Abstract

This study evaluated the bioactive, nutritional and sensory attributes of pasta developed from composite flours of wheat and germinated brown rice (GBR). Pasta was prepared using wheat-GBR flour blends at 70:30 and 50:50 ratios, with GBR germinated for 12, 24 and 36 hours and 100% wheat pasta as the control sample. Results for the bioactive compounds such as TPC, TFC and GABA increased significantly with germination time. The 36 h 50:50 W-GBR sample consistently showed the highest nutritional and functional value.
