ResumoThe in vitro starch digestibility of five gluten-free breads (from buckwheat, oat, quinoa, sorghum or teff flour) was analysed using a multi-enzyme dialysis system. Hydrolysis indexes (HI) and predicted glycaemic indexes (pGI) were calculated from the area under the curve (AUC; g RSR/100g TAC*min) of reducing sugars released (RSR), and related to that of white wheat bread. Total available carbohydrates (TAC; mg/4 g bread "as eaten") were highest in sorghum (1634 mg) and oat bread (1384 mg). The AUC was highest for quinoa (3260 g RSR), followed by buckwheat (2377 g RSR) and teff bread (2026 g RSR). Quinoa bread showed highest predicted GI (95). GIs of buckwheat (GI 80), teff (74), sorghum (72) and oat (71) breads were significantly lower. Significantly higher gelatinization temperatures in teff (71 °C) and sorghum flour (69 °C) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) correlated with lower pGIs (74 and 72). Larger granule diameters in oat (3–10 μm) and sorghum (6–18 μm) in comparison to quinoa (1.3 μm) and buckwheat flour (3–7 μm) as assessed with scanning electron microscopy resulted in lower specific surface area of starch granules. The data is in agreement with predictions that smaller starch granules result in a higher GI.
