SEDIMANTATION DEVICE

THE SEDIMENTATION DEVICE

Settlement value (Sedimentation):
It is an important method, which is giving the gluten quality of the wheat. The sendimentation value shall vary acc orcling to the grinding technique. Due to this reason, if the sedimentation value to be determined for the wheat, the sample should be grinded in a standard method. The special mills should be used for the realization of the experiments to be made on the flour received from the wheat and should be screened through the screen with 150 micron and 9xx. The settlement value is the volume created by the settlement after duration due to the water absorbtion of the flour particles in definite efficiency and hugeness, which is located in weak aqueous acidic media. A quantity of 3.2 gr flour shall be weighed and put in a special sedimentation tube, and 50 ml bromephenol blue liquid shall be added, and then the tube shall be closed and shaked strongly. 25 ml test solution ( Lactic acid + isopropy + Water mixture) shall be added into the tube and then shaked for 5 minutes on a shaker. The tubes released from the shaker, and 5 minutes later, the settled flour amount shall be read from the scale on the tube as the sedimentation value, by avera~in~ the two parallels. This value shall be high and vary according to the gluten quality of the flour. While evaluating the bread making quality flour 15-20 ml is accepted as medium, 25-30 ml as good and above 30 as excellent quality.

Delayed Sedimentation Test:
This is a method, which shall be applied for the wheat affected by the hazardous insects and its product flour. Bromephenol blue liquid shall be added into the tube which the flour has put and then shakeci for 5 minutes, and then the tubes shall be located in a suitable place and keep for an hour and then preoceed with the experiment. If the value which is going to be determined is lower than the one determined with normal sedimentation method, it shall be understood that the wheat has been effected by the hazardous insects ( for example the delayed swedimentation value is 20-15-10 mland normal sedimentation value is ~25 ml ) however, if the value shall not be changed or increased, it means the quality of the wheat is good.
