This study is aimed to investigate the possibility of using infrared-assisted microwave drying for production of bread crumbs and to determine drying conditions in halogen lamp-microwave combination oven to produce bread crumbs with the highest quality. Bread crumb dough were dried from about 40.9 to 8% moisture content by conventional, microwave, infrared and infrared-assisted microwave drying separately and in combinations. Halogen lamp and microwave power levels of 30, 50 and 70% were used. Percent reduction in the drying time were 80.2-94.0 for infrared, 96.5-98.6 for microwave and 96.8-98.6 for infrared-assisted microwave drying. Delta E values were lower in microwave drying and higher in infrared drying. Infrared-assisted microwave dried crumbs generally had similar color values with the conventionally dried ones. Effect of power on color change was not observed. All drying methods were found to be effective in increasing water binding capacity, which increased with microwave power in microwave drying but the influence of halogen lamp power was not seen in infrared drying. At fixed microwave (halogen lamp) powers increase of halogen lamp (microwave) power did not affect the water binding capacity in infrared-assisted microwave drying.

Optimization of bread baking in a halogen lamp-microwave combination oven by response surface methodology Demirekler, P; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-09-01) The main objective of this study was to optimize the baking conditions of bread in a halogen lamp-microwave combination oven. Independent variables were the baking time (4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, and 6 min), the power of the microwaves (20, 30, 40, 50, and 60%), and the power of the upper and lower halogen lamps (40, 50, 60, 70, and 80%). The quality parameters measured were the weight loss, the color, the specific volume, the porosity, and the texture profile of the breads. For the optimization, the response surface...
A study on the effects of different gums on dielectric properties and quality of breads baked in infrared-microwave combination oven Keskin, Semin Ozge; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-01-01) In this study, the effects of different gums on dielectric properties of doughs and breads baked in infrared-microwave combination oven were investigated. In addition, the quality parameters of breads formulated with different gums baked in infrared-microwave combination oven were determined. The gums used were xanthan, guar, xanthan-guar blend and kappa-carrageenan. The gums were added to the formulation at 0.5% concentration. The dielectric properties and quality parameters of breads baked in infrared-mic...
Infrared-assisted microwave drying in the production of bread crumbs Tireki, Suzan; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2005) This study is aimed to investigate the possibility of using halogen lamp-microwave combination oven for production of bread crumbs and to determine the drying conditions in this oven to produce bread crumbs with the highest quality. Bread crumb dough was dried from about 40.9% to 8% moisture content by conventional oven, microwave, infrared and infrared-assisted microwave drying. In the experiments 30%, 50% and 70% halogen lamp and/or microwave powers were used. As a control, conventional oven drying at 75°...
Usage of enzymes in a novel baking process Keskin, SO; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Wiley, 2004-04-01) In this study, the effects of different enzymes (a-amylase, xylanase, lipase, protease) on quality of breads baked in different ovens (microwave, halogen lamp-microwave combination and conventional oven) were investigated. It was also aimed to reduce the quality problems of breads baked in microwave ovens with the usage of enzymes. As a control, bread dough containing no enzyme was used. Specific volume, firmness and color of the breads were measured as quality parameters. All of the enzymes were found to b...
Functionality of batters containing different starch types for deep-fat frying of chicken nuggets Altunakar, B; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-03-01) The effect of various starch types (amylomaize, corn, waxymaize, pregelatinized tapioca) on quality attributes (texture, moisture content, oil content, color, coating pick up, cooking yield, volume and porosity) of deep-fat fried chicken nuggets were studied. Chicken samples, 0.04 m in diameter and 0.015 m in thickness, taken from the breast portion, were coated with batters composed of a 3:5 solid to water ratio by immersion. The solid content of batter formulations contained equal amounts of corn and whea...
