Implication

Demonstrates the nutritional improvement of gluten-free bread using melon seed and green lentil protein, suggesting a sustainable approach to food waste.

Key Points

The study aims to enhance gluten-free bread's nutritional and textural quality using melon seed powder and green lentil protein isolate.
Developed five gluten-free bread formulations with 10% green lentil protein isolate
Incorporated varying amounts of melon seed powder (5%, 10%, 15%)
Conducted analysis on chemical composition, mineral content, texture, and antioxidant capacity
Performed in vitro digestion to examine bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds
Increased protein, fat, and mineral content in bread with melon seed powder
Significant enhancement in total antioxidant activity and phenolic/flavonoid contents
Bioaccessibility of TPC and TFC increased significantly after digestion
Protocatechuic acid and catechin showed increased bioaccessibility post-intestinal digestion
