Xie Q, Wu S, Lai S, Ye F. Effects of Stir-Frying and Heat-Moisture Treatment on the Physicochemical Quality of Glutinous Rice Flour for Making Taopian, a Traditional Chinese Pastry. Foods 2024; 13:2069. [PMID: 38998574 DOI: 10.3390/foods13132069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Taopian is a traditional Chinese pastry made from cooked glutinous rice flour. The effects of heat-moisture treatment (110 °C, 4 h; moisture contents 12-36%, w/w) on the preparation of cooked glutinous rice flour and taopian made from it were compared with the traditional method of stir-frying (180 °C, 30 s). The color of heat-moisture-treated (HMT) flours was darker. HMT flours exhibited a larger mean particle size (89.5-124 μm) and a greater relative crystallinity of starch (23.08-42.92%) and mass fractal dimension (1.77-2.28). The flours exhibited water activity in the range of 0.589-0.631. Although the oil-binding capacity of HMT flours was largely comparable to that of stir-fried flours, HMT flours exhibited a lower water absorption index. Accordingly, the taopian produced with HMT flours exhibited a lower brightness, accompanied by a stronger reddening and yellowing. In addition, more firmly bound water was observed in the taopian produced with HMT flour. The taopian made with HMT flour with a moisture content of 24% exhibited moderate hardness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness and received the highest score for overall acceptability (6.80). These results may be helpful to improve the quality of taopian by applying heat-moisture treatment in the preparation of cooked glutinous rice flour.

Physicochemical changes in starch during the conversion of corn to tortilla in the traditional nixtamalization process associated with RS 2. Food Chem 2024; 439:138088.

Abstract
This work aimed to study the changes in starch and isolated starch resulting from the conversion of corn to tortilla, focusing on the orthorhombic crystal structure and its association with resistant starch. Scanning electron microscopy images show whole, partially, and completely damaged starch granules in nixtamalized corn, masa, and tortillas. More importantly, whole isolated starch granules were found in nixtamal, masa, and tortillas. Transmission electron microscopy shows the presence of nanocrystals with orthorhombic structures in isolated starch. Some of them remained almost undamaged during the nixtamalization process. The X-ray patterns showed orthorhombic crystals in nixtamal, masa, and tortilla and their isolated starches. The RS increased from 2.61 to 5.31 % from corn to tortilla and from 2.52 to 5.61 % for isolated starches from corn and tortilla during the traditional nixtamalization process. The results suggest that the nanocrystals in corn to tortilla are part of RS2.

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.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131468. [PMID: 38599432 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131468] [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: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
In this work, the changes in the composition of the flours and in the morphological, structural, thermal, vibrational, rheological, and functional properties of the isolated lentil starch during the germination process were investigated. The fiber, fat, and ash content of the flours decreased and the protein content increased, while the apparent amylose content of the starch granules remained constant. Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the starch granules remained intact during germination, and no enzymatic activity of α- and β-amylases was observed. X-ray diffraction shows that the starch has nanocrystals with hexagonal structure which predominate over the nanocrystals with orthorhombic structure and are classified as C-type starch. The most important result is that these nanocrystals do not play an important role during germination. As the germination time progresses, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) shows a decrease in the gelatinization temperature (Tp) of the starch, ranging from 70.34 ± 0.25 °C for the native lentil starch to values of 67.16 ± 0.37 °C for the starch on the fourth day of germination (ILS4), this transition being related to the solvation of the nanocrystals. On the other hand, the pasting profiles show no significant changes during germination, indicating that no significant changes in starch content occur during germination. Starch degradation is essential for the production of malt for fermented beverages. This fact makes sprouted lentils not a candidate for the short-term fermentation required in the beverage industry.

Food Chem 2024; 432:137184.

Abstract
Starch and modified starch, spanning various structural levels, are comprehensively reviewed, with a special emphasis on the advancement of starch and its derivative-based delivery systems for bioactive substances. The pivotal aspect highlighted is the controlled release of active ingredients by starch-based delivery systems with distinct hierarchical structures. At the molecular level, diverse categories of starch degradation products, such as dextrin and highly branched starch, serve as versatile amphiphilic carriers for encapsulating active ingredients. At the level of helical structure, the distinctive configuration of the starch-guest complex partly determines the mechanism of controlled release for diverse active components. At the crystal and particle structural level, starch assumes the role of a carrier, effectively modulating the release of active substances, and enhances the innate physiological activity of different active components. As a natural polymer molecule, starch can also generate hydrogel materials in polymer form, expanding its utility in the fields of food, materials, and even medicine.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the properties of isolated starches from ten commonly consumed rice varieties in China and to investigate their possible association. In addition, principal component analysis (PCA) and correlation analysis were performed to demonstrate the weight or relevance of different properties. The starch granules had an irregular polyhedral structure. The crystalline structure had an orthogonal arrangement, which is characteristic of A-type starch with nanocrystals with an orthorhombic crystal structure. In addition, higher levels of rapidly digestible starch (72.43 to 74.32%) and resistant starch (2.27 to 2.3%) were found in glutinous rice starch. The highest content of slowly digestible starch (59.48%) was found in starch isolated from black rice, which may be an ideal rice variety for controlling blood glucose and weight. Starch isolated from red Hani terrace rice showed the highest thermal stability during cooking and the highest resistance to a high shear force treatment. In addition, the PCA suggests that the amylose content of starch largely determines the functional properties of starch and positively correlates with the peak viscosity and setback viscosity of the starch pasting. The results of this study will enrich the scientific knowledge of various rice starches and promote their application in the food industry and other industries.

Abstract
Granule size is a critical parameter affecting starch processing properties. Ultrasound treatments of up to 22 h were applied on two starches differing in granule size (quinoa starch and maize starch). The two starches showed significantly different trends in both structural and physicochemical aspects affected by the ultrasound treatments. For the small granule starch (volume-weighted mean particle size of 1.79 μm), short-term ultrasonication caused an increase of swelling power. As the treatment time increased, the physicochemical properties were influenced by the degradation of amylopectin external chains. The X-ray diffraction results showed a decrease of relative crystallinity and changes of peak areas with long-term treatment. On the other hand, a balance between amylose leaching and surface damages was seen for the large granule starch (volume-weighted mean particle size of 18.3 μm). The effect of ultrasound modification on starches with different molecular and granular structures was discussed. A possible mechanism of the ultrasound effect was proposed.

Changes in the physicochemical properties of isolated starch and plantain ( Musa AAB Simmonds) flours for early maturity stage. Heliyon 2023; 9:e18939.

Abstract
This work focuses on the study of the physicochemical changes that take place during the first stage of ripening of plantain, with particular attention to the changes in the orthorhombic and hexagonal nanocrystals present in this starch, and its relation shift with resistance starch. Significant changes were observed in the proximal analysis of plantain flour. A gradual increase in moisture content was attributed to the high content of crystalline structures and molecules that can be removed by drying. Water activity increased with ripening, which was attributed to the hygroscopic nature of the flours. The protein content increased, and the carbohydrate content decreased, indicating the progress of biochemical reactions. The changes in the fat content are consistent with the hydrolysis and resynthesis of lipids during the ripening process. The obtained results indicate a significant influence of the ripening stage on the physicochemical properties of flour and starch of plantain, which is associated with the occurrence of a climacteric peak on the 4th day of ripening. The hydration properties of plantain flour decreased significantly during the ripening days, consistent with the occurrence of a climacteric peak. Water holding capacity (WHC) and water binding capacity (WBC) were affected by the degree of digestion of native starch granules and protein denaturation during fruit ripening. Scanning electron microscopes (SEM) showed that during ripening the surface of the isolated starches do not suffer any significative damage. X-ray diffraction patterns were used to identify crystalline structures and to study the changes in the crystalline structures. These results showed that the starch contains orthorhombic and hexagonal nanocrystals, which play and important role and which show small structural damage during ripening reflected in a decrease in their relative crystallinity. This is the first time that these nanocrystals have been studied and considered in the ripening process. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to study the thermal transition in isolated starch. The results indicated that the gelatinization of starch corresponds to the solvation of orthorhombic and hexagonal nanocrystals, and that during ripening there is a decrease in the enthalpy reflecting some crystal structural damage. Pasting properties were studied using a Starch cell for flours and isolated starches, indicating that the pasting profile is governed by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The resistant starch does not show significant changes at this stage of maturation. This starch is the one with the highest resistant starch content reported in the literature (38%). It was hypothesized that the resistant starch is directly related to the amount of whole starch granules, and more importantly, directly related to the number concentration of orthorhombic and hexagonal nanocrystals. Therefore, knowledge of the physicochemical and nutritional properties of plantain and flour at each stage of ripening allows better selection according to industrial applications.

Abstract
Whole white rice is a major staple food for human consumption, with its starch digestion rate and location in the gastrointestinal tract having a critical role for human health. Starch has a multi-scale structure, which undergoes order-disorder transitions during rice cooking, and this structure is a major determinant of its digestibility. The length distributions of amylose and amylopectin chains are important determinants of rice starch gelatinization properties. Starch chain-length and molecular-size distributions are important determinants of nucleation and crystal growth rates, as well as of intra- and intermolecular interactions during retrogradation. A number of first-order kinetics models have been developed to fit starch digestograms, producing new information on the structural basis for starch digestive characteristics of cooked whole rice. Different starch digestible fractions with distinct digestion patterns have been found for the digestion of rice starch in fully gelatinized and retrograded states, the digestion kinetics of which are largely determined by starch fine molecular structures. Current insights and future directions to better understand digestibility of starch in whole cooked rice are summarized, pointing to ways of developing whole rice into a healthier food by way of having slower starch digestibility.

Abstract
Starch can be found in the stems, roots, fruits, and seeds of plants such as sweet potato, cassava, corn, potato, and many more. In addition to its original form, starch can be modified by reducing its size. Starch nanoparticles have a small size and large active surface area, making them suitable for use as fillers or as a reinforcing material in bioplastics. The aim of reinforcing material is to improve the characteristics of bioplastics. This literature study aims to provide in-depth information on the potential use of starch nanoparticles as a reinforcing material in bioplastic packaging. This study also reviews starch size reduction methods including acid hydrolysis, nanoprecipitation, milling, and others; characteristics of the nano-starch particle; and methods to produce bioplastic and its characteristics. The use of starch nanoparticles as a reinforcing material can increase tensile strength, reduce water vapor and oxygen permeability, and increase the biodegradability of bioplastics. However, the use of starch nanoparticles as a reinforcing material for bioplastic packaging still encounters obstacles in its commercialization efforts, due to high production costs and ineffectiveness.

The Chenopodium genus includes >250 species, among which only quinoa, pigweed, djulis, and kaniwa have been explored for starches. Chenopodium is a non-conventional and rich source of starch, which has been found effective in producing different classes of food. Chenopodium starches are characterized by their smaller granule size (0.4-3.5 μm), higher swelling index, shorter/lower gelatinization regions/temperature, good emulsifying properties, and high digestibility, making them suitable for food applications. However, most of the investigations into Chenopodium starches are in the primary stages (isolation, modification, and characterization), except for quinoa. This review comprehensively explores the major developments in Chenopodium starch research, emphasizing isolation, structural composition, functionality, hydrolysis, modification, and application. A critical analysis of the trends, limitations, and scope of these starches for novel food applications has also been provided to promote further scientific advancement in the field.

Abstract
Quinoa starch granular structure as affected by nonenyl succinic anhydride (NSA) substitution was investigated by multiple approaches, including scattering, spectroscopic, and microscopic techniques. The modification had little impact on the morphology of starch granules. The NSA substitution was found mainly in the amorphous lamellae and amorphous growth rings. The NSA modification increased the thickness of the amorphous lamellae. The homogeneity of the ordered structure in the granules was improved, probably because the NSA modification reduced the amount of defects in the semi-crystalline growth ring. Compared to other chemical modifications such as acylation, succinylation was more effective in modifying the starch lamellar structure. A possible reaction pattern of NSA modification on quinoa starch is proposed, in which the NSA modification may follow the sequence of amorphous growth rings, the amorphous matrices among blocklets, amorphous and crystalline lamellae in semi-crystalline growth rings. This study provides new insights on the structural changes of starch granules induced by succinylation on the supramolecular level.

Abstract
This work focused on studying the mineral composition, morphology, thermal, structural, and pasting properties of isolated plantain starch. Plantain starch is rich in K, and other ions as Mg, Ca, P, and Si were found. This starch exhibits lenticular, elliptical, and semispherical morphologies. Two endothermal events present in the thermogram were identified as the hexagonal and orthorhombic solvation. C-type starch formed by hexagonal and orthorhombic nanocrystal was completely indexed. The ash content showed the presence of calcium phosphate (KCaP2O7), Calcium Magnesium Phosphate (Ca2.71Mg0.29(PO4)2), and silicon oxide (SiO2). The pasting profile of this starch behaves between a custard and a hydrogel. Scanning electron microscopy of the lyophilized samples along pasting profile confirms that the shear and van der Walls forces and slurry morphology govern the pasting profile changes.

Abstract
This work focused on the physicochemical properties of isolated Amaranth starch. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) showed that amaranth is low-lipid calcium and magnesium source for the human diet. Scanning Electron Microscopy showed that isolated granules are in the range of sub and micro size. DSC starch thermogram showed a gelatinization temperature of 67.9 °C and an enthalpy of 10. 6 J/g suggesting the presence of an ordered crystalline structures. High-resolution X-ray diffraction showed the isolated starch contents nanocrystals with an orthorhombic crystalline structure whose pattern was indexed. The pasting profile showed that this kind of starch has an end cold viscosity as a custard, making it useful for infantile formulations. It does not present dynamic viscosity and would not be a problem when swallowed. A very important finding in this work was that the orthorhombic nanocrystals, after solvation during gelatinization, do not contribute to the apparent viscosity development.
