May 7, 2024 · Furthermore, potato starch still exhibited a lower enzyme hydrolysis rate than wheat starch under the same gelatinization levels. Overall, potato starch is more resistant to hydrolysis and gelatinization in low-moisture environments, making potato starch suitable for low-digestibility products like potato biscuits or chips.
May 7, 2024 · Finally, the application of starch-based films in the food industry is discussed in detail. Different modifications of starch can improve the mechanical and barrier properties of the films. The addition of active substances to starch-based films can endow them with more functions.
May 16, 2024 · For example, α-amylase enzyme, which is commonly used in modified starch, like potato and pea, improves the structural and physicochemical properties, water solubility, swelling capacity, greater thermal stability, branching degree, amylopectin chain length distribution, and light transmittance, making it ideal for industrial applications .
May 16, 2024 · Abstract. Understanding the nuanced interplay between plant polyphenols and starch could have significant implications. For example, it could lead to the development of tailor-made starches for specific applications, from bakinag and brewing to pharmaceuticals and bioplastics.
May 16, 2024 · Abstract. The demand for starch is never-ending and is increasing at an alarming rate worldwide for its food and nonfood applications. However, native starch has some limitations, such as low gel strength, viscosity, water binding capacity, and thickening properties.
May 10, 2024 · The starch can be modified with ester and ether functionality and cross-linked with diether and diester through a chemical route. Similarly, the physiochemical modification process includes gelatinization, retrogradation, and pasting.
May 7, 2024 · Using renewable resources for food packaging not only helps reduce our dependence on fossil fuels but also minimizes the environmental impact associated with traditional plastics. Starch has been a hot topic in the field of current research because of its low cost, wide source and good film forming property. However, a comprehensive review in this field is still lacking. Starch-based films ...
