Abstract
Rheological properties of wheat flour were studied in the course of its processing (cooking and saccharification). The effects of commercial alpha-amylase preparations were compared during flour preparation. Test preparations were equally potent in decreasing the viscosity of an all-grain batch. Homogenous glucoamylases isolated from Aspergillus differed in the presence or absence of the starch-binding domain. The starch-binding domain provided for the high activity of glucoamylase on insoluble starch, but gave no advantages in saccharification of pretreated wheat flour.
