Levels of a-amylase/trypsin inhibitors were higher in DL from
fermented dough and DL from flour-water dough with added salt
and sugar than in DL from flour-water dough. Salt et al. (2005)
stated that the abundantly present a-amylase/trypsin inhibitors
in DL play a major role in foam stabilization. Little information is
available on the surface activity of these wheat proteins, except for
that of the a-amylase inhibitor subunit CM3, which forms stable
viscoelastic films at the airewater interface (Gilbert et al., 2003).
