The main aim of this master thesis is to improve bread formulations based mainly on (pseudo)-cereals by addition of arabinoxylans. Selected sourdough starter cultures will be used to achieve required conditions for baking. Thereby, activation of enzymes from (pseudo)-cereals by pH reduction will promote dough formation and enhance baking quality in various ways. Results will be available for publication.
