ABSTRACT
Nutrient digestibility in rye breads baked with the addition of microbial 3- and 6-phytases A at 5000 FTU/kg, and their combinations with phytase B at 30 AcPU/g, were evaluated in vitro and in growing rats. In comparison to rye flour, phytate content in the control bread, bread baked with 3-phytase A, and bread baked with 6-phytase A, was reduced by 91, 91, and 98 %, respectively. 3-Phytase A enhanced phosphorus retention and metabolic balances in rats and exerted detrimental effects on metabolic parameters of calcium. The effect was stimulated by a subsequent addition of phytase B. The opposite was true for 6-phytase A that repressed phosphorus and preserved calcium metabolic balances in rats. As compared to rats fed control breads, improved HDL/TC ratios were found in plasma of animals that consumed breads prepared with 3- or 6- phytase A, or with 6-phytase A and phytase B. Rats fed breads supplemented with 6-phytase A and phytase B had lowered contents of total lipids, triacyloglicerols, and total cholesterol in sera. Microbial phytases, and particularly 6-phytase A and phytase B, open new perspectives in applications of biocatalysts in baking.
Key words: rye bread, phytase A, phytase B, phytate, rat, calcium metabolism, serum cholesterol.
