respectively. There were non-significant differences in fat content for all varieties. Crude fiber value was high in variety Buhooth/5 (1.890 %), while there were non-significant differences between the other varieties .The highest & and lowest contents of carbohydrates were to Sham/1 &Acsad/65 which reached (71.240 and 69.120%) ,respectively. Results of minerals content Acsad/65 noticed an increase of Fe & Mg significantly in Sham/4 ,Acsad/65 (48.120 and 364.333 mg/100g), respectively. While the content of Mn, Ca and Zn was increased significantly at Buhooth/5 which amounted to (21.400 and 32.667 and 12.473 mg/100g) respectively. It was observed high content to each of vitamin B1 & B3 , their values were reached (0.674 and 0.218mg/g) respectively. While no significant diferences were observed in vitamin B1 contents . Result showed significant increase to all minerals in bulgur of Buhooth/5 , also to vitamins B1 & B2 in bulgur of Acsad/65 and for B3 content of bulgur Sham/4 . The study indicated the increasing of phenolic compounds significantly in cultivar Sham/4 & bulgur produced from Acsad/65 which reached (2.173 and 1.217mg/g) , respectively . Carotene pigment content showed high value significantly for Acsad/65 & Buhooth/5 wheat, the amounted to (0.030mg/g) to each of them, While there were non-significant differences of pigment value to all types of bulgur. | ||
