Research Abstract |
This study has undertaken to analyze the quallty characteristics of buckwheat in view of molecular aspect. Chemical analyses with various buckwheat samples have shown that there are variations in content of components, that is, protein, starch and dietary fiber among buckwheat sampies examined. Mechanical analyses have shown that there are variations in mechanical values of buckwheat products among buckwheat samples examined. Sensory evaluation of buckwheat products may be closely associated with their mechanical characteristlcs. Furthermore, our analyses suggests that the sensory characteristics of buckwheat products may be closely associated for the chemical analytical values and the chemical forms of their components. Thus we suggest a molecular basis for the quality characteristics, including nutritional characteristics and palatability characteristics, of buckwheat through this study.
