Abstract
This study investigated the changes in the physical properties of cornstarch-based films as they were retrogradely aged at different temperatures. Using a casting method, the films were fabricated, and their effects on the mechanical properties, thermal stability, barrier properties, and essential properties were analyzed. With prolonged aging and retrogradation periods, reductions in film thickness, solubility, water content, and water vapor permeability of 5.35%, 9.92%, 29.61%, and 20.94%, respectively, were observed. In addition, the surface roughness decreased by 44.46% for Rq (root-mean-square roughness) and 45.61% for Ra (arithmetic average roughness), while the elongation at break decreased by 72.64%. Conversely, the tensile strength, maximum degradation rate, and maximum degradation temperature increased by 116.98%, 99.5%, and 3.21%, respectively. These results provide a fundamental understanding of the changes that occur in the properties of cornstarch-based films during aging and retrogradation.

Retrogradation inhibition and intragranular distribution in cooked rice by addition of α-glucosidase (AG) and branching enzyme (BE). Food Chem 2024; 456:140049. [PMID: 38878545 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
The effect of inhibiting retrogradation and changes in chain length distribution by AG and BE, which are texture-modifying enzymes, has been clarified. To ascertain in which part of the rice grain retrogradation occurs and which enzymes is most effective, the degree of retrogradation in each part of the rice grain was measured from the surface to the core of the same rice grain using a synchrotron radiation X-ray beam with a beam size of 100 μm. Retrogradation was effectively suppressed at all measurement sites by enzyme addition, although the effect of enzymes was greater at the surface. Rice grain sections were stained with iodine and eosin. A starch layer that does not easily form a complex with iodine was observed inside the protein layer at the surface of cooked rice. A starch layer with a long molecular chain that forms complexes with iodine was observed inside the rice grain.

Heat moisture treatment and ultrasound-induced hydrothermal wheat starch modification: Techno-functional, microstructural and quality 3D printed characteristics. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133992.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of hydrothermal process, ultrasound and combined freezing-ultrasound process on the physical and structural characteristics of wheat starch (Triticum aestivum) was investigated. Two heat-moisture treatments for 2 h (HMT2) and 4 h (HMT4), high-intensity, high-frequency ultrasound under two treatment times (10 to 20 min) (UT10 and UT20) as pre-treatment and sonication after freezing as post-treatment (FUT) on wheat starch suspension was applied. The modifications of starch crystallinity, chemical bonds of starch treated, morphology, thermal, swelling, pasting, and physicochemical characteristics were evaluated. Finally, the starches treated under these conditions were used as ink for a 3D printer, and the characteristics of the printed product were evaluated. The results demonstrate that heat-moisture modified starch increased swelling and size of granules and lowered syneresis values. Sonication promoted molecular depolymerization and reduction of starch swelling and crystallinity. Combined treatment (Sonication and freezing) showed higher peak apparent viscosity during gelatinization and pasting, and the FUT starch-based hydrogels showed the best printability (better ability to stack layers on top of each other and build the desired 3D shape), indicating better reproducibility of this ink. These results showed that FUT is a suitable process for improving the synergy and properties of wheat starch-based hydrogels, which are suitable as inks for use in 3D printers.

Obadi M, Xu B. A review of the effects of physical processing techniques on the characteristics of legume starches and their application in low-glycemic index foods. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 279:135124. [PMID: 39208910 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2024] [Revised: 08/06/2024] [Accepted: 08/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Physical processing techniques significantly influence the characteristics of legume starch, consequently affecting the potential applications of legume-based products. This review comprehensively examines the impact of various physical processing techniques on legume starch properties, including structure, granule morphology, gelatinization, pasting properties, solubility, and in vitro digestibility. Furthermore, it evaluates the implications of these processing methods for utilizing legumes in developing low-glycemic index (GI) foods. Notably, certain physical processing methods, such as heat-moisture treatment, ultrahigh-pressure processing, dry heat treatment, and gamma irradiation, under specific conditions, enhance the resistant starch or slowly digestible starch fractions in legume starches. This enhancement is particularly advantageous for producing low-GI foods. Conversely, techniques like annealing, extrusion, ultrasound, and germination increase starch digestibility, which is less favorable for low-GI food applications. This review also provides an up-to-date overview of the use of diverse preprocessed legume products in low-GI food production. The novelty of this review lies in its detailed comparative analysis of physical processing methods and their specific effects on legume starch digestibility, which has not been extensively covered in existing literature. The comprehensive insights presented herein will benefit the legume industry by informing effective strategies for converting legume starch into valuable low-GI products.

Abstract
In order to delay the retrogradation of rice starch, the effects of three different chain length fatty acids (lauric acid, myristic acid and palmitic acid) on rice starch were studied. The fatty acids with longer carbon chains had strong steric hindrance and hydrophobicity, which formed a more compact structure in the helical cavity of amylose, and significantly reduced degree of expansion, migration of water, short-range ordered structure, number of double helical structures and crystallinity. These structural changes endowed the rice starch-long chain fatty acid complexes with better gel viscosity, liquid fluidity and thermal stability than in the rice starch-short chain fatty acid complexes. The results showed that fatty acids with longer chain length inhibited the retrogradation of rice starch, most obviously when 5% palmitic acid was added. This study provides an important reference for the processing of rice starch-based foods.

Abstract
The present research was conducted to explore the potential of mango kernel starch from the Chaunsa variety to develop starch and starch nanoparticles (SNPs) based films. The investigation included starch isolation from mango kernel followed by the preparation of SNPs by acid hydrolysis and a thorough examination of various physicochemical properties for film formation. The properties of SNPs were found to be distinctly different from those of native starch. SNPs exhibited an aggregated form with an irregular surface, whereas native starch had an oval and elongated shape with a smooth surface. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that the starch type in SNPs was of the A-type. Additionally, the pasting properties of SNPs were minimal due to the acid hydrolysis process. SNP-based composite film was developed with (5 %) SNP concentration added. This successful incorporation of SNPs enhanced biodegradability, with complete degradation occurring within three weeks. Moreover, the composite films displayed increased burst strength, measuring 1303.51 ± 73.7 g, and lower water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) at (7.40 ± 0.50) × 10-3 g per square meter per second and reduced water solubility at 35.32 ± 3.0 %. This development represents a significant advancement in the field of eco-friendly packaging materials.

Abstract
With the increased environmental concerns and health awareness among consumers, there has been a notable interest in plant-based dairy alternatives. The plant-based yogurt market has experienced rapid expansion in recent years. Due to challenges related to cultivation, higher cost of production and lower protein content researchers have explored the viability of pulse-based yogurt which has arisen as an economically and nutritionally abundant solution. This review aims to examine the feasibility of utilizing pulse protein for yogurt production. The nutritional, antinutritional, and functional characteristics of various pulses were discussed in detail, alongside the modifications in these properties during the various stages of yogurt manufacturing. The review also sheds light on pivotal findings from existing literature and outlines challenges associated with the production of pulse-based yogurt. Pulses have emerged as promising base materials for yogurt manufacturing due to their favorable nutritional and functional characteristics. Further, the fermentation process can effectively reduce antinutritional components and enhance digestibility. Nonetheless, variations in sensorial and rheological properties were noted when different types of pulses were employed. This issue can be addressed by employing suitable combinations to achieve the desired properties in pulse-based yogurt.

Abstract
In this study, we examined the possibility of using industrial microwave processing to enhance the gelling properties and reduce the starch digestibility of mung bean flour (MBF). MBF (12.6 % moisture) was microwaved at a power of 6 W/g to different final temperatures (100-130 °C), and then its structural and functional properties were characterized. The microwave treatment had little impact on the crystalline structure or amylose content of the starch, but it roughened the starch granule surfaces and decreased the short-range ordered structure and degree of branching. In addition, the extent of mung bean protein denaturation caused by the microwave treatment depended on the final temperature. Slightly denaturing the proteins (100 °C) did not affect the nature of the gels (protein phase dispersed in a starch phase) but the gel network became more compact. Moderately denaturing the proteins (110-120 °C) led to more compact and homogeneous starch-protein double network gels. Excessive protein denaturation (130 °C) caused the gel structure to become more heterogeneous. As a result, the facilitated tangles between starch chains by more linear starch molecules after debranching, and the protein network produced by moderate protein denaturation led to the formation of stronger gel and the improvement of plasticity during large deformation (large amplitude oscillatory shear-LAOS). Starch recrystallization, lipid complexion, and protein network retard starch digestion in the MBF gels. In conclusion, an industrial microwave treatment improved the gelling and digestive properties of MBF, and Lissajous curve has good adaptability in characterizing the viscoelasticity of gels under large deformations.

Abstract
This work aimed to characterize and compare the physicochemical properties of four pulse starches: bean, chickpea, lentil, and pea. Chemical proximate analysis, elemental composition, morphological grain characterization, crystalline structure, thermal analysis, FTIR analysis, and pasting properties were conducted. The proximate analysis shows that these starches have low fat, mineral, and protein content but high amylose values ranging from 29 to 36 % determined by colorimetry. Despite the high amylose content, the starches did not exhibit the typical behavior of an amylose-rich starch, with high peak viscosity and low breakdown and setback. It was found that this behavior was likely due to the large granule size of the ellipsoidal, spherical, and kidney-shaped granules and the high content of some minerals such as Na, Mg, K, Fe, Mn, P, and Si. The study also found that all pulse starches simultaneously contain monoclinic and hexagonal crystals, making them C-type starches. The findings were verified through the Rietveld analyses of X-ray diffraction patterns and differential scanning calorimetry, in which bimodal endothermic peaks evidenced both types of crystals being gelatinized.

Abstract
There has been an increase in the use of adoptable bioprocessing methods for the development of high-quality leguminous ingredients. The potential use of germinated green Altamura lentils as a food ingredient is closely related to the resulting properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of three germination times - 0 (C), 24 (G) and 48 (H) hours - on the physicochemical, microstructural, flavour, functional, and nutritional features of lentil flour samples (CF, GF and HF). Lentil flour samples were obtained by grinding both whole green seeds (C) and germinated seeds (G and H), and then sifting them to obtain a particle size < 300 μm. The germinated samples - GF (24 h) and HF (48 h) - exhibited differences (P < 0.05) in the physicochemical and bioactive properties of CF (control). Similarly, compared with those in the control sample, the total starch, amylose and total phenolic contents in the GF and HF samples decreased, while the protein content increased (p < 0.05). A decrease in the presence of intact starch granules was observed via SEM in the germinated samples. The germination time had a significant (P < 0.05) effect on the colour indices, L*, a*, and b* of the samples. Flavour attributes were significantly influenced by the germination time. Overall, a total of 14 (CF) and 17 (GF and HF) aromatic compounds were identified. The technological characteristics of the CF, GF and HF dough samples were studied using a Brabender farinograph. Germination time affects the flour properties, leading to a significant decrease in farinographic parameters such as water absorption (WA), dough development time (DT), and dough stability (DS) and an increase in the degree of dough weakening (DOS). Differential scanning calorimetry was employed to examine the gelatinization transition of the samples. Germination strongly influenced all the thermal properties of the samples. It also had a significant impact on the in vitro starch digestibility, starch fraction and glycaemic index (eGI) of the samples. In particular, the eGI of germinated lentils was lower than that of the CF. In conclusion, the germination time could be a key factor modulating some crucial lentil flour properties.

Abstract
Plant-based milk (PBM) alternatives are gaining popularity worldwide as the change of consumers' nutritional habits and health attitudes. Mung beans, recognized for their nutritional value, have gained attention as potential ingredients for PBM. Nevertheless, mung bean-based milk (MBM) faces instability issues common to other plant-based milks. This study investigated the factors influencing MBM stability focusing on raw materials. We selected 6 out of 20 varieties based on their MBM centrifugation sedimentation rates, representing both stable and unstable MBM. Stable MBM exhibited distinct advantages, including reduced separation rate, smaller particle size, lower viscosity, fewer protein aggregates, higher soluble protein content, and increased consumer acceptance. Major nutritional components such as protein, starch, and lipids were not significant different between stable and unstable MBM varieties. The pivotal distinction may lay in the protein properties and composition. Stable MBM varieties exhibited significantly improved protein solubility and emulsion stability, along with elevated concentrations of legume-like acidic subunits, basic 7S proteins, and 28 kDa and 26 kDa vicilin-like subunits. The increasement of these proteins likely contributed to the improvement in protein characteristics that affect MBM stability. These findings offer valuable insights for raw material selection and guidance for future mung bean breeding to enhance mung bean milk production.

Ye SJ, Baik MY. Physicochemical properties of amorphous granular starch (AGS) prepared by non-thermal gelatinization by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and spray drying. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 260:129508.

Abstract
Corn starch was gelatinized by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and spray drying to make amorphous granular starch (AGS), and their physicochemical properties were compared with the conventionally prepared (heat-gelatinized and spray dried) AGS to devise a novel AGS preparation methodology. Pressure-induced (PAGS) and heat-induced AGS (HAGS) maintained their granular shape but lost their birefringence indicating that both methods could prepare AGS. DSC (differential scanning calorimeter) and XRD (X-ray diffraction) analysis confirmed the complete loss of amylopectin double helices and crystallinity of both PAGS and HAGS. However, their swelling power, solubility, RVA pasting properties, acid/shear stability, gel forming ability and textural properties were completely different. PAGS exhibited constrained swelling, suppressed amylose leaching, and reduced viscosity. Notably, HAGS formed a gel without heating, whereas PAGS yielded a viscous paste with water-soluble attributes. Even after reheating, PAGS maintained its granular structure with comparably less swelling and weaker gel strength than HAGS. Consequently, newly developed PAGS exhibited distinctive characteristics compared to the conventional HAGS, such as lower solubility and swelling power, viscosity, textural properties, and high acid and shear stabilities, rendering it a viable option for various applications within the food industry.

Effects of Extrusion Technology on Physicochemical Properties and Microstructure of Rice Starch Added with Soy Protein Isolate and Whey Protein Isolate. Foods 2024; 13:764.

Abstract
In order to improve the retrogradation of rice starch (RS) and the quality of rice products, soy protein isolate (SPI), whey protein isolate (WPI), and rice flour were mixed and further extruded into mixed flour. The physicochemical properties and morphology of starch of extruded rice flour (ERS) and starch of extruded mixtures of SPI, WPI, and rice flour (SPI-WPI-ERS) were analyzed. The distribution of amylopectin chain length, molecular weight, microstructure, crystallinity, short-range ordered structure, pasting properties, and thermodynamic properties of RS, ERS, and SPI-WPI-ERS were measured. The results showed that, compared with rice starch, the proportion of long-chain starch, total starch content, and molecular weight were decreased in ERS and SPI-WPI-ERS, but the proportion of short-chain and amylose content was increased. The short-range order structure was destroyed. The water absorption of ERS and SPI-WPI-ERS was much higher than rice starch at 55 °C, 65 °C, and 75 °C, but lower than that of rice starch at 95 °C. Therefore, the retrogradation characteristics of SPI-WPI-ERS were improved. The setback of rice starch products was reduced and the setback of SPI-WPI-ERS was lower than that of ERS. Overall, the retrogradation of rice starch was delayed by adding exogenous protein and extrusion technology, and the application range of rice flour in staple food products was broadened.

Abstract
It has long been known that starch as a raw material is of strategic importance for meeting primarily the nutritional needs of people around the world. Year by year, the demand not only for traditional but also for functional food based on starch and its derivatives is growing. Problems with the availability of petrochemical raw materials, as well as environmental problems with the recycling of post-production waste, make non-food industries also increasingly interested in this biopolymer. Its supporters will point out countless advantages such as wide availability, renewability, and biodegradability. Opponents, in turn, will argue that they will not balance the problems with its processing and storage and poor functional properties. Hence, the race to find new methods to improve starch properties towards multifunctionality is still ongoing. For these reasons, in the presented review, referring to the structure and physicochemical properties of starch, attempts were made to highlight not only the current limitations in its processing but also new possibilities. Attention was paid to progress in the non-selective and selective functionalization of starch to obtain materials with the greatest application potential in the food (resistant starch, dextrins, and maltodextrins) and/or in the non-food industries (hydrophobic and oxidized starch).

Abstract
In their pristine state, starch and lignin are abundant and inexpensive natural polymers frequently considered green alternatives to oil-based and synthetic polymers. Despite their availability and owing to their physicochemical properties; starch and lignin are not often utilized in their pristine forms for high-performance applications. Generally, chemical and physical modifications transform them into starch- and lignin-based materials with broadened properties and functionality. In the last decade, the combination of starch and lignin for producing reinforced materials has gained significant attention. The reinforcing of starch matrices with lignin has received primary focus because of the enhanced water sensitivity, UV protection, and mechanical and thermal resistance that lignin introduces to starch-based materials. This review paper aims to assess starch-lignin materials' production and characterization technologies, highlighting their physicochemical properties, outcomes, challenges, and opportunities. First, this paper describes the current status, sources, and chemical modifications of lignin and starch. Next, the discussion is oriented toward starch-lignin materials and their production approaches, such as blends, composites, plasticized/crosslinked films, and coupled polymers. Special attention is given to the characterization methods of starch-lignin materials, focusing on their advantages, disadvantages, and expected outcomes. Finally, the challenges, opportunities, and future perspectives in developing starch-lignin materials, such as adhesives, coatings, films, and controlled delivery systems, are discussed.

Abstract
The molecular composition of starch leachates from starch-based foods has been recently recognised as a crucial determinant of food properties. However, there is limited knowledge on the regulation of this composition through irradiative depolymerization of starch. This research investigates the leaching behaviour of maize starch depolymerized by electron beam irradiation, and the relationship between the composition of leached starch and structures of modified starch granules. The analysis using 1H NMR spectroscopy confirmed a decrease in the degree of branching (from 4.4 % to 2.8 %), while size-exclusion chromatography identified a newly-derived amylopectin fraction of a smaller hydrodynamic radius (approximately 60-80 nm). The structural properties of the starch granules were also analysed, revealing an increased BET-area of granules and reduced total crystallinity after depolymerization. In the leachates of swollen granules, the bimodal distribution of starch molecules evolves into unimodal with the increase of the irradiative dosage, while modified starch leached more starch molecules with Rh < 10 nm. The results of principal component analysis and Pearson correlation analysis indicate that the degree of branching of degraded starch molecules, as well as the newly-derived amylopectin fraction, significantly correlates (p < 0.01) with the molecular size of leached starch molecules (Rh < 10 nm). It is thus proposed that the cleavage of α-1,6 linkage may be a critical factor in controlling the leaching process of irradiated starch granules. This study highlights the potential of irradiative degradation to control the molecular composition and structure of starch leachates, thereby optimizing the properties of starch-based foods.

Abstract
Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera G.) rhizomes are an under-utilized and sustainable starch source that constitutes up to 20 % starch. The review mainly focused on the extraction methods of starch, the chemical composition of LRS, and techno-functional characteristics such as swelling power, solubility, in vitro digestibility, pasting property, and gelatinization is highlighted in LRS review. Lotus rhizome starch (LRS) is also used as a water retention agent, thickening, gelling, stabilizing, and filling in food and non-food applications. Native starch has limited functional characteristics in food applications so by modifying the starch, functional characteristics are enhanced. Single and dual treatment processes are available to enhance microstructural properties, resistant starch, techno-functional, morphological, and, film-forming properties. Compared with other starch sources, there is a lack of systematic information on the LRS. Many industries are interested in developing food products based on starch such as nanoparticles, hydrogels, edible films, and many others. Additionally, there are several recommendations to improve the applications in the food industry. Finally, we provide an outlook on the future possibility of LRS.

Abstract
Ultrasound is a promising green technology for modifying starch. The influence of ultrasound pretreatment (UPT) at diverse temperatures on the morphology and molecular structure of pea starch and its ability to form inclusion complexes with lipids were investigated. After UPT at each temperature, the starch granules retained an unchanged crystalline structure but exhibited notable changes in short-range molecular order and molecular structure. In comparison with the samples treated at 0 and 20 °C, pea starch subjected to UPT at 40 °C had a significantly (P ≤ 0.05) higher complexing index with lauric acid (LA) and the starch-LA inclusion complex exhibited a higher enthalpy change, relative crystallinity, and resistant starch content. These differences were attributed to the higher temperature causing changes in the disruption points of starch chains and an enlargement in the molecular weight of linear chains. These results may promote the utilization of ultrasound for effective starch modification.

Abstract
The characteristics of sago starch exhibit remarkable resemblances to those of cassava, potato, and maize starches. This review intends to discuss and summarize the synthesis and characterization of sodium starch glycolate (SSG) from sago starch as a superdisintegrant from published journals using keywords in PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect databases by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA 2020). There are many methods for synthesizing sodium starch glycolate (SSG). Other methods may include the aqueous, extrusion, organic solvent slurry, and dry methods. Sago starch is a novel form of high-yield starch with significant development potential. After cross-linking, the phosphorus content of sago starch increases by approximately 0.3 mg/g, corresponding to approximately one phosphate ester group per 500 anhydroglucose units. The degree of substitution (DS) of sodium starch glycolate (SSG) from sago ranges from 0.25 to 0.30; in drug formulations, sodium starch glycolate (SSG) from sago ranges from 2% to 8% w/w. Higher levels of sodium starch glycolate (SSG) (2% and 4% w/w) resulted in shorter disintegration times (within 1 min). Sago starch is more swellable and less enzymatically digestible than pea and corn starch. These investigations demonstrate that sago starch is a novel form of high-yield starch with tremendous potential for novel development as superdisintegrant tablets and capsules.

The adzuki bean (Vigna angularis), known for its rich nutritional composition, holds significant promise in addressing food and nutritional security, particularly for low socioeconomic classes and the predominantly vegetarian and vegan populations worldwide. In this study, we assessed a total of 100 diverse adzuki bean accessions, analyzing essential nutritional compounds using AOAC's official analysis procedures and other widely accepted standard techniques. Our analysis of variance revealed significant genotype variations for all the traits studied. The variability range among different traits was as follows: moisture: 7.5-13.3 g/100 g, ash: 1.8-4.2 g/100 g, protein: 18.0-23.9 g/100 g, starch: 31.0-43.9 g/100 g, total soluble sugar: 3.0-8.2 g/100 g, phytic acid: 0.65-1.43 g/100 g, phenol: 0.01-0.59 g/100 g, antioxidant: 11.4-19.7 mg/100 g GAE. Noteworthy accessions included IC341955 and EC15256, exhibiting very high protein content, while IC341957 and IC341955 showed increased antioxidant activity. To understand intertrait relationships, we computed correlation coefficients between the traits. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed that the first four principal components contributed to 63.6% of the variation. Further, hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) identified nutri-dense accessions, such as IC360533, characterized by high ash (>4.2 g/100 g) and protein (>23.4 g/100 g) content and low phytic acid (0.652 g/100 g). These promising compositions provide practical support for the development of high-value food and feed varieties using effective breeding strategies, ultimately contributing to improved global food security.

From ancient crop to modern superfood: Exploring the history, diversity, characteristics, technological applications, and culinary uses of Peruvian fava beans. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113394. [PMID: 37803732 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113394] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
The search for plant-based superfoods has shown that many regional populations already have these foods in their diet, with significant potential for production and marketing. This critical review intends to show the history, diversity, characteristics, and uses, emphasizing their significance in traditional diets and potential in the food industry of Peruvian fava beans. As a valuable plant-based protein source, fava beans offer essential micronutrients and have diverse culinary applications. Innovative food industry applications include plant-based meat alternatives, fortified gluten-free products, and a natural color, protein, and fiber source in extruded foods. Key studies have highlighted the successful incorporation of fava beans into various food products, improving their nutritional properties, though some studies also point to limitations in their sensory acceptance. Further research is needed to understand the bioactive components, health effects, and techno-functional characteristics of beans. Challenges facing cultivating and consuming fava beans in Peru include adapting to climate change, enhancing productivity and quality, and promoting consumption and added value. Addressing these challenges involves developing climate-resilient varieties, optimizing agricultural practices, and providing access to resources and financing. In conclusion, this review highlights the promising prospects of Peruvian fava beans as a sustainable, nutritionally rich, and versatile ingredient in the food industry. By harnessing their potential and overcoming challenges, Peruvian fava beans can transition from an ancient crop to a modern superfood, inspiring a global shift towards sustainable and nutritionally balanced diets, aiding the fight against malnutrition, and enriching culinary traditions worldwide.

Abstract
Thermal processing remains the key processing technology for food products. However, there are some limitations for thermal processing such as loss of sensory and nutritional quality. Furthermore, nowadays consumers are looking forward for fresh like products which are free from chemical preservatives, yet having longer shelf life. Thus, alternative processing techniques are gaining popularity among food processors to replace conventional thermal processing keeping nutritional quality, sensory attributes and food safety in mind. The alternative processing techniques such as ultrasound, gamma irradiation, high pressure processing and microwave treatment causes several modifications (structural changes, effects on swelling and solubility index, gelatinization behaviour, pasting or rheological properties, retrogradation and cooking time) in physicochemical and functional properties of pulse starches which offers several advantages from commercial point of view. This review aims to summarize the effect of different alternative processing techniques on the structure, solubility, gelatinization, retrogradation and pasting properties of various pulse starches.

Abstract
Management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a pressing global healthcare challenge. Innovative strategies that integrate superior medical and nutritional practices are essential for holistic care. As such, pulse consumption is encouraged for its potential benefit in reducing hypercholesterolaemia, dyslipidaemia, and triglyceride levels, as well as enhancing glycaemic control. This scoping review aims to assess the depth of evidence supporting the recommendation for pulse consumption in T2DM management and to identify gaps in the existing literature. We conducted a comprehensive search across the databases MEDLINE, Global Health, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library (up to July 2023). We included population-based studies of any design, and excluded review-style articles. Articles published in languages other than English were also excluded. From the 2449 studies initially identified, 28 met our inclusion criteria. Acute postprandial trials demonstrated improved glucose responses and enhanced insulin responses to pulse-based intervention. Meanwhile, long-term trials reported meaningful improvements in T2DM indicators such as haemoglobin A1C (HbA1c), fasting glucose, fasting insulin, C-peptide, and markers of insulin resistance like homeostatic model assessment (HOMA). Integrating more pulses into the diets of diabetic individuals might offer an efficient and cost-effective strategy in the global initiative to combat T2DM.

Abstract
The fine, coarse and parent starches were isolated from pea flour by milling and air-classification. Their structural, thermal, physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility were investigated. Particle Size Distribution showed the fine starch with the smallest unimodal distribution (18.33 and 19.02 μm) displayed higher degree of short-range molecular order and lower number of double helix structure. Scanning Electron Microscopy showed the morphology of the coarse starch granules as uniform in size and lacking protein particles on its smooth surface. Differential Scanning Calorimetry revealed the coarse starch had higher enthalpy changes while Rapid Visco Analysis showed higher peak, trough, and breakdown viscosities for the fine starch. In vitro digestibility featured the fine starch containing lower fast digesting starch contents, but with higher resistant starch content, indicating its resistance to enzymatic hydrolysis. The results could provide theoretical support for application of pea starch in functional foods and the manufacture of emerging starch products.

[PMID: 37810033 PMCID: PMC10559777 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e20033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Arrowroot is an underutilized tuber crop in Sri Lanka and the characterization of starch was done to identify its nutritional, physicochemical, and functional properties to evaluate its potential for use in the food industry. This study distinctly advances the field of arrowroot starch characterization by providing more characterization techniques for starch samples from Sri Lanka. Arrowroot starch colour was closely similar to colour of wheat flour indicating that the effect of colour is minimum when replacing wheat flour. Oval, spherical, and irregular globular shapes were the predominant starch granule shapes for arrowroot. The average length of starch granules was 44.99 ± 1.27 μm while the width of granules was 31.44 ± 0.58 μm. The least gelation concentration was 8.0% indicating its better gel-forming ability. The nutritional composition of arrowroot starch consisted of low crude protein (0.72 ± 0.02%), crude fat (0.26 ± 0.19%), and crude fiber (1.00 ± 0.09%) contents indicating the purity of starch. Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Iron, and Zinc contents were 52.6 mg/kg, 4312.95 mg/kg, 382.67 mg/kg, 9.07 mg/kg, and 2.59 mg/kg, respectively. Results of flour densities demonstrated the potential of arrowroot starch to be used in the pharmaceutical industry. Arrowroot starch had high viscosity defining its potential as a thickener. The starch also had high swelling power and solubility indices while solubility was positively correlated with viscosity (0.679; P > 0.05). The low moisture absorbance indicates a longer shelf life of stored arrowroot starch. Onset temperature (To) of 75.02 °C, peak temperature (Tp) of 77.95 °C, and conclusion temperature (Tc) of 82.43 °C were resulted from DSC thermogram. Arrowroot was identified as an A-type starch from x-ray diffractometry and the FT-IR spectrum of arrowroot was identical to starch and presented the carbohydrate nature of starch. Thus, arrowroot starch has a high potential to be used in the food industry based on its functional properties.

Abstract
This work aimed to characterize the physicochemical, film-forming properties, and 3D printability of a nonconventional starch from chachafruto. The chachafruto native starch (CHS) presented an excellent extraction yield (10 % db) and purity (99 % db), along with an oval and round morphology, a smooth surface with few defects, and a mean diameter of 15.4 μm. The typical B-type diffraction pattern was observed in the CHS with a crystallinity of 17.4 %. The starch presented a paste temperature of 66.1 °C, an enthalpy of 11.5 J g-1, and a final viscosity of 596 Brabender Units. The thermal analysis demonstrated good thermal stability. The evaluated film presented a reduction in crystallinity (8.18 %) to the CHS, which generated a good elasticity in the material. Likewise, it presented a continuous structure without cracks, providing good barrier properties (2.3 × 10-9 g∙m-1∙s-1∙Pa-1) and high transparency. Meanwhile, 3D prints prepared with CHS showed good textural properties and high consistency. The morphological analysis showed that the prints generated organized cell structures. However, high concentrations of CHS were not efficient in obtaining 3D prints. The results of this work demonstrate the tremendous industrial potential of chachafruto as an unconventional source of starch and some alternative uses for adding value to the crop.

Rheological properties of dry-fractionated mung bean protein and structural, textural, and rheological evaluation of meat analogues produced by high-moisture extrusion cooking. Curr Res Food Sci 2023; 7:100552. [PMID: 37575131 PMCID: PMC10412858 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2023.100552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
A closed cavity rheometer was used to study the rheology of dry-fractionated mung bean protein -DFMB- (55% protein d.m.). Then, the high-moisture extrusion cooking at 40% and 50% moisture contents and different temperatures (115, 125, 135 and 145 °C) was performed, investigating the impact on structural, textural, and rheological properties of extrudates. When subjected to a temperature ramp (40-170 °C), DFMB showed an increase of G* from 70 °C, as a consequence of starch gelatinization and protein gelation. The peak, indicating the end of aggregation reactions, was at 105 °C and 110 °C for DFMB at 50% and 40% moisture content, respectively. The time sweep analysis described the protein behavior in no-shear/shear conditions, highlighting a more pronounced effect of the temperatures compared to moisture content. During the extrusion cooking, the temperature increase led to a decrease of pressure, indicating a reduction of the melt viscosity. The microstructure of the extrudates showed a more pronounced anisotropic profile when higher temperatures were applied. Hardness, chewiness, and cohesion were directly correlated with the temperature, which also affected the rheological properties of extrudates. A combination of textural and rheological analyses can offer a clear overview of the structural characteristics of meat analogues.

Abstract
Resistant starch (RS) promotes health benefits; however, when added to foods, it could change the rheological properties. The effect of adding different concentrations (2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10%) of retrograded corn starch with 27% (RNS) or 70% (RHS) amylose content on the properties of yogurt was evaluated through measurements of flow behavior and gel structure. Syneresis and resistant starch content were also assessed. Results were analyzed using multiple regression to describe the effect of starch concentration and storage time on the properties of yogurt added with RNS or RHS. Syneresis was reduced, RNS reinforced the structure increasing the water absorption capacity and the consistency index; meanwhile, RHS provided a yogurt containing up to 10 g of RS in 100 g of sample, allowing obtaining a functional dairy product. Creep-recovery test showed that adding RNS or RHS favored the matrix conformation, and the yogurt samples were able to recover. The final product behaved like a solid material with a firmer and more stable gel structure, resulting in a strengthened gel without weakening the yogurt structure, showing a characteristic like Greek-style or stirred yogurt depending on the type and concentration of retrograded starch.

Abstract
Common beans are an inexpensive source of high-quality food ingredients. They are rich in proteins, slowly digestible starch, fiber, phenolic compounds, and other bioactive molecules that could be separated and processed to obtain value-added ingredients with techno-functional and biological potential. The use of common beans in the food industry is a promising alternative to add nutritional and functional ingredients with a low impact on overall consumer acceptance. Researchers are evaluating traditional and novel technologies to develop functionally enhanced common bean ingredients, such as flours, proteins, starch powders, and phenolic extracts that could be introduced as functional ingredient alternatives in the food industry. This review compiles recent information on processing, techno-functional properties, food applications, and the biological potential of common bean ingredients. The evidence shows that incorporating an adequate proportion of common bean ingredients into regular foods such as pasta, bread, or nutritional bars improves their fiber, protein, phenolic compounds, and glycemic index profile without considerably affecting their organoleptic properties. Additionally, common bean consumption has shown health benefits in the gut microbiome, weight control, and the reduction of the risk of developing noncommunicable diseases. However, food matrix interaction studies and comprehensive clinical trials are needed to develop common bean ingredient applications and validate the health benefits over time.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 310:120696. [PMID: 36925237 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023]
Abstract
Highly branched α-glucan (HBAG) proved to be a promising material as an osmotic agent in peritoneal dialysis solutions. However, high resistance of HBAG to amylolytic enzymes might be a potential drawback for peritoneal dialysis due to its high degree of branching (20-30 %). To address this issue, we designed a small-clustered α-glucan (SCAG) with a relatively low molecular weight (Mw) and limited branching. Structural characteristics revealed that SCAG was successfully synthesized by modifying waxy rice starch (WRS) using sequential maltogenic α-amylase (MA) and starch branching enzyme (BE). The Mw of SCAG was 1.40 × 105 Da, and its (α1 → 6) bonds ratio was 8.93 %, which was below that of HBAG. A relatively short branch distribution was observed in SCAG (CL = 6.27). Short-range orderliness of WRS was reduced from 0.749 to 0.322 with the MABE incubation. Additionally, SCAG had an extremely low viscosity (~12 cP) and nearly no retrogradation. Although the resistance of SCAG to amylolytic enzymes was enhanced by 15.22 % compared with native WRS, the extent was significantly lower than that of HBAG in previous studies. These new findings demonstrate the potential of SCAG as a novel functional α-glucan in food and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
For the first time, the current work applied fungal α-amylase treated corn starch in granular form to produce solid state malate-esterified starch (MES). The pores and channels created on the granules after the enzymatic modification could provide more possibilities for malic acid to esterify the starch, resulting in the increase of substitution degree (0.084) and reaction efficiency (86.6%) compared to NS. Based on the obtained results, the dual treatment significantly increased solubility, amylose content, and syneresis, but reduced transparency, viscosity, digestibility rate, and swelling power compared to those of NS. The occurrence of esterification onto starch chains was confirmed by FT-IR at 1720 cm-1. Other techniques including SEM, XRD, and DSC were employed to examine changes in the structure of starch granules after applying each treatment. Also, the greenness of the combined modification (score: 77) was proved by using a new methodology named Eco-Scale.

Abstract
In 2018, the US Food and Drug Administration reported a link between canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and grain-free diets. Evidence to support a link has emerged, but the specific ingredients responsible and the role of taurine or other causative factors remain unclear. We hypothesized dogs fed pulse-based, grain-free diets for 28 days will show decreased macronutrient digestibility, increased fecal bile acid excretion, and reduced plasma cystine, cysteine, methionine and taurine, causing sub-clinical cardiac or blood changes indicative of early DCM. Three diets were formulated using white rice flour (grain), whole lentil (grain-free), or wrinkled pea (grain-free) and compared to the pre-trial phase on a commercial grain-based diet. After 28 days of feeding each diet, the wrinkled pea diet impaired stroke volume and cardiac output, increased end-systolic ventricular diameter and increased plasma N-Terminal Pro-B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-ProBNP), albeit in a sub-clinical manner. Digestibility of some macronutrients and sulphur-containing amino acids, excluding taurine, also decreased with pulse-based compared to grain-based diets, likely due to higher fiber levels. Plasma taurine levels were unchanged; however, plasma methionine was significantly lower after feeding all test diets compared to the commercial diet. Overall, DCM-like changes observed with the wrinkled pea diet, but not lentil diet, after only 4 weeks in a breed not known to be susceptible support a link between pea-based diets and canine nutritionally-mediated DCM.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of four different freezing methods on the texture of rice dough reconstituted by glutinous rice starch and gluten, and the changes of properties of rice dough with different gluten ratios after liquid nitrogen (LF) treatment. The profiles of frozen rice dough were studied by texture analyzer, low-field NMR, SEM, FT-IR, DSC, CLSM, X-RD and RVA. Results revealed that with the slowing down of freezing rate, the damage of freezing process to starch granules and protein structure in frozen rice dough increases, resulting in the increase of damaged starch, the decrease of protein ordered structure, the change of bound water in frozen rice dough to free water, the decrease of frozen rice dough hardness and elasticity, the decrease of storage modulus (G') and the deterioration of frozen rice dough texture. The addition of gluten in frozen rice dough will increase the short-range ordered structure and crystal structure of starch, reduce the digestibility of starch, and change the viscosity characteristics of frozen rice dough. Based on the experimental results, adding 10 % gluten is more suitable for making frozen rice dough, while LF has the least effect on frozen rice dough texture.

Abstract
Abstract
Interest in nanocellulose has lately increased as a result of its benefits, such as renewable, biodegradable, high mechanical strength and valuable economically. In this regard, nanocellulose has been frequently employed as reinforcement for the enhancement of mechanical, thermal and biodegradation qualities of nanocomposite materials, such as thermoplastic starch. An overview of the use of pea starch that has been reinforced with nanocellulose for packaging and storage applications is given in this chapter. In comparison to standard sources of starch like maize, wheat and potatoes, it is consequently seen as a comparatively affordable source of starch. These composite polysaccharides (pea thermoplastic starch/nanocellulose) have the potential to replace traditional packaging composed of polymers derived from petroleum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-conventional starch sources are promising alternative food ingredients. Different bean varieties with agronomic improvements are constantly being developed and cultivated in the Northwestern Argentinean region (NOA) to increase yields and obtain high-quality seeds. However, the main attributes of their starches have not been studied. In this work, starches from four agronomic-improved bean cultivars were isolated and their structure and physicochemical properties were evaluated. RESULTS High-purity starches were obtained, as shown by their low protein and ash content. Starch granules presented smooth surfaces with spherical to oval shapes, with a marked 'Maltese cross' and heterogeneous sizes. Their amylose content revealed a mean value of 318 g kg-1 and all presented resistant > slowly digestible > rapidly digestible starch fractions. Their Fourier transform infrared spectra were similar and X-ray diffraction analysis showed a CA -type pattern in all cases despite their different sources. Among thermal properties, Escarlata starch showed the lowest gelatinization peak temperature (69.5 °C) and Anahí starch the highest (71.3 °C). Starch pasting temperature varied from 74.6 to 76.9 °C, whereas peak viscosity and final viscosity showed a similar tendency, with Leales B30 < Anahí < Escarlata < Cegro 99/11-2 and Leales B30 < Anahí = Escarlata < Cegro 99/11-2, respectively. CONCLUSION This study provides the basis for a better understanding of the characteristics of agronomic-improved NOA bean starches, enabling their use in product formulation as an alternative to starches from conventional sources. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Starch retrogradation is a consequential part of food processing that greatly impacts the texture and acceptability of products containing both starch and proteins, but the effect of proteins on starch retrogradation has only recently been explored. With the increased popularity of plant-based proteins in recent years, incorporation of proteins into starch-based products is more commonplace. These formulation changes may have unforeseen effects on ingredient functionality and sensory outcomes of starch-containing products during storage, which makes the investigation of protein-starch interactions and subsequent impact on starch retrogradation and product quality essential. Protein can inhibit or promote starch retrogradation based on its exposed residues. Charged residues promote charge-dipole interactions between starch-bound phosphate and protein, hydrophobic groups restrict amylose release and reassociation, while hydrophilic groups impact water/molecular mobility. Covalent bonds (disulfide linkages) formed between proteins may enhance starch retrogradation, while glycosidic bonds formed between starch and protein during high-temperature processing may limit starch retrogradation. With these protein-starch interactions in mind, products can be formulated with proteins that enhance or delay textural changes in starch-containing products. Future work to understand the impact of starch-protein interactions on retrogradation should focus on integrating the fields of proteomics and carbohydrate chemistry. This interdisciplinary approach should result in better methods to characterize mechanisms of interaction between starch and proteins to optimize their food applications. This review provides useful interpretations of current literature characterizing the mechanistic effect of protein on starch retrogradation.

Abstract
Starch, as a widely available renewable resource, has the potential to be used in the production of controlled-release fertilizers (CRFs) that support sustainable agriculture. These CRFs can be formed by incorporating nutrients through coating or absorption, or by chemically modifying the starch to enhance its ability to carry and interact with nutrients. This review examines the various methods of creating starch-based CRFs, including coating, chemical modification, and grafting with other polymers. In addition, the mechanisms of controlled release in starch-based CRFs are discussed. Overall, the potential benefits of using starch-based CRFs in terms of resource efficiency and environmental protection are highlighted.

Abstract
To illustrate the correlations between molecular structures and the film-forming properties of thermoplastic starch from various botanical sources, starches from cereal, tuber and legume were modified by thermoplastic extrusion and the corresponding thermoplastic starch films were prepared including thermoplastic corn starch (TCS), thermoplastic rice starch (TRS), thermoplastic sweet potato starch (TSPS), thermoplastic cassava starch (TCAS) and thermoplastic pea starch (TPES) films. TPES film displayed a higher tensile strength (6.28 MPa) and stronger water resistance, such as lower water solubility (15.70 %), water absorption (42.35 %), and water vapor permeability (0.285 g·mm·h-1·m-2·kPa-1) due to higher contents of amylose and B1 chains. TCAS showed a smoother and more amorphous film due to higher amylopectin content, resulting higher elongation at break and larger opacity. TCS film was the most transparent due to a compacter network and more ordered crystallinity structure, which was suit for the packaging of fresh vegetables and aquatic products, whereas TCAS film was the opaquest, which protected package foods from light such as meat products, etc. The outcome would provide an innovative theory to regulate accurately the functional properties of thermoplastic starch films for different food needs.

Abstract
The vegan diet, often known as a plant-rich diet, consists primarily of plant-based meals. This dietary approach may be beneficial to one’s health and the environment and is valuable to the immune system. Plants provide vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and antioxidants, components that promote cell survival and immune function, allowing its defensive mechanisms to work effectively. The term “vegan diet” comprises a range of eating patterns that prioritize nutrient-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. In comparison to omnivorous diets, which are often lower in such products, the vegan diet has been favorably connected with changes in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk markers such as reduced body mass index (BMI) values, total serum cholesterol, serum glucose, inflammation, and blood pressure. Reduced intake of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), saturated fat, processed meat, and greater consumption of fiber and phytonutrients may improve cardiovascular health. However, vegans have much smaller amounts of nutrients such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), selenium, zinc, iodine, and vitamin B12, compared to non-vegans, which may lead to detrimental cardiovascular effects. This review aims to present the effect of plant-based diets (PBDs), specifically vegan diets, on the cardiovascular system.

Optimisation of the techno-functional and thermal properties of heat moisture treated Bambara groundnut starch using response surface methodology. Sci Rep 2023; 13:2261. [PMID: 36755062 PMCID: PMC9908914 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-28451-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
This work optimised the techno-functional and thermal properties of heat moisture treated Bambara groundnut starch (BGS). A central composite rotatable design (Design-Expert software v8.0.1.0) comprising two independent factors of temperature and time was used. Extracted BGS were subjected to heat-moisture treatment (HMT) at 80-120 °C for 30-90 min at different moisture levels of 15% (HMT 15-BGS), 25% (HMT 25-BGS) and 35% (HMT 35-BGS). The optimum HMT conditions for BGS were found to be 80 °C for 30 min (HMT 15), 105.74 °C for 30 min (HMT 25), and 113.16 °C for 30 min (HMT 35). The desirability values of the obtained optimum conditions were 0.63 (HMT 15) and 1.00 (HMT 25 and 35). In HMT 35-BGS, water absorption capacity was significantly affected by the quadratic effect of temperature and time. In contrast, solubility was significantly affected by the linear effect of time and the quadratic effect of temperature. Temperature and treatment time had no significant effect (p ≥ 0.05) on the differential scanning calorimetry thermal properties of HMT 15, 25 and 35-BGS. Scanning electron micrographs of optimised BGS showed round and oval-shaped starch granules ranging from 4.2 to 4.7 mm (width) and 10 μm for length. Unmodified and optimised HMT-BGS showed characteristic FTIR bands linked with common starches. All BGS samples displayed multiple vibrations in the region below 1000 cm-1 due to the skeletal vibrations of the glucose pyranose ring.

Abstract
Normal corn starch was subjected to dry heating in the presence of phytic acid (PA, 2 %, starch basis) and citric acid (CA, 5 % and 10 %) for modification. Dual treatment with PA and CA induced structural and physicochemical changes in normal corn starch. Phosphorus concentration, degree of substitution, FTIR, and 31P NMR analyses confirmed esterification of starch by dry heating with PA and CA. Both phosphorylation and citration by esterification with PA and CA were observed in PA + 5CA starch, but high CA concentration inhibited covalent interaction between PA and starch in PA + 10CA starch. The degree of phosphorylation and citration resulted in different physicochemical properties in starch treated with PA and CA. The treatment with only PA did not change the crystalline regions of PA starch, but CA treatment induced the disruption of the crystalline structure of PA + 5CA and PA + 10CA starch. PA starch showed high solubility (46.41 %) and transmittance (90.51 %), but dual treatment of PA and CA induced significant decrease in solubility (3.23 %) and transmittance (2.18 %) of PA + 10CA starch. CA treatment increased the fraction of resistant starch in non-cooked (72.44 %) and cooked PA + 10CA starch (42.76 %). Therefore, dual treatment with PA and CA had potential to control physicochemical and functional properties of starch by phosphorylation and citration of starch.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of germination time (0, 24, 48 and 72 h) on the physicochemical characteristics, in vitro starch digestibility and microstructural changes in Bambara groundnut starch. The starch yield, lightness (L*) value, amylose content and resistant starch contents of isolated starches decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) with increasing germination time. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that starch from raw and germinated Bambara grains were smooth with no evidence of starch degradation and were mainly oval shaped, with some granule's irregular and kidney shaped. Water absorption capacity (1.33-1.90 g/g), swelling power (2.12-16.53 g/g), solubility index (1.14-13.04 g/g), and dispersibility (75.92-86.47%) greatly increased as germination timed increased. Germination did not alter the X-ray diffraction pattern (Type-A) but increased the relative crystallinity of the starches. The peak gelatinization temperatures (73.23-73.91 °C) of starch from germinated Bambara were significantly higher than native starch (72.81 °C). Native starch and starch from germinated Bambara grains had substantially high proportion of resistant starch (approx. 73%) and high pasting temperatures (approx. 88 °C). Conclusively, germination significantly changed starch structure at molecular level and impacted functionality.

Abstract
In this study, pulse (pea, lentil) and cereal (barley, oats) seeds were firstly milled into whole flours, which were then sieved into coarse and fine flours. The particle sizes of the three generated flour streams followed a descending order of coarse > whole > fine, consistent with the observation under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Among the four crops, the three flour streams showed the same rank order of fine > whole > coarse in starch and damaged-starch contents but the opposite order in ash and total dietary fiber contents. Thus, those functional properties closely related to starch occurring in flour, such as L* (brightness), starch gelatinization enthalpy change (ΔH), and gel hardness, followed the same order of fine > whole > coarse. By contrast, protein contents of the three flour streams did not vary in pea and lentil but showed a trend of coarse > whole > fine in barley and oats, which could partially explain generally comparable foaming and emulsifying properties of the three streams of pulse flours as well as an order of coarse > whole > fine in oil-binding capacity (OBC) of cereal flours, respectively. The different particle sizes and chemical compositions of the three flour streams only resulted in a descending order of fine > whole > coarse in the pasting viscosities of the pulse flours but did not lead to such a clear trend in the cereal flours, which could be partly attributable to the different microscopic structures of the pulse and cereal seeds and their corresponding flours. This research clearly demonstrated that particle size, chemical composition, and microscopic structure were important variables determining the specific techno-functional properties of pulse and cereal flours.

Abstract
Looking for a biological fingerprint relative to new aspects of the relationship between humans and natural environment during prehistoric times is challenging. Although many issues still need to be addressed in terms of authentication and identification, microparticles hidden in ancient dental calculus can provide interesting information for bridging this gap of knowledge. Here, we show evidence about the role of edible plants for the early Neolithic individuals in the central Apennines of the Italian peninsula and relative cultural landscape. Dental calculi from human and animal specimens exhumed at Grotta Mora Cavorso (Lazio), one of the largest prehistoric burial deposits, have returned an archaeobotanical record made up of several types of palaeoecological proxies. The organic fraction of this matrix was investigated by a multidisciplinary approach, whose novelty consisted in the application of next generation sequencing to ancient plant DNA fragments, specifically codifying for maturase K barcode gene. Panicoideae and Triticeae starches, together with genetic indicators of Rosaceae fruits, figs, and Lamiaceae herbs, suggested subsistence practices most likely still based on wild plant resources. On the other hand, pollen, and non-pollen palynomorphs allowed us to outline a general vegetational framework dominated by woodland patches alternated with meadows, where semi-permanent settlements could have been established.

Abstract
Starch is present in high amount in various cereals, fruits and roots & tubers which finds major application in industry. Commercially, starch is rarely consumed or processed in its native form, thus modification of starch is widely used method for increasing its application and process stability. Due to the high demand for starch in industrial applications, researchers were driven to hunt for new sources of starch, including modification of starch through green processing. Thermal properties are significant reference parameters for evaluating the quality of starch when it comes to cooking and processing. Modification of starches affects the thermal properties, which are widely studied using Differential scanning calorimeter or Thermogravimetric analysis. It could lead to a better understanding of starch's thermal properties including factors influencing and expand its commercial applications as a thickener, extender, fat replacer, etc. in more depth. Therefore, the review presents the classification of starches, factors influencing the thermal properties, measurement methods and thermal properties of starch in its native and modified form. Further, this review concludes that extensive research on the thermal properties of new sources of starch, as well as modified starch, is required to boost thermal stability and extend industrial applications.
