Jo M, Shi YC. Unveiling the significance of gastric digestion in gastrointestinal fate of octenylsuccinylated starch-stabilized emulsions. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 333:121953.

Abstract
The importance of gastric digestion in starch-based emulsion is often overshadowed compared to intestinal digestion, despite acknowledging the activity of salivary α-amylase in the stomach. This study aimed to address this gap by investigating the digestion of starch-based emulsions through orogastrointestinal digestion experiments. Our observations revealed the crucial role of salivary α-amylase, which hydrolyzed ∼8 %, ∼56 %, and ∼ 28 % of starch in emulsions stabilized by octenylsuccinylated maize starch (OMS-E), gelatinized OMS (GOMS-E), and retrograded OMS (ROMS-E), respectively, during the gastric phase. Consequently, ∼23 % of the oil in GOMS-E underwent lipolysis during this phase, whereas ∼13 and ∼ 6 % of the oil was lipolyzed in OMS-E and ROMS-E, respectively. These phenomena significantly influenced their small intestinal digestion and the bioaccessibility of encapsulated curcumin. Notably, GOMS-E exhibited ∼28 % lower curcumin bioaccessibility than that of curcumin encapsulated in OMS-E or ROMS-E. This difference was attributed to premature gastric digestion and subsequent encapsulant release in the case of GOMS-E. This understanding can be utilized to manipulate the delivery and digestion of starch-based emulsions. Importantly, our findings highlight the necessity of considering gastric amylolysis and lipolysis when investigating the gastrointestinal fate of starch-based emulsions.

Abstract
In the presented study, natural rice containing high resistant starch content was used as a raw material to produce rice resistant starch (RRS) through enzymatic hydrolysis with heat-stable α-amylase and glucoamylase. The chemical composition, structural characteristics and in vitro glycemic index (GI) of RRS were evaluated. The effects of RRS at different doses on the body weight, serum biochemical levels, pathological indexes, production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the gut and the intestinal microbial composition in T2DM mice were investigated. The results of physiochemical characterization indicated that, relative to rice flour, RRS mainly comprising resistant starch had higher crystallinity (25.85%) and a more stable structure, which contributed to its lower digestibility and decreased GI in vitro. Compared with the model control group, 1 g per kg BW and 2 g per kg BW oral gavage dosages of RRS effectively enhanced the SCFA productivity in the T2DM mouse gut, as well as alleviating T2DM symptoms, involving an increase in body weight, reduction in fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase, and an increase in serum insulin and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Besides, 1 g per kg BW and 2 g per kg BW dosages of RRS mitigated T2DM-induced pancreas damage. Furthermore, up-regulation in the abundance of probiotics (Lactobacillus, Ruminococcus, etc.) and down-regulation in the number of harmful bacteria (Desulfovibrio, Prevotella, etc.) were observed in all RRS-treated groups. In summary, this work suggested that RRS prepared using heat-stable α-amylase and glucoamylase could be a potential functional component for amelioration of T2DM applied in the fields of food and pharmaceutics.

Abstract
Chickpea has significant benefits as an adjuvant treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The properties of chickpea resistant starches (RSs) and their abilities to reduce T2DM symptoms and control intestinal flora were investigated. The RS content in citrate-esterified starch (CCS; 74.18%) was greater than that in pullulanase-modified starch (enzymatically debranched starch (EDS); 38.87%). Compared with those of native chickpea starch, there were noticeable changes in the granular structure and morphology of the two modified starches. The CCS showed surface cracking and aggregation. The EDS particles exhibited irregular layered structures. The expansion force of the modified starches decreased. The CCS and EDS could successfully lower blood glucose, regulate lipid metabolism, lower the levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), reduce the expressions of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleuki n-10 (IL-10), and decrease diabetes-related liver damage. Moreover, the CCS and EDS altered the intestinal flora makeup in mice with T2DM. The abundance of Bacteroidota increased. Both types of chickpea RSs exhibited significant hypoglycaemic and hypolipidaemic effects, contributing to the reduction in inflammatory levels and the improvement in gut microbiota balance.

Abstract
The intricate relationship between resistant starch (RS) and the gut microbiome presents a dynamic frontier in nutrition science. This review synthesizes current understandings of how RS, an indigestible form of starch found naturally in certain foods and also enhanced through various modification methods, interacts with the gut microbiome. We particularly focus on how RS fermentation in the colon contributes to the production of beneficial volatile fatty acids (VFAs) such as butyrate, acetate, and propionate. These VFAs have been recognized for their vital roles in maintaining gut barrier integrity, modulating inflammation, and potentially influencing systemic health. Additionally, we discuss the dietary implications of consuming foods rich in RS, both in terms of gut health and broader metabolic outcomes. By consolidating these insights, we emphasize the significance of RS in the context of dietary strategies aimed at harnessing the gut microbiome's potential to impact human health.

Abstract
The glutinous rice starch (GRS) regeneration process could lead to decreased product quality and shorter shelf life. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of an ethanol extract of tea (EET) on the regeneration properties of GRS. The microstructure of starch was determined via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used to determine the microstructure of starch-polyphenol molecular groups, an X-ray diffraction (XRD) instrument was used to determine the starch crystal structure, a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) was used to determine the thermodynamic properties of starch, and the inhibitory effect of EET on GRS regeneration was comprehensively evaluated. The effect of EET on the in vitro digestion properties of GRS was also determined. The results showed that the addition of EET in GRS resulted in an increase in solubility and swelling power and a decrease in crystallinity and ΔHr. Compared to the control group, when retrograded for 10 days, the ΔHr of GRS with 1%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10% addition of EET decreased by 34.61%, 44.53%, 52.93%, and 66.79%, respectively. Furthermore, the addition of EET resulted in a decrease in the content of RDS and an increase in the content of SDS and RS in GRS. It was shown that the addition of EET could significantly inhibit the retrogradation of GRS, improve the processability, and prolong the shelf life of GRS products.

Abstract
Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) was employed to modify wrinkled pea (74.2 % and 76.5 % amylose) and round pea starches (35.9 % and 34.8 % amylose) at 35.0 % moisture, 110 or 130 °C, and 6 h. HMT increased the gelatinization temperatures and decreased the gelatinization enthalpy changes, reduced the pasting viscosities and gel hardness, and enhanced the enzymatic resistance of the pea starches in comparison with the native counterparts, with greater extents of changes observed for HMT at 130 °C overall. Although HMT decreased the relative crystallinity and elevated the proportion of amorphous conformation, the remaining double-helical crystallites in the modified samples showed improved thermal stability as revealed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). More importantly, the HMT-modified pea starches required a higher heating temperature of 120 °C, rather than 95 °C, in Rapid Visco Analyser to provide greater pasting viscosities and develop firmer gels, suggesting that the modified samples had stronger molecular entanglement than the native counterparts. Such molecular entanglement could also reduce enzymatic digestion of HMT-modified starches after boiling in water. With more diverse functional profiles and increased resistant starch (RS) contents (particularly for the HMT-modified wrinkled pea starches having 22.7-29.9 % RS), the HMT-modified pea starches could be promising new ingredients for food applications.

Abstract
Emulgels are a type of soft solid delivery system that exploit the merits of both emulsions and gels, namely, bioactive encapsulability and structural stability, respectively. We utilized retrograded/octenylsuccinylated maize starch (ROMS) to fabricate the curcumin-loaded emulgel. Emulgels (oil volume fraction, 0.20) prepared with 1-4 % w/w ROMS exhibited fluid-like behaviors while emulgels with 5-8 % w/w ROMS exhibited a gel-like consistency. Compared to a fluidic emulsion stabilized with 3 % w/w octenylsuccinylated maize starch, the emulgels showed more sustained lipolysis and controlled curcumin release patterns. These results were attributed to rigid ROMS structures at the outer layer of oil droplets, hindering the lipase approach onto the oil/water interface and curcumin diffusion from the interface. Additionally, the bioaccessibility of curcumin in ROMS-stabilized emulgels was enhanced >9.6-fold compared to that of a curcumin solution. Furthermore, emulgels prepared with 8 % w/w ROMS exhibited a high yield stress (376.4 Pa) and maintained appearance and droplet size for 60 days of storage at 4 °C. Consequently, this emulgel has potential as a lipophilic bioactive-containing soft gel with sustained digestion and controlled release properties. Our findings may provide insights into rational delivery system designs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, increasing importance has been attracted to healthy food enriched in resistant starch (RS), which has great benefits in health-promoting. Raw potato has rich RS2, whereas most RS2 may become digestible after gelatinization, resulting in few RS being left in processed potato. Breeding potatoes with high RS2 or RS3 or both can meet the demand for various healthy potato products. RESULTS There were apparent discrepancies among three potatoes with contrast RS2 and RS3 content in thermal properties, viscosity and digestibility. ZS-5 had the highest RS2 with 50.17% but the lowest RS3 with 3.31%. Meanwhile, ZS-5 had the largest starch granule, the highest proportion of B3, viscosity and hardness, and the highest digestibility. DN303 with the highest content of RS3 (5.08%) had the lowest hardness and fracturability. MG56-42 with both higher RS2 and RS3 content showed the highest resistance to digestion and moderate hardness and fracturability. CONCLUSION The present study enriches the potential resources and provides a reliable scientific basis for high RS potatoes breeding. The various features of different potatoes make it possible to screen potatoes according to different demands. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Starch is a renewable and multifunctional polysaccharide biopolymer that is widely used both in the food industry and other areas of the economy. However, due to a number of undesirable properties in technological processes, it is subjected to various modifications. They improve its functional properties and enable the starch to be widely used in various industries. A modified starch is a natural starch that has been treated in a way that changes one or more of its initial physical and/or chemical properties. Chemical modification consists of the introduction of functional groups into starch molecules, which result in specific changes in the physicochemical and functional properties of starch preparations. The bases of chemical modifications of starch are oxidation, esterification or etherification reactions. In terms of functionality, modified preparations include cross-linked and stabilized starches. These starches have the status of allowed food additives, and their use is strictly regulated by relevant laws. Large-scale scientific research is aimed at developing new methods of starch modification, and the use of innovative technological solutions allows for an increasingly wider use of such preparations. This paper characterizes chemically modified starches used as food additives, including the requirements for such preparations and the directions of their practical application. Health-promoting aspects of the use of chemically modified starches concerning resistant starch type RS4, encapsulation of bioactive ingredients, starch fat substitutes, and carriers of microelements are also described. The topic of new trends in the use of chemically modified starches, including the production of biodegradable films, edible coatings, and nanomaterials, is also addressed.

Abstract
The development of rice active compounds is conducive to improving the added value of rice. This paper focused on the types and effects of active compounds in rice. Furthermore, it summarized the effect of rice storage and processing technology on rice active compounds. We conclude the following: Rice contains a large number of active compounds that are beneficial to humans. At present, the research on the action mechanism of rice active compounds on the human body is not deep enough, and the ability to deeply process rice is insufficient, greatly limiting the development of the rice active compound industry. To maximize the added value of rice, it is necessary to establish a dedicated preservation and processing technology system based on the physicochemical properties of the required active compounds. Additionally, attention should be paid to the development and application of composite technologies during the development of the rice active compound industry.

Abstract
This study investigates the effects of moisture content control on the characteristics, properties, and in vitro starch digestion of roasted rice powder made from natural high-resistant starch (RS) rice varieties. The results demonstrate that adjusting the moisture content before roasting significantly affects the RS content of the roasted rice powder. Among various moisture levels tested, the addition of 15% water (rice-to-water ratio of 85:15) before roasting resulted in the highest RS content, reaching 22.61%. Several key parameters of the rice samples before and after optimal moisture control were analyzed, including thermal stability, chain length distribution, volatile flavor composition, and scanning electron microscopy. Additionally, in vitro digestion properties were measured. The findings revealed that the volatile flavor compounds in the high-RS roasted rice significantly increased compared to non-roasted rice. Moreover, the thermal stability of the rice samples improved, and the chain length distribution exhibited significant changes. The water absorption and expansion properties were significantly lower in the high-RS roasted rice. Furthermore, the in vitro starch digestion of the roasted flour made from high-RS rice showed a significantly lower digestion rate compared to common rice, indicating a lower starch hydrolysis index in high-RS rice with the sbe-rs genotype. Overall, the roasting process of natural high-RS rice modifies its characteristics, increases the RS content, enhances the flavor, and results in a lower starch digestion rate compared to common rice. This study provides valuable data for the food industry to promote the application of high-RS rice varieties with mutations in the SBEIIb gene, such as Youtangdao2 (YTD2).

Abstract
Fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) are carbohydrates which can cause symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Cereal-based products are high in FODMAPs, as they are part of the carbohydrate fraction in flour. Low-FODMAP products are starch-based which leads to a low dietary fibre content. Hence, the fortification with dietary fibre ingredients low in FODMAPs is essential. This study reveals the impact of three different fibre ingredients, resistant starch, cellulose, and arabinoxylan, and their interactions with each other in a low-FODMAP biscuit model system using response surface methodology. All fibre ingredients have an affinity to water which was further increased by their coexistence in the model system. Fibersym RW affected the biscuit hardness by its morphology and potential to recrystallise leading to a maximum inclusion level of 40%. VITACEL L 600-30 also increased biscuit hardness due to its plasticising character leading to a maximum inclusion of 20%. AgriFiber BFG mainly impacted the colour of the product restricting its inclusion to 2.3%. Additionally, it reduced the degree of starch digestibility of the biscuit by the formation of a film imbedding the starch granules and reducing enzyme attack. This research provides an in-depth insight into the integration potential of these fibre ingredients into a low-FODMAP biscuit, their interactions within the system and inclusion levels which allow their coexistence.

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
Since the role of intestinal microbiota in metabolism was understood, the importance of dietary components such as fibres and prebiotics, which affect the modulation of microbiota, has been increasing day by day. While all prebiotic components are considered dietary fibre, not every dietary fibre is considered a prebiotic. While fructooligosaccharides, galactooligosaccharides, inulin, and galactans are considered prebiotics, other fermentable carbohydrates are considered candidate prebiotic components based on in vitro and preclinical studies. Resistant starch, one of such carbohydrates, is considered a potential prebiotic component when it is made resistant to digestion naturally or chemically. In this review, both in vitro and in vivo studies in which the prebiotic capacity of type II, type III, and type IV resistant starch isolated from food and produced commercially was assessed were analyzed. According to the results of current studies, certain types of resistant starch are thought to have a high prebiotic capacity, and they may be candidate prebiotic components although positive results have not been achieved in all studies. KEY POINTS: • Resistant starch is undigested in the small intestine and is fermented in the large intestine. • Resistant starch fermentation positively affects the growth of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. • Resistant starch can be considered a prebiotic ingredient.

Abstract
In tropical and subtropical areas, tuber and root crops are staple foods and a key source of energy. Sweet potato (SP) is currently regarded as one of the world's top ten foods because of its diverse sizes, shapes, color, and health benefits. The resistant starch (RS) content of SP is substantial. It is predicted to become the cheapest item in the food industry due to its extensive variety, food stability, emulsifier and fat substitution capabilities, and as filler. As a result, interest in SP-sourced RS has recently increased. Due to their unique nutritional and functional qualities, novelty has become a popular research focus in recent years. This review will summarize the current understanding of SP starch components and their impact on the technological and physicochemical properties of produced starch for commercial viability. The importance of sweet potato RS in addressing future RS demand sustainability is emphasized. SPs are a viable alternative to tubers as a sustainable raw material for RS production. It has an advantage over tubers because of its intrinsic nutritional value and climatic endurance. Thermal, chemical, and enzymatic treatments are effective RS manufacturing procedures. The adaptability of sweet potato RS allows for a wide range of food applications.

Foods 2022; 11:foods11244040.

Abstract
The effect of pasta-making processes on starch and protein features, as well as cooking behavior, and nutritional properties (i.e., resistant starch and starch in vitro digestibility) were assessed. Pasta from raw red lentils (R) was prepared by conventional extrusion (C_R) and extrusion-cooking (EC_R), whereas heat-treated red lentils (HT) were processed into pasta by conventional extrusion (C_HT). A "high protein" and "high fiber" pasta was prepared. Using HT was effective in increasing the luminosity (that was about 88, 91, and 96 for EC_R, C_R, and C_HT, respectively), and decreasing the presence of defects on the pasta surface (heterogeneity was 5%, 36%, and 45% for C_HT, EC_R, and C_R, respectively). Heat treatment on grains or flour significantly increased starch susceptibility to α-amylase (6.6, 7.4, and 8.6% for C_R, C_HT, and EC_R, respectively) and decreased the final viscosity (from 335 BU in C_R to 287 and 291 BU in EC_R and C_HT), resulting in a significant increase in starch digestibility (slowly digestible starch was about 41, 27, and 26% in C_R, C_HT, and EC_R, respectively). As regards proteins, the main effect on their structure was observed in C_HT, where the cooking behavior was much improved and cooking losses were lowest (5.7%). On the other hand, protein and starch organization in EC_R might have accounted for pasta resistance in overcooking.

Abstract
Not all starches in the human diet are created equal: “resistant starches” are consolidated aggregates of the α-glucan polysaccharides amylose and amylopectin, which escape digestion by salivary and pancreatic amylases. Upon reaching the large intestine, resistant starches become fodder for members of the human gut microbiota, impacting the metabolism of both the symbionts and the host. In a recent study, Koropatkin et al. provided new molecular insight into how a keystone bacterium in the human gut microbiota adheres to resistant starches as a prelude to their breakdown and fermentation.

Abstract
Dietary fiber intakes in Western societies are concerningly low and do not reflect global recommended dietary fiber intakes for chronic disease prevention. Resistant starch (RS) is a fermentable dietary fiber that has attracted research interest. As an isolated ingredient, its fine particle size, relatively bland flavor, and white appearance may offer an appealing fiber source to the Western palate, accustomed to highly refined, processed grains. This review aims to provide a comprehensive insight into the current knowledge (classification, production methods, and characterization methods), health benefits, applications, and acceptability of RS. It further discusses the present market for commercially available RS ingredients and products containing ingredients high in RS. The literature currently highlights beneficial effects for dietary RS supplementation with respect to glucose metabolism, satiety, blood lipid profiles, and colonic health. An exploration of the market for commercial RS ingredients indicates a diverse range of products (from isolated RS2, RS3, and RS4) with numerous potential applications as partial or whole substitutes for traditional flour sources. They may increase the nutritional profile of a food product (e.g., by increasing the fiber content and lowering energy values) without significantly compromising its sensory and functional properties. Incorporating RS ingredients into staple food products (such as bread, pasta, and sweet baked goods) may thus offer an array of nutritional benefits to the consumer and a highly accessible functional ingredient to be greater exploited by the food industry.

Abstract
This study investigated the in vitro digestion of purified pea fractions (protein isolate and starch) in sponge cakes when compared to unrefined pea flour and to the whole wheat flour and purified maize starch commonly used in the food industry. Proteins in the wheat cake were hydrolysed more rapidly than those in cakes made with either pea flour or a combination of pea proteins and purified starch. In absolute terms, however, more readily bioaccessible protein was released from these pea cakes (by around 40%). By contrast, cakes containing wheat flour or maize starch were more susceptible to amylolysis compared to those based on pea starch in the form of the purified ingredient or whole flour. This could be attributed to a higher proportion of amylose and resistant starch in the pea cakes as well as structural characteristics that might have decelerated enzyme-substrate interactions. Interestingly, similar digestion patterns were observed regarding the purified pea ingredients and unrefined whole pea flour. It was therefore concluded that pea ingredients, and particularly the less purified and thus more sustainable whole pea flour, are promising plant-based alternatives for use in gluten-free baked products.

Abstract
There are numerous challenges facing the modern food and agriculture industry that urgently need to be addressed, including feeding a growing global population, mitigating and adapting to climate change, decreasing pollution, waste, and biodiversity loss, and ensuring that people remain healthy. At the same time, foods should be safe, affordable, convenient, and delicious. The latest developments in science and technology are being deployed to address these issues. Some of the most important elements within this modern food design approach are encapsulated by the MATCHING model: Meat-reduced; Automation; Technology-driven; Consumer-centric; Healthy; Intelligent; Novel; and Globalization. In this review article, we focus on four key aspects that will be important for the creation of a new generation of healthier and more sustainable foods: emerging raw materials; structural design principles for creating innovative products; developments in eco-friendly packaging; and precision nutrition and customized production of foods. We also highlight some of the most important new developments in science and technology that are being used to create future foods, including food architecture, synthetic biology, nanoscience, and sensory perception.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/10408398.2022.2033683.

Abstract
Inherent characteristics of native starches such as water insolubility, retrogradation and syneresis, and instability in harsh processing conditions (e.g., high temperature and shearing, low pH) limit their industrial applications. As starch properties mainly depend on starch composition and structure, structural tailoring of starch has been important for overcoming functional limitations and expanding starch applications in different fields. In this review, we first introduce the basics of starch structure, properties, and functionalities and then describe the interactions of starch with lipids, polysaccharides, and phenolics. After reviewing genetic, chemical, and enzymatic modifications of starch, we describe current progress in the areas of porous starch and starch-based nanoparticles. New techniques, such as using the CRISPR-Cas9 technique to tailor starch structures and using an emulsion-assisted approach in forming functional starch nanoparticles, are only feasible when they are established based on fundamental knowledge of starch. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, Volume 13 is March 2022.

Abstract
Oats are a rich source of a soluble fibre, beta-glucan, phenolic compounds, as well as functional lipid and protein components that could potentially aid in preventing and managing hypertension. Processing techniques commonly used to manufacture oat based foods have been shown to improve its physiological efficacy. Hypertension is a common condition that is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, a primary cause of mortality worldwide. Though exercise and pharmacological interventions are often used in the management of hypertension, diet is an incredibly important factor. One preclinical study and a handful of clinical studies have shown that oat components/products are effective in lowering blood pressure. However, research in this area is limited and more studies are needed to elucidate the anti-hypertensive potential of oats.

[PMID: 34622485 DOI: 10.1111/jpn.13606] [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: 11/19/2020] [Revised: 04/11/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
The influence of specific thermal energy (STE) applications on extruder preconditioner was evaluated in a dry food for cats. In the first study, six STE applications were tested with mass temperatures of 45°C, 55°C, 65°C, 75°C, 85°C and 95°C. The extrusion parameters, starch gelatinization and kibble formation were evaluated. Diets were given to cats to evaluate digestibility, faecal characteristics and palatability. In the second experiment, three treatments were compared: low STE-a preconditioner temperature of 45°C (L STE); high STE-a preconditioner temperature of 95°C (H STE); high STE (preconditioner temperature of 95°C) combined with an increase in the mass flow rate to obtain a motor amperage similar to that of the L STE (H STEflow ). Data were analysed by polynomial contrasts (Experiment 1) or Tukey's test (Experiment 2; p < 0.05). An increase in STE reduced motor amperage, mass pressure and specific mechanical energy (SME) implementation (p < 0.001) and increased total specific energy (TSE) and mass temperature (p < 0.01). The increase in STE induced greater kibble expansion and starch gelatinization (p < 0.001). No changes in apparent nutrient digestibility or faeces characteristics were observed (p > 0.05). Lower STE and starch gelatinization induced higher butyrate and total volatile fatty acid (VFA) contents in faeces (p < 0.01). Cats showed greatest preference for the formulation with the highest STE (p < 0.01). In the second experiment, when the motor amperage was increased in the H STEflow treatment to a value similar to that of the L STE, the mass flow rate increased 40%, and the electric energy consumption remained unchanged (p < 0.001), with gains observed for efficiency and cost. In conclusion, STE application is important for sufficient TSE implementation, enhancing kibble expansion, starch gelatinization, cat preferences for food, extruder productivity and reducing SME application. Foods with lower starch gelatinization lead to increased VFA in faeces, with possible implications for gut health.

Abstract
Prenatal nutrient exposures can impact on brain development and disease susceptibility across the lifespan. It is well established that maternal macronutrient intake during pregnancy influences foetal and infant development. Therefore, we hypothesise that macronutrient intakes during pregnancy are correlated with cognitive development during early childhood. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between maternal macronutrient intake during pregnancy and child cognitive and behavioural outcomes at age 4 years. We analysed prospective data from a cohort of 64 Australian mother-child dyads. Maternal macronutrient intake was assessed using a validated 74-item food frequency questionnaire at 2 timepoints during pregnancy. Child cognition and behaviour were measured at age 4 years using the validated Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, 3rd version (WPPSI-III) and the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBC). Linear regression models were used to quantify statistical relationships and were adjusted for maternal age, education, pre-pregnancy BMI, breastfeeding duration and birthweight. Child Performance IQ was inversely associated with maternal starch intake (b = -11.02, p = 0.03). However, no other associations were found. Further research is needed to explore the association between different types of starch consumed during pregnancy and child cognitive development.

Abstract
Cereal germ (CG), a by-product of grain milling, has drawn much attention in the food industry because of its nutritional and functional advantages. Nowadays, the utilization of cereal germ from animal feeds to foodstuff is a popular trend. CGs have high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in their lipids (43.9-64.9% of total fatty acids), but they are also induced to oxidative rancidity under the catalytic reaction of enzymes. Chemical and structural properties of lipids in CGs are affected by different treatments. Thermal and non-thermal effects prevent lipid oxidation or promote lipid combination with starch/protein in CG. Thus, the functional properties and final quality of CG are directly changed. In this review, the chemical composition and application of CGs especially the endogenous lipids are summarized and the effects of various processes on CG lipids/matrices are discussed for CG future development.

Abstract
Simple Summary There is a particular need to find components for more sustainability in dog foods. Rye can be produced with a very low environmental impact among cereals. Animal products like hydrolyzed feather meal cannot be used for human consumption. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the offering of a vegetarian diet supplemented with or without feather meal and either corn meal, fermented rye or rye on the fecal quality and the digestibility of nutrients in dogs. Thus, eight Beagle dogs (11.0 ± 1.31 kg) with a median age of three years were included for this study. The dogs received a vegetarian basic diet containing wheat, broken rice and rice protein or the same diet supplemented with hydrolyzed feather meal (2.7%) and either 20.1% of corn meal, 60.4% of fermented rye or 20.1% of rye as is basis (moisture content of the diets about 42%). During the study, the feces were well formed and firm and the digestibility of the diet was not different by using rye compared to all other diets. Moreover, the acceptance “food intake scoring“ was similar among the experimental diets fed to dogs. Therefore, rye can be considered as an alternative cereal grain in dog foods. Abstract Cereals with low environmental input like rye and animal by-products which cannot be used for human food like feather meal are receiving growing interest as sustainable feed sources. Thus, eight Beagle dogs were included in a 4 × 4 Latin Square design and received a vegetarian basic diet or the same diets supplemented with hydrolyzed feather meal (2.7%) and either 20.1% of corn meal, 60.4% of fermented rye or 20.1% of rye as is basis (moisture content of the diets about 42%). Compared to other groups the dry matter (DM) content of feces from dogs fed the basic diet was higher (30.0%, p < 0.05), while dogs fed the basic diet + rye had the lowest DM-content (26.5%, p < 0.05). However, the fecal scores were considered to be within an acceptable range (well-formed and firm). Starch digestibility was lower (p < 0.05) for dogs fed the basic diet + corn meal. The dogs showed a high and identical acceptance (scoring of food intake) of the experimental diets. As a comparable quality of feces and a high nutrient digestibility were observed when rye was used in the experimental diets—it can be considered an alternative carbohydrate source in dog foods.

Abstract
The conformational properties of pyrodextrins from waxy maize starch were investigated by high performance size exclusion chromatography with multiple detectors, and the relationships (Mark-Houwink equations) between molecular weights and intrinsic viscosities of pyrodextrins in water were established. Pyrodextrin was prepared by adjusting waxy maize starch to pH 3 or 2, heating at 170 °C or 150 °C. As heating time increased from 0.5 to 4 h, the molecular size was decreased in the order of pH 2 and 150 °C > pH 3 and 170 °C > pH 3 and 150 °C. The measured exponent α values in Mark-Houwink equation indicated that the pyrodextrins prepared at pH 3, 170 °C and 150 °C only had one compact spherical conformation (α 0.27-0.31) during dextrinization, whereas the pyrodextrins prepared at pH 2 and 150 °C had a mixture of two shapes of molecules: compact sphere (α 0.26) and rigid coil (α 0.89) conformation.

Abstract
The modern food supply faces many challenges. The global population continues to grow and people are becoming wealthier, so the food production system must respond by creating enough high-quality food to feed everyone with minimal damage to our environment. The number of people suffering or dying from diet-related chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer, continues to rise, which is partly linked to overconsumption of highly processed foods, especially high-calorie or rapidly digestible foods. After falling for many years, the number of people suffering from starvation or malnutrition is rising, and thishas been exacerbated by the global COVID-19 pandemic. The highly integrated food supply chains that spread around the world are susceptible to disruptions due to policy changes, economic stresses, and natural disasters, as highlighted by the recent pandemic. In this perspective article, written by members of the Editorial Committee of the Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, we highlight some of the major challenges confronting the modern food supply chain as well as how innovations in policy and technology can be used to address them. Pertinent technological innovations include robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, advanced diagnostics, nanotechnology, biotechnology, gene editing, vertical farming, and soft matter physics. Many of these technologies are already being employed across the food chain by farmers, distributors, manufacturers, and consumers to improve the quality, nutrition, safety, and sustainability of the food supply. These innovations are required to stimulate the development and implementation of new technologies to ensure a more equitable, resilient, and efficient food production system. Where appropriate, these technologies should be carefully tested before widespread implementation so that proper risk-benefit analyses can be carried out. They can then be employed without causing unforeseen adverse consequences. Finally, it is important to actively engage all stakeholders involved in the food supply chain throughout the development and testing of these new technologies to support their adoption if proven safe and effective.

Food Chem 2020; 333:127425.

Abstract
Zero-salted yellow alkaline noodles (YAN) were immersed in solutions of resistant starch HYLON™ VII (HC) or fruit coating Semperfresh™ (SC) containing a range of salt (NaCl) between 10 and 30% (w/v). The objective was to evaluate the effect of salt-coatings on the textural, handling, cooking, and sensory properties of YAN. Increasing salt in the coatings caused a reduction in optimum cooking time, cooking loss and increase in cooking yield. The mechanical and textural parameters, sensory hardness, springiness and overall sensory acceptability of the salt-coated noodles however decreased with increasing salt application. HC-Na10 and SC-Na10 showed the highest textural and mechanical parameters, sensory hardness and springiness. The differences in the parameters were attributed mainly to the water absorption properties of starch that was affected by salt application. Thus, the quality of salt-coated noodles was dependent mainly on the amounts of salt applied in the coatings rather than on the types of coatings used.

Abstract
Resistant starches (RS) are dietary compounds processed by the gut microbiota into metabolites, such as butyrate, that are beneficial to the host. The production of butyrate by the microbiome appears to be affected by the plant source and type of RS as well as the individual's microbiota. In this study, we used in vitro culture and metaproteomic methods to explore individual microbiome's functional responses to RS2 (enzymatically-resistant starch), RS3 (retrograded starch) and RS4 (chemically-modified starch). Results showed that RS2 and RS3 significantly altered the protein expressions in the individual gut microbiomes, while RS4 did not result in significant protein changes. Significantly elevated protein groups were enriched in carbohydrate metabolism and transport functions of families Eubacteriaceae, Lachnospiraceae and Ruminococcaceae. In addition, Bifidobacteriaceae was significantly increased in response to RS3. We also observed taxon-specific enrichments of starch metabolism and pentose phosphate pathways corresponding to this family. Functions related to starch utilization, ABC transporters and pyruvate metabolism pathways were consistently increased in the individual microbiomes in response to RS2 and RS3. Given that these taxon-specific responses depended on the type of carbohydrate sources, we constructed a functional ecological network to gain a system-level insight of functional organization. Our results suggest that while some microbes tend to be functionally independent, there are subsets of microbes that are functionally co-regulated by environmental changes, potentially by alterations of trophic interactions.

Abstract
In the last century, starch present in foods was considered to be completely digested. However, during the 1980s, studies on starch digestion started to show that besides digestible starch, which could be rapidly or slowly hydrolysed, there was a variable fraction that resisted hydrolysis by digestive enzymes. That fraction was named resistant starch (RS) and it encompasses those forms of starch that are not accessible to human digestive enzymes but can be fermented by the colonic microbiota, producing short-chain fatty acids. RS has been classified into five types, depending on the mechanism governing its resistance to enzymatic hydrolysis. Early research on RS was focused on the methods to determine its content in foods and its physiological effects, including fermentability in the large intestine. Later on, due to the interest of the food industry, methods to increase the RS content of isolated starches were developed. Nowadays, the influence of RS on the gut microbiota is a relevant research topic owing to its potential health-related benefits. This review summarizes over 30 years of investigation on starch digestibility, its relationship with human health, the methods to produce RS and its impact on the microbiome. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Wheat-based foods have been staple foods since about 10,000 years and constitute a major source of energy, dietary fiber, and micronutrients for the world population. The role of wheat in our diet, however, has recently been scrutinized by pseudoscientific books and media reports promoting the overall impression that wheat consumption makes people sick, stupid, fat, and addicted. Consequently, numerous consumers in Western countries have started to question their dietary habits related to wheat consumption and voluntarily decided to adopt a wheat-free diet without a medical diagnosis of any wheat-related disorder (WRD), such as celiac disease, wheat allergy, or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. The aim of this review is to achieve an objective judgment of the positive aspects of wheat consumption as well as adverse effects for individuals suffering from WRDs. The first part presents wheat constituents and their positive nutritional value, in particular, the consumption of products from whole-grain flours. The second part is focused on WRDs that affect predisposed individuals and can be treated with a gluten-free or -reduced diet. Based on all available scientific knowledge, wheat consumption is safe and healthy for the vast majority of people. There is no scientific evidence to support that the general population would benefit from a wheat-free diet.
