DOIAbstract
The objective of this study was to characterize the physicochemical and functional properties of meals (M) and fibrous fractions (FRF) of chia seeds (Salvia hispanica L.), and to compare the effect of oil extraction methods (pressing -p- and solvent extraction -s-) and sieving process on these properties. Both processes affect the physicochemical and functional properties of residual meals and their corresponding fibrous fractions. Mp and FRFp showed a significantly higher residual oil content than Ms and FRFs (11.39, 10.85, 0.21 and 0.21 g/100 dry base, respectively). The sieving process of both meals allowed to obtain fibrous fractions with a significant increase of crude fiber (27.57, 32.84, 23.81 and 28.35 g/100 g in Ms, FRFs, Mp and FR...
