The study evaluated the effect of grape by-products (GP) on the chemical composition, soluble (SDF) and insoluble (IDF) dietary fibre, phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity (AA) and organoleptic characteristics of sourdough mixed rye bread. The following samples of sourdough mixed rye bread were prepared: control bread (BC) and breads with GP at four different levels: 4%, 6%, 8% and 10%. Addition of GP significantly improves dietary fraction contents, as bread with a 10% addition of GP accounts for 39% and 37% higher contents of IDF and SDF than BC. The assay of radical-scavenging activity and reducing ability showed that GP addition greatly enhanced antioxidant properties of mixed rye breads. Profiles of phenolic compounds of supplemented breads were dominated by procyanidin B1 and B2, catechin, epicatechin, caffeic acid and myricetin. With an increase in the level of GP, the hardness and gumminess of the bread significantly increase. Although both BC and supplemented breads showed common volatile compound profiles, there were slight differences in the concentrations of those components. Sensory evaluation of GP-enhanced breads revealed that a maximum of 6% GP could be incorporated to prepare acceptable products.

This study had the objective of determining the effects of the addition of different ingredients and grape by-products (GP) to muffins on CML content. It was found that ingredients, such as salt, baking powder and protein-rich components, reduced CML from 50% to 86%. The use of all ingredients simultaneously caused the highest reduction in CML, suggesting synergistic effects in the muffin formula. Raw cane sugar produced higher amounts of CML than refined sucrose, probably due to metal-ion mediated degradation of fructoselysine. The CML content was correlated with the level of oleic acid at -0.829 and with the level of linoleic acid at 0.913. Muffins enriched with appropriate levels of GP (20%) showed a lowering of the CML level and no significant changes in the sensory profile. GP added to the model system with protein-rich ingredients resulted in the weakest inhibitory effects, probably due to the polyphenol-protein binding mechanism.
