酶在焙烤食品中的协同作用

Synergistic effects of bread-baking enzymes

在面包生产中采用麦芽和微生物α-淀粉酶,已有数十年的历史。随着焙烤工业的发展,以及消费者对天然食品的需求日益增加,酶在面包配方中所扮演的角色愈来愈重要。在生物科技的迅速发展下,可应用于焙烤工业的酶制剂不断问世,例如,能改进面团机械加工性能的纯木聚糖酶;可强化面筋,使形成的面团更为稳定,从而改进面包质量的脂酶;以及具有独特抗老化作用的麦芽糖α-淀粉酶。

New and rapid biotechnological developments have recently produced a number of new enzymes for the baking industry. Here we examine the effects of these enzymes and the synergistic effects when they are combined with either each other or with traditional enzymes.
