Citric acid cross-linked pomegranate peel extract-loaded pH-responsive β-cyclodextrin/carboxymethyl tapioca starch hydrogel film for diabetic wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 274:133366. [PMID: 38914385 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133366] [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: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
Pomegranate peel extract (PPE) hydrogel films filled with citric acid (CA) and β-cyclodextrin-carboxymethyl tapioca starch (CMS) were designed mainly to prevent wound infections and speed up the healing process. FTIR and NMR studies corroborated the carboxymethylation of neat tapioca starch (NS). CMS exhibited superior swelling behavior than NS. The amount of CA and β-CD controlled the physicochemical parameters of developed PPE/CA/β-CD/CMS films. Optimized film (OF) exhibited acceptable swellability, wound fluid absorptivity, water vapor transmission rate, water contact angle, and mechanical properties. Biodegradable, biocompatible, and antibacterial films exhibited pH dependence in the release of ellagic acid for up to 24 h. In mice model, PPE/CA/β-CD/CMS hydrogel film treatment showed promising wound healing effects, including increased collagen deposition, reduced inflammation, activation of the Wingless-related integration site (wnt) pathway leading to cell division, proliferation, and migration to the wound site. The expression of the WNT3A gene did not show any significant differences among all the studied groups. Developed PPE-loaded CA/β-CD/CMS film promoted wound healing by epithelialization, granulation tissue thickness, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis, hence could be recommended as a biodegradable and antibacterial hydrogel platform to improve the cell proliferation during the healing of diabetic wounds.

Carbohydr Polym 2024; 330:121785. [PMID: 38368080 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.121785] [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: 04/06/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024]
Abstract
The relationship between the fine structure of starch and its gelatinization properties is not well studied, particularly in relation to the influence of sugar or sugar alcohol. In this study, seven starches with distinct molecular structures were investigated to determine how different sugars and sugar alcohols affect their gelatinization properties. The inclusion of sugars and sugar alcohols resulted in a significant elevation of starch gelatinization temperatures (∼ 8 °C), especially with sucrose, isomaltose and isomalt. Nevertheless, the influence of these sugars/ sugar alcohols on the gelatinization temperature range and enthalpy change varied depending on the particular starch varieties. According to the correlation analysis, sugars and sugar alcohols mainly exert their impact on the starch gelatinization temperature range and enthalpy change by possibly interacting with amylose chains possessing a degree of polymerization ranging from 100 to 1000 (p < 0.05) and inhibiting the amylose leaching during gelatinization. These findings help a better understanding of the complex relationship between starch fine structure and gelatinization properties under the influence of sugars and sugar alcohols.

Abstract
The evolution of the starch fine structure during growth and its impact on the gelatinization behavior of cassava starch (CS) was investigated by isolating starch from South China 6068 (SC6068) cassava harvested from the 4th to 9th growth period. During growth, the short-range ordered structure, crystallinity as well as particle size distribution of starch were increased. Meanwhile, the starch molecular size and amylopectin (AP) proportion increased, while the proportion of amylose (AM) exhibited a decreasing tendency. The chains of short-AM (X ~ 100-1000) were mainly significantly reduced, whereas the short and medium-AP chains (X ~ 6-24) had the most increment in AP. The solubility, thermal stability, shear resistance, and retrogradation resistance of starch were enhanced after gelatinized under the influence of the results mentioned above. This study presented a deeper insight into the variation of starch fine structure during growth and its influence on gelatinization behavior, which would provide a theoretical basis for starch industrial applications.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Laminaria japonica polysaccharide (LJP) and coumaric acid (CA) on pasting, rheological, retrogradation and structural properties of corn starch (CS). Rapid viscosity analysis (RVA) revealed that LJP significantly increased the peak viscosity, trough viscosity, final viscosity, and setback viscosity of CS gel (p < 0.05) in a concentration-dependent manner. The addition of LJP and CA simultaneously caused the pasting of CS to need a greater temperature (from 75.53 °C to 78.75 °C), suggesting that LJP and CA made CS pasting more difficult. Dynamic viscoelasticity measurements found that all gels exhibited typical characteristics of weak gel. When compared to CS gel, 4 % LJP increased the viscosity and fluidity of gel and the simultaneous addition of LJP and CA reduced the elasticity. The steady shear results showed that the all gels were pseudoplastic fluids with shear-thinning behavior. In the meanwhile, the addition of LJP and CA enhanced the pseudoplasticity of CS-LJP-CA gel and improved its shear thinning. Furthermore, thermodynamic results showed that 8 % LJP promoted the retrogradation of CS gel and 2.0 % CA delayed the retrogradation of CS gel. Notably, on the 7th day of retrogradation, 2.0 % CA significantly decreased the retrogradation rate of CS-LJP by 19.31 % as compared to CS + 8 % LJP. Microstructure observation revealed that LJP made the honeycomb network structure of CS gel partially collapsed, and the surface of CS-LJP gel developed venation. Nevertheless, the structure of CS-LJP gel was clearly enhanced by adding CA. FT-IR spectra demonstrated that the addition of LJP or CA to CS did not result in the formation of a new distinctive peak in the system, suggesting the absence of a new group. Moreover, LF-NMR findings showed that LJP and CA strengthened the gel structure of CS and enhanced its capacity to retain water. This study not only provided a new insight into using LJP and CA to regulate the gel properties of CS, but also provided scientific strategy for developing starchy foods.

Abstract
This study aimed to find a unique method to assess the textural properties of Niangao (glutinous rice cakes), to determine the relationship between the textural properties of rice cakes and the indicators of glutinous rice, and to identify the key indicators that significantly affect the textural properties of Niangao. The study encompassed the analysis of the chemical composition and pasting characteristics of 22 glutinous rice varieties, revealing the substantial impact of variety on lipid content, straight-chain starch content, and pasting performance. Subsequently, the textural features of the resulting Niangao were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA) to derive a mathematical method for evaluating their textural attributes, with the obtained scores employed in hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) to identify 12 key textural characteristics. Further analysis using stepwise linear regression (SLR) demonstrated that the regression model incorporating final and peak viscosities of the glutinous rice significantly predicted the composite score of the Niangao's textural properties. This highlights the importance of final and peak viscosities as key indicators for assessing the textural quality of Niangao.

Abstract
Steviol glycosides possess Bola-form amphiphilic structure, which can solubilize hydrophobic phytochemicals and exert physical modification to the hydrophilic matrix. However, the effect of steviol glycosides on the starch hydrogel is still unclear. Herein, the physicochemical properties, in vitro digestibility, and release behavior of starch hydrogel in the presence of steviol glycosides were investigated. The results showed that the addition of steviol glycosides promoted the gelatinization and gelation of starch, and endowed the starch hydrogel with softer texture, larger volume, and higher water holding capacity. The hydrophobic curcumin was well integrated into hydrogel by steviol glycosides, providing the gel with improved colour brilliance. The introduction of steviol glycosides hardly affected the digestibility of starch gel, but it promoted the release rate of curcumin. Notably, this release behavior was pH dependent, which tended to target the alkaline intestine. This work provided some theoretical supports for the development of sugar-free starchy foods.

Abstract
The interaction between starch and protein during food processing is crucial for controlling food quality. This study aims to understand the interactions between corn starch and black bean protein isolate (BBPI) at various gelatinization phases and their effects on the physicochemical properties of the blends. BBPI reduced the rheological properties of the corn starch/BBPI mixed system during gelatinization, increasing light transmittance and gelatinization temperature, while decreasing total viscosity and enthalpy change. The changes in starch and protein microstructure during gelatinization indicated that BBPI adhered to the starch particle surface or partially penetrated the swollen starch particles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed that BBPI decreased the number of hydrogen bonds within starch, with no newly formed functional groups in the mixed system. Furthermore, BBPI reduced the composite relative crystallinity (RC). The effect of protein addition on water migration in the mixed system demonstrates that protein and starch compete for water during gelatinization, preventing water molecules from diffusing into starch particles.

Abstract
Buckwheat is considered as a healthy cereal food, and it is essential to cultivate new buckwheat lines with good starch physicochemical properties for both consumers and food producers. Six novel buckwheat (Duoku, Dk) were generated by crossing of Golden buckwheat and Tatary buckwheat, and their kernel appearance properties and starch physicochemical properties were analyzed together with one domestic line (Cimiqiao) and one wild line (Yeku). The results showed that Dk samples had better appearance properties than two control samples. The Dk samples showed lower amylose content, similar amylopectin molecular structure and chain length distributions, and larger starch granules compared with Cimiqiao. The digestion results showed that two Dk samples: Dk6 & Dk9 had high resistant starch content; while the other two Dk samples: Dk37 & Dk38 had a steady glucose releasing rate. The Dk samples also showed high gelatinization temperature, indicating they were good raw materials for producing glass noodle. This study proved that Dk buckwheat had unique starch physicochemical properties, and could be used as new food materials in the future.

Abstract
Starch chain-length distributions play an important role in controlling cereal product texture and starch physicochemical properties. Cooked foxtail millet texture and starch physicochemical properties were investigated and correlated with starch chain-length distributions in eight foxtail millet varieties. The average chain lengths of amylopectin and amylose were in the range of DP 24-25 and DP 878-1128, respectively. The percentage of short amylopectin chains (Ap1) was negatively correlated with hardness but positively correlated with adhesiveness and cohesion. Conversely, the amount of amylose intermediate chains was positively correlated with hardness but negatively correlated with adhesiveness and cohesion. Additionally, the amount of amylose long chains was negatively correlated with adhesiveness and chewiness. The relative crystallinity (RC) of starch decreased with reductions in the length of amylopectin short chains in foxtail millet. Pasting properties were mainly influenced by the relative length of amylopectin side chains and the percentage of long amylopectin branches (Ap2). Longer amylopectin long chains resulted in lower gelatinization temperature and enthalpy (ΔH). The amount of starch branched chains had important effects on the gelatinization temperature range (ΔT). These results can provide guidance for breeders and food scientists in the selection of foxtail millet with improved quality properties.

Abstract
Starchy foods are a major energy source of the human diet, their digestion is closely related to human health. Most foods require lots of processing before eating, therefore, many factors can influence starch digestibility. The factors that affect the digestibility of starches have been widely discussed previously, but the extracted starches in those studies were different from those present within the actual food matrix. This review summarizes the factors influencing the starch digestibility in starchy foods. Endogenous non-starch components hinder the starch digestive process. Food ingredients and additives decrease starch digestibility by inhibiting the activity of digestive enzymes or hindering the contact between starch and enzymes. Storage induce the retrogradation of starch, decreasing the digestibility of foods. Therefore, preparing starchy foods with whole grains, processing them as little as possible, using food additives reasonably, and storage conditions may all be beneficial measures for the production of low GI foods.

Abstract
The structure and thermal properties of pulsed electric field (PEF) assisted sodium hypochlorite oxidized starch were investigated. The carboxyl content of the oxidized starch was increased by 25 % when compared with the traditional oxidation method. Dents and cracks were evident on the surface of the PEF-pretreated starch. Compared with native starch, the peak gelatinization temperature (Tp) of PEF-assisted oxidized starch (POS) was reduced by 10.3 °C, while that of the oxidized starch without PEF treatment (NOS) was only reduced by 7.4 °C. In addition, PEF treatment further reduces the viscosity and improve the thermal stability of the starch slurry. Therefore, PEF treatment combined with hypochlorite oxidation is an effective method to prepare oxidized starch. PEF showed great potential in expanding starch modification, to promote a wider application of oxidized starch in the paper, the textile and the food industry.

Abstract
This study presents the effects of dry heat (DH) assisted by pre-and post-electron beam (EB) treatment on buckwheat starch's multiscale structural, physicochemical, and digestive properties. The granule integrity and crystal shape were not affected by the investigated treatments. However, DH and EB treatments decreased amylose content, crystallinity, molecular weight, swelling power, thermal transition temperatures and gelatinization enthalpy while increasing solubility and the content of A chain, B1 chain, and resistant starch. EB application to DH starch promoted subsequent structural changes and enhanced starch properties compared to samples DH-processed alone. In addition, EB-induced starch chain depolymerization and structural rearrangement had sequential effects. EB pre-treatment reduced DH starch's amylose content, molecular weight, and swelling power while enhancing the content of A- chain, rapidly digestible starch, and resistant starch compared with EB post-treatment. This innovative study provides a theoretical basis for the potential applicability of EB irradiation in modifying the properties of DH starch.

The Effects of Starch Molecular Fine Structure on Thermal and Digestion Properties of Rice Starch. Foods 2022; 11:foods11244012.

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
BackgroundSimulated oral processing can be used to evaluate the palatability of cooked rice. Previously, we established a simulated oral processing method using a texture analyzer equipped with a multiple extrusion cell probe (TA/MEC). However, the relationship between oral processing and starch fine structure remains unknown.MethodsIn this study, we analyzed the oral processing properties using TA/MEC and characterized the starch fine structure of japonica rice by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and fluorophore-assisted capillary electrophoresis (FACE). The relationship between starch fine structure and oral processing of cooked japonica rice was further investigated.ResultsCooked rice structure contains fast-breakdown (Type I structure), slow-breakdown (Type II structure) and unbreakable structures (Type III structure). Fast-breakdown and slow-breakdown structure were positively correlated with the content of amylose and shorter amylopectin branches. The content of longer amylopectin branches was positively correlated with the contribution of unbreakable structure.ConclusionThe results indicated that cooked japonica rice varieties with more amylose and shorter amylopectin branches tend to form a harder texture and need more work to break down the fast and slow breakdown structures related to rice kernel fragmentation. Meanwhile, cooked japonica rice varieties possess stronger molecular entanglements due to their longer amylopectin branches and contribute more to the breakdown of unbreakable structures. These results can guide breeders to select rice varieties with desirable eating qualities for cultivation.

Abstract
Cold plasma is a low-cost, simple and green method for starch modification. In the present study, the impact of corn starch modification by cold plasma (CP, 1, 3 and 9 min), sodium trimetaphosphate/sodium tripolyphosphate (CL, 1 %, 5 % and 10 %) and their combination were investigated. CP-pretreatment had enhancement of phosphorus content and substitution degree. Neither CP nor CL destroyed the starch granules morphology. Instead, CP induced more short-chain to better rearrange the starch during the crosslinking process, which improved the efficiency of the crosslinker in the subsequent crosslinking process. Therefore, compared with CL or CP, the thermal transition temperatures increased after CP pretreatment, while the amylose content, relative crystallinity, swelling power, and △H decreased. Meanwhile, CP-pretreatment changed the internal structure of the CL-starch so that it showed the lowest enzymatic digestibility. CP pretreatment provides a promising way to improve cross-linked starch's structure, properties, and efficiency.

Abstract
Many properties of starch-containing foods are significantly statistically correlated with various structural parameters. The significance of a correlation is judged by the p-value, and this evaluation is based on the assumption of linear relationships between structural parameters and properties. We here examined the linearity assumption to see if it can be used to predict properties at conditions that are not close to those under which they were measured. For this we used both common domesticated rices (DRs) and Australian wild rices (AWRs), the latter having significantly different structural parameters and properties compared to DRs. The results showed that (1) the properties were controlled by more than just the amylopectin or amylose chain-length distributions or amylose content, other structural features also being important, (2) the linear model can predict the enthalpy ΔHg of both AWRs and DRs from the structural parameters to some extent but is often not accurate; it can predict the ΔHg of indica rices with acceptable accuracy from the chain length distribution and the amount of longer amylose chains (degree of polymerization > 500), and (3) the linear model can predict the stickiness of both AWRs and DRs to acceptable accuracy in terms of the amount of longer amylose chains. Thus, the commonly used linearity assumption for structure-property correlations needs to be regarded circumspectly if also used for quantitative prediction.

Abstract
The main purpose of this work is the development of a value-added product (candied chestnuts) from Portuguese chestnut (Castanea sativa) cultivars (Martainha, Longal and Judia), as a way to minimize product loss and wastes. To accomplish this goal, the effects of rehydration, cooking, and syrup conditions on composition, textural properties, and colour parameters of candied chestnuts were investigated. The obtained results revealed that the optimal conditions to prepare candied chestnuts with a sweet taste, dark brown colour, with a crispy texture on the outside and smooth texture in the inner flesh were rehydration at 45 °C for a period of 5 h, cooking in a pressure pan for 15 min, and an immersion process with sucrose syrup for two days (syrup with 25% of sucrose on the first day and syrup of 50% of sucrose on the second day). During the process, the drying loss, hydration ratio, and cooking gain of the different cultivars were about 90%, 79%, and 130%, respectively. The total colour difference of candied chestnuts ranged from 24.18 (Longal) to 29.95 (Judia), the stickiness was moderately intense, and the adhesiveness was high for the three varieties. Longal candied chestnuts were the softest and Martainha candied chestnuts were the hardest, the most elastic, and cohesive. Moreover, the candied chestnuts presented a moisture content ranging from 52.70% and 54.23%, amounts of carbohydrates in the range of 88.58 to 91.87 g/100 g d.m, values of protein (6.55–9.51 g/100 g d.m.), values of ash (0.78–1.98 g/100 g d.m.), and fat (0.87–1.58 g/100 g d.m.). In conclusion, the chestnuts of Portuguese cultivars Martainha, Longal and Judia reveal a good potential to produce candied products with high added value.
