Naked barley flour(Baekdong cultivar) was examined with respect to its pasting properties by means of Brabender amylograph after adding barley lipids, fatty acids, vegetable oils and emulsifiers at 1% level. Amylogram of barley flour showed a similar gelatinization temperature but higher paste viscosities at all reference points as compared with wheat flour. Barley flour showed lower amylograph curves by defatting with n-hexane, namely reductions in initial gelatinization point, maximum viscosity and setback value. But re-addition of n-hexane extract to the defatted flour essentially reproduced the curve obtained in the undefatted flour. Addition of polar and nonpolar lipids exhibited different effects on the pasting properties of barley flour. Polar lipids generally increased maximum viscosity a little while non-polar lipids increased the maximum viscosity substantially. Addition of increasing amounts of nonpolar lipids was found to progressively increase the maximum viscosity. Addition of fatty acids increaed th maximum viscosity and delayed the peak time. The maximum viscosity of defatted barley flour impregnated with unsaturated fatty acids was higher than that of defatted barley flour impregnated with saturated fatty acids Increasing amounts of linoleic acid were fount to progressively increase the maximum viscosity and to delay the peak time of defatted barley flour. Addition of six vegetable oils lowered the gelatinization temperature and rasied the maximum viscosity and temperature at maximum viscosity. Addition of increasing amount of peanut oil was found to decrease the maximum viscosity. The effect of emulsifiers was greater in undefatted flour than in defatted flour. The maximum viscosity of defatted flour was slightly affected by Methocel 50, Methocel 1500 and Emulthin, and substantially increased by Methocel 4000, sodium polyacrylate and calcium stearyl lactylate.
