THE RELEVANCE AND COMPETITIVENESS OF TECHNOLOGY PRODUCTS WITH REDUCED ALLERGENICITY ON THE BASIS OF THE EXAMPLE OF BREADMAKING

 

Today the issue regarding the manufacture of products with reduced allergenicity. On the background of the global integration of systems and processes, methods of development and production of new techniques, using which, we can achieve astonishing results in this field and contribute to the development of the industry that would help to reach the world level of competition with other countries that have long been concerned with this issue. In the enormous speed of scientific and technological progress and scientific development, yet the problem of the production of hypoallergenic products remains, unfortunately, little studied.

In the modern world there is a need of studying the topic of products with reduced allergenicity, due to the increased number of people suffering from various diseases or with intolerance or failure of the processing of certain products. That is what inspired people to developments of this kind. Moving in this matter, we can say that the development of hypoallergenic products in the field of breadmaking.

In modern life, the bread plays a significant role. The share of bakery products in the human diet depends on its habits, as well as from economic and social opportunities. In most developed countries the consumption of bread amounts to 20-25 % of the total weight of food consumed.

Bakery products are the main sources of energy and nutrients. They provide the needs of human proteins at 25-30 %, carbs 30-40, vitamins (especially b group), mineral substances and food fibers by 20-25 %.

In the production of bakery products as an additional use of the following raw materials:

- sugar and sugar-containing products;

- fat-containing foods;

- milk and its products;

- products of soybean processing, rice;

- eggs and egg products;

- malt;

- nuts, raisins, spices;

- fruit and vegetable raw materials;

- sweeteners, sugar substitutes, etc.

Bakery products – one of the most important food throughout the world, and for the population of Russia and many Slavic peoples, for centuries and to this day are a significant component of the diet. The amount of bakery products is also dependent on health status, i.e. their existing consumer diseases. To violations related to the necessity of reduction/exclusion of bakery products from the diet and placing special requirements to their composition, can be attributed to the disease:

- cardiovascular system (ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, hypertension, chronic cardiovascular insufficiency);

- endocrine (obesity, hypothyroidism, diabetes, phenylketonuria);

- connective tissue (rheumatism);

- hepatic biliary system (hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatic encephalopathy, pancreatitis, etc.);

- gastrointestinal tract (stomach ulcer and duodenal ulcer, gastritis, chronic enteritis, celiac disease, etc.).

A special group of disorders are food allergies – diseases, which has an acquired or congenital nature, the result of stressful conditions or genetic predisposition. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease associated with intolerance to proteins in cereal crops (rye, barley, wheat). Often, celiac disease is accompanied by the presence of allergies to raw ingredients, to a large extent, the nature of protein – soy, egg, dairy. This fact restricts the use of the above named ingredients in the technology of production of gluten-free products.

In the 21st century Allergy has become one of the most common diseases. The number of people suffering from one or another kind of Allergy is growing, especially in large industrial centers, where citizens are more likely to experience illnesses associated with allergies.

Power in wide spread allergy plays a big role. The proper nutrition depends on many things, in our time, has increased the consumption of processed foods, fast food products with a variety of chemical additives that are potentially dangerous allergens [2].

The number of people who are allergic to various products has increased, including bread with biologically active additives, which are necessary nutritious product for children and adults.
The development of the baking industry is based on introduction of new equipment, progressive technologies, increase production of bread and bakery products with various additives and improvers, which increase biological value and quality [3]. 
Baking industry is one of the leading food industries and provides about 10% of the revenue for the entire food industry. Volume retail sales of bakery products will be in 2016 over 500 billion rubles. For this indicator, it ranks the 4th place among the food products after meat products, dairy products and confectionery. Bread is a unique food product that contains almost all of the components necessary to sustain life and health: proteins, complex carbohydrates, calcium, iron, phosphorus and essential B vitamins, including thiamin, Niacin and Riboflavin, with a small amount of fat. Bakery products contain high amounts of fiber. In addition, bread is a handy product to enrich it with vitamins, micronutrients and other healthy substances.

The range of bakery products produced in our country, is a few hundred different in appearance, taste and nutritional value of varieties. This is because bread is produced from flour of different outlets and varieties, in different formulations and applying different technological methods [1].

When assessing the quality of the bread, the consumer pays special attention not only on the product but also on crust colour, condition and form of the product, indicators of their texture of the crumb. Given the fact that people celicia and patients with a known allergy to proteins contained in bakery products, the most important is how many allergens are preserved in the final product, bread with desired performance can only be assured by identifying the most dangerous allergens [4].

The specialists of the food industry are specific objectives to develop technologies not only baking, but also in other industries. The objective is not only to save raw materials, material and energy , but also to increase energy and biological value of products and reducing losses of raw materials, and at the same time, significantly improve the quality, taste qualities of food products, improve their range.

Anti-Allergy bread must conform to the state Standards, manufactured from high quality raw materials with application of technological processes that ensure the production of high quality products, because bakery products are included in the diet and to a certain extent, affect human health [6].

The production of Allergy-free bread products is a promising direction of development in bakery industry. With the advent of new technologies that allow to create products with desired properties, increases the production of functional purpose products, such as bakery products, considered in this work. Products with reduced allergenicity are becoming more popular in the market of functional foods. Such products are designed not only for people suffering from the relevant diseases with pathological processes and can be used for the prevention of food allergy for any healthy person.
