(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The pH, density, water absorption index, color, viscosity, particle size, and chemical composition of nine, U.S. and Mexican, nixtamalized, instant maize (NIM) flours, measured in 1983 were different (p = 0.05) from those ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)A dry process, using hot air jets to cook tempered corn for dry masa flour production, was developed and evaluated. The new process required less energy and water than the method (nixtamalization) presently used. The effect ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Five commercial processes for alkaline-cooking of corn were studied in two plants which produce corn tortillas, tortilla chips and corn chips. Corn is cooked and steeped in water containing lime to hydrate and soften the ...

(2012-10-19)In wheat (Triticum aestivum L), high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW -GS) are synthesized by the loci Glu-A1, Glu-B1, and Glu-D1 on the long arm of group 1 chromosome, and their variants play a significant role in ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)The nutritional values of maize (MZ), whole sorghum (WS) and pearled sorghum (PS) tortillas were evaluated with ileum cannulated pigs, weanling rats and three in vitro assays. The experiment carried out with pigs was ...
