The objective of the present study was to analyse the influence of particle size distribution of maize flour in the formulation of gluten-free cookies. Different cookie formulations were made with three distinct maize flour fractions obtained by sieving (less than 80 µm; between 80 and 180 µm; greater than 180 µm). Cookies dimension, texture and colour …
It is demonstrated that the particle size of WWF plays a critical role in determining both bread quality and digestibility. Whole-wheat flour (WWF) is increasingly popular because of the health benefits of whole grains. This study investigated the effect of WWF particle size on dough properties, bread quality and in vitro starch digestibility. …

The average particle size of the flours produced by the milling of the whole grains were the following: 194.9 µm, fine whole grain wheat flour (FG); 609.4 μm, medium whole grain …
What is particle size? Also known as granularity, particle size is a quality control parameter of a cereal flour after it is milled. The particle size of granular materials is commonly referred to as diameter, which is usually measured by geometric methods (microscopy, or by sieving a representative amount of sample).1 The particle size of a …
Background and objectives The particle size of wheat flours contributes to the quality of wheat flour products. Wheat flour of particle size ranging from 358 to 17 µm was produced by the milling and...
The particle size index (PSI) is an indicator of wheat milling and baking performance associated with wheat kernel hardness and flour granularity. The hardness of the wheat kernel has tremendous implications in its milling and baking qualities.
A hard-wheat, 90% patent flour was air-classified in six particle size ranges and the separated fractions analyzed for particle size distribution, ash, protein, maltose value, gassing power, and viscosity as measured by the amylograph.
Wholegrain flour produced by roller-milling is predominantly comprised of fine particles, while stoneground flour tends to have a comparatively smaller proportion of fine particles. Differences in flour particle size distribution can affect postprandial glycaemia in people with type 2 diabetes and p …
As a child, you may have made suspensions such as mixtures of mud and water, flour and water, or a suspension of solid pigments in water, known as tempera paint. ... Particles of colloidal size are formed by two methods: Dispersion methods: breaking down larger particles. For example, paint pigments are produced by dispersing large particles by ...
The particle size distribution of a given material is an important analysis parameter in quality control processes and research applications, because many other product properties are directly related to it. Particle size distribution influences material properties like flow and conveying behavior (for bulk materials), reactivity, abrasiveness ...

Cereal Chem 65:384-389 | VIEW ARTICLE Effects of Damaged Starch, Chlorine Gas, Flour Particle Size, and Dough Holding Time and Temperature on Cookie Dough Handling Properties and Cookie Size.
Highlights • Reducing WWF particle size increased dough resistance to extension and extensibility. • Reducing WWF particle size resulted in shorter dough …
Consumers' interest in healthy products is increasing. However, the production of excellent-quality whole wheat bread (WWB) faces challenges due to the reduced gluten functionality and varied particle sizes of whole wheat flour (WWF). This study aimed to explore the enhancement of purple-colored WWB quality by controlling …
ABSTRACT. In the present study, the effect of particle size (PS) on phenolic acid content and proximate composition (moisture, ash, protein, total fat, crude fiber and total …

The present study investigated the microstructure and distribution of bulk and surface chemical composition in wheat flour particles of different size. Eight samples of …
In vitro digestibility of starch in sorghum grains differing in endosperm hardness and flour particle size was investigated. The starch digestibility increased as the particle size of flour decreased, but no clear trend was observed in digestibility of starch in sorghum flours milled from grains with different hardness.
The effect of particle size on the physicochemical and noodle quality of wheat flours was investigated. Granular wheat flour was ground by adjusting the distance between the rolls (0.02, 0.04, 0.06, ...
The rheological properties and microstructure of doughs, and the texture properties of whole wheat breads and noodles were investigated. The gluten strength of doughs were discriminated due to wheat cultivar. Reduced flour particle size led to the doughs with a stronger gluten strength (i.e., smalle …
