The aim of this study was to compare the role of protein quantity and aggregate stretching degree in predicting dough stability and extensibility using the regression analysis, and to explore a more effective way of conducting the prediction. Flours from 28 milling streams of the wheat cultivar Shiluan 02-1 were collected as experimental material. Using the value of (ash content/L*) (L* – lightness), we sorted the milling streams flour from the inner layer to the outer layer of wheat kernel, which was divided into early reduction, later reduction, and break flours. Three regression models, quantity-based, stretching-degree-based and (quantity × stretching-degree)-based model for predicting dough stability and extensibility were evaluated in each category of milling streams through their coefficient of determination (R2). Certain patterns were observed in physicochemical properties of flour from different categories of milling streams. Despite those considerable changes, the quantity-based model broadly produced greater R2 values than the stretching-degree-based model, and the (quantity × stretching-degree)-based model could in general provide higher R2 values than the other two models on predicting dough stability and extensibility. The results suggest that measuring the protein quantity and aggregate stretching degree at the same time is of practical improvement in dough rheology evaluation, compared to focusing on either factor alone.
