A western Canada field study investigated the effects of seeding date and rate on malting barley quality. Seeding date had little effect on quality. Increasing the seeding rate up to 300 seeds m-2 resulted in higher germination and Kolbach indices, lower β-glucan, and better endosperm modification without compromising malt extract.

Barley: Grain-Quality Characteristics and Management of Quality Requirements

Marta Izydorczyk; M. J. Edney

Abstract Barley is one of the world’s oldest and most versatile cereal crops. Barley matures under a short growing season allowing it to be grown under a diverse range of environments and geographical locations. The long history and wide spread of barley cultivation are responsible for a broad range of barley utilisation. The adaptability of barley to various growing conditions and the diversity of end uses, malting, feed and food, emphasise the need for broad quality assessment. The desired and required quality characteristics for malting barley have been defined to a much greater extent than those for food and feed barley. New methods for assessment and prediction of quality and value of barley grain are continually pursued, specifically for measuring the homogeneity of barley with instruments such as NIR and Single Kernel Characterization System (SKCS). The future of barley looks promising with beer consumption expected to continue to rise while health benefits are expected to increase consumers’ demand for high β-glucan food barley. Barley’s potential to grow under adverse conditions should be an asset in dealing with climate change but wild swings in the weather will further emphasise the need for quality assessment.

Determinación de la actividad endo-proteolítica en cebada malteada

Blanca Gómez Guerrero; M. J. Edney

Con el objetivo de contribuir al conocimiento del comportamiento de la madera de Eucalyptus tereticornis en Uruguay, se estudio la contraccion y el hinchamiento lineal y volumetrico para diferentes condiciones de humedad relativa, a una temperatura de 25 oC. Se construyo una isoterma parcial dandole importancia a las condiciones de humedad de equilibrio en las que es posible encontrar productos realizados con esta madera en Uruguay, por ejemplo, pisos interiores o exteriores. De cinco arboles de una cortina de 50 anos ubicada en el departamento de Durazno se seleccionaron discos a dos alturas. A partir de estas se prepararon probetas para las determinaciones de contraccion e hinchamiento. Se encontro que el peso especifico aparente basico fue de 0,630, al 12% de contenido de humedad fue de 0,859 y al 15 % de 0,872. La contraccion radial, tangencial y volumetrica fue de 7,04%, 14,70% y 20,64%, respectivamente, y el hinchamiento radial fue de 7,61%, el tangencial de 17,61% y 26,62% el volumetrico. Sobre la isoterma se observo una diferencia esperable entre la curva de sorcion y la de desorcion en el rango de humedad relativa estudiado de 53% a 84%.Se elaboraron hamburguesas de pescado a partir de desmenuzado de merluza (Merluccius hubbsi) con la incorporacion de transglutaminasa microbiana, con la finalidad de mejorar sus propiedades sensoriales y elaborar un producto pesquero que fomente el consumo de pescado en Uruguay. Se evaluo desde el punto de vista sensorial y de textura instrumental el efecto del agregado de la enzima en la formulacion de las hamburguesas. Se elaboraron tres tipos de hamburguesas: sin enzima y con incorporacion de 0,5% y 1,0% de enzima transglutaminasa, respectivamente. Para la evaluacion sensorial se analizaron las muestras con un panel de seis jueces entrenados y para la determinacion de los parametros de textura instrumental se utilizo un analizador de textura TA.XT2i. Los resultados de ambos estudios indicaron que el agregado de enzima mejoro sustancialmente la apariencia, la textura y el sabor del producto. Se obtuvo un producto pesquero innovador, con caracteristicas que pueden resultar muy atractivas para el consumidor uruguayo.
