Amaranth belongs to the pseudocereal group. This pseudocereal does not contain gluten, and is suitable for a gluten-free diet. This paper aimed to examine how the partial replacement of wheat flour with amaranth in muffins at different ratios and with different storage times affects gluten proteins. Gluten protein separation was performed by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Based on the obtained results, the greatest total quantity of gliadin protein was obtained from muffin samples made from 100% wheat flour and stored for 4 weeks (Xav = 20.33), and the least from muffins made from 50% wheat flour and 50% amaranth and stored for 0 weeks (Xav = 12.00). The greatest total quantity of glutenin protein was obtained from muffin samples made from 100% wheat flour and stored for 4 weeks (Xav = 26.67), and the least from 25% wheat flour and 75% amaranth and stored for 0 weeks (Xav = 17.33).

This study presents a chemical and mineralogical analysis of stone samples from Jošanica quarry collected from three different locations—Field A, Field B, and Field C. Mineralogical analyses were conducted using XRD analysis. The analyses showed that calcite was the dominant mineral in most of the samples, while dolomite was significantly present in some of the samples. Chemical analysis revealed that calcium was dominant in samples 2 (Field B), 3a, and 3b (Field C), with only negligible amounts of magnesium. In contrast, samples 1a, 1b, and 1c (Field A) contained a significant amount of magnesium. Based on the MgCO₃ content, the amount of dolomite in the stone samples was calculated. The content of CaCO₃ in its bound form in dolomite was lower than that in the stone samples, indicating that CaCO₃ was present in another form. According to the dolomite content, samples 1a, 1b, and 1c (Field A) are classified as limestone–dolomite, while samples 2 (Field B), 3a, and 3b (Field C) are classified as limestone due to their high calcium carbonate content. The results of a mineralogical analysis confirmed the results of the chemical analysis.
