ABSTRACT
Microbial 3- and 6-phytases A at 5000 FTU/kg, and their combinations with phytase B at 30 AcPU/g, were tested as breadmaking improvers in baking of wholemeal rye breads. Both phytases A increased bread volumes and the subsequent addition of phytase B amplified the effect. 6-Phytase A alone, and, especially in combination with phytase B, significantly reduced crumb firmness and chewiness. The improvements in texture were preserved during 3 days of storage. 6-Phytase A, but not 3-phytase A, reduced fat content of breads by more than 50 %, and slightly decreased protein concentration. In breads supplemented with 0.2% of myo-inositol, similar, although less pronounced, changes in fat and protein content were observed.
Key words: rye bread, 3- and 6-phytase A, phytase B, texture, antistaling.
