Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Barley by-products obtained by air classification have been used to produce different barley functional spaghetti which were compared to different commercial whole semolina samples. Total, insoluble and soluble fiber and β-glucans content of the barley spaghetti were found to be greater than those of commercial samples. Furthermore, it was proved that barley spaghetti reached the FDA requirements which could allow these pastas to deserve the health claims "good source of dietary fiber" and "may reduce the risk of heart disease". When barley coarse fraction was used, a flavan-3-ols enrichment and an increase of antioxidant activity were reported, while commercial samples showed the absence of flavan-3-ols and a higher presence of phenolic acids and tannins. Whole semolina commercial spaghetti had significantly higher content of phenolic acids than semolina spaghetti samples. Besides, it was observed that when vital gluten was added to spaghetti formulation, phenolic compounds were blocked in the gluten network and that were partially released during the cooking process.
