Effect of fermentation and malting on the microstructure and selected physicochemical properties of pearl millet Pennisetum glaucum flour and biscuit. This study investigated the effect of fermentation and malting on selected physicochemical, textural and microstructural changes in pearl millet Pennisetum glaucum flour and its resultant biscuit. Results obtained showed that both fermentation and malting significantly p lt 0. Ice Cream Flyer Vector on this page. The diffraction patterns on X ray diffraction XRD showed slight increase in the crystallinity of the fermented and malted millet flours, while baking resulted in a reduced crystallinity of the biscuit samples. The Fourier transform infrared FTIR spectra showed changes and increases in the band intensities, while the scanning electron microscopy SEM studies revealed that while fermentation and malting changed the microstructure of the native flour from an irregular compact granular structure to a regular loose structure, baking induced a distorted honey like comb structure to all the biscuit samples. Textural profile hardness also showed an increase in hardness from 5. N in the native biscuits to 1. N in the malted and fermented biscuit samples respectively. Conclusively, fermentation and malting modified and improved the physicochemical and possible nutritional properties of the flour and resultant biscuit.
