Dielectric barrier discharge plasma pre-treatment to facilitate the acetylation process of corn starch under heating/cooling cycles. Food Chem 2024; 453:139711. [PMID: 38781893 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139711] [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: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
The objective of the current work was to evaluate the impacts of dielectric barrier discharge plasma and repeated dry-heat treatments on the acetylation process of corn starch. The combined modification resulted in a higher substitution degree of acetate groups on starch chains compared to the acetylation treatment alone. This outcome was linked to the increase in surface area and structural organization level of granules achieved through the application of plasma and heating/cooling cycles, respectively. The successful esterification of starch structure was verified through FTIR (1710 cm-1) and 1H NMR (2 ppm). With the increase in plasma treatment duration up to 20 min, gelatinization enthalpy increased (10.81 J/g) due to the cross-linking reaction. Starch acetate produced through the combined treatment could find the application in the development of low-calorie food formulations due to its high resistant starch (70.5 g/100 g) and low viscosity (43 mPa s).

Abstract
The inherent side effects of the physico-chemical properties of native starches often severely limit their use in food and non-food industries. Plasma is a non-thermal technology that allows rapid improvement of functional properties. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the sources and mechanisms of action of cold plasma and assesses its effects on starch morphology, crystal structure, molecular chain structure and physicochemical properties. The complex relationship between structure and function of plasma-treated starch is also explored. Potential applications of plasma-modified starch are also discussed in detail. The outcome of the modification process is influenced by factors such as starch type and concentration, plasma source, intensity and duration. The properties of starch can be effectively optimised using plasma technology. Plasma-based technologies therefore have the potential to modify starch to create a range of functionalities to meet the growing market demand for clean label ingredients.

Abstract
In this paper, different NaCl content was added to wheat starch and then subjected to X-ray irradiation to investigate the effect of salt on starch modification by irradiation. The results showed that the degradation of wheat starch intensified with the increase in irradiation dose. When irradiated at the same dose, wheat starch with sodium chloride produced shorter chains, lower molecular weight and amylose content, and higher crystallinity, solubility, and resistant starch than wheat starch without sodium chloride. The energy generated by X-rays dissociating sodium chloride caused damage to the glycoside bonds of the starch molecule. With a further increase in the mass fraction of NaCl, the hydrogen bonds of the starch molecules were broken, and the double helix structure was depolymerized, which exacerbated the extent of irradiation-modified wheat starch. At the same time, starch molecules will be rearranged to form a more stable structure.

Abstract
This study investigated the effectiveness of cold-plasma treatment using air and argon as input gas on deactivation of lipolytic enzymes in lightly-milled-rice (LMR). The results showed no significant inactivation in lipase and lipoxygenase using air-plasma. However, using argon as input gas, the residual activities of lipase and lipoxygenase were reduced to 64.51 % and 29.15 % of initial levels, respectively. Argon plasma treatment resulted in more substantial augmentation in peak and breakdown viscosities of LMR starch, suggesting an enhancement in palatability of cooked LMR with increased stickiness and decreased hardness. In contrast to the decrease in volatile compounds in LMR following argon plasma treatment, the concentrations of several prevalent aroma compounds, including 1-hexanol, 1-hexanal, and 2-pentylfuran, exhibited significant increments, reaching 1489.70 ng/g, 3312.10 ng/g, and 58.80 ng/g, respectively. These findings suggest the potential for enhancing various facets of the commercial qualities of LMR by utilizing different input gases during plasma treatment.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:132159. [PMID: 38719018 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132159] [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: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, the focus has shifted towards carbohydrate-based hydrogels and their eco-friendly preparation methods. This study involved an investigation into the treatment of wheat starch using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma technology over varying time gradients (0, 2, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min). The objective was to systematically examine the impact of different treatment durations on the physicochemical properties of wheat starch and the suitability of its gels for 3D printing. Morphology of wheat starch remained intact after DBD treatment. However, it led to a reduction in the amylose content, molecular weight, and crystallinity. This subsequently resulted in a decrease in the pasting temperature and viscosity. Moreover, the gels of the DBD-treated starch exhibited superior 3D printing performance. After a 2-min DBD treatment, the 3D printed samples of the wheat starch gel showed no significant improvements, as broken bars were evident on the surface of the 3D printed graphic, whereas DBD-20 showed better printing accuracy and surface structure, compared to the original starch without slumping. These results suggested that DBD technology holds potential for developing new starch-based gels with impressive 3D printing properties.

Abstract
The effect of atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) with different discharge power (0, 400, 600, and 800 W) on the structure and physicochemical properties of wheat starch were evaluated in this study. After APPJ treatments, significant declines in peak viscosity, breakdown viscosity, and final viscosity of wheat starch pasting parameters were observed with increase of plasma treatment power. Being treated with discharge power of 800 W, the PV and BD value of wheat starch paste significantly dropped to 2,578 and 331 cP, respectively. Apparently, APPJ could raise the solubility of wheat starch, while reduce the swelling capacity, and also lower the G' and G″ value of wheat starch gel. Roughness and apparent scratch was observed on the surface of the treated wheat starch granules. Although APPJ treatment did not alter wheat starch's crystallization type, it abated the relative crystallinity. APPJ treatment might be useful in producing modified wheat starch with lower viscosity and higher solubility.

Abstract
This research was conducted to evaluate the effects of cold plasma (CP) on finger millet starch (FMS). FMS was exposed to partially ionized gas at varying voltages (170, 200, and 230 Volt) for varied time (10, 20, and 30 mins). The impact of treatment was studied using physico-chemical, and functional properties, and the mechanisms of starch modification occurring were stated. A significant reduction in the degree of polymerization was noticed based on parameters like reducing sugar, amylose content, solubility, and molecular weight. However, in certain voltage and time combinations, crosslinking was also confirmed by analysis such as XRD, FTIR, DSC, etc. The properties of starch were altered such as remarkable increase in water solubility by 6.7 times for highest voltage and longest time (230 V/30 min) was registered. NMR data suggested valuable findings- oxidation of OH group at C6 position of starch led to formation of carbonyl group followed by carboxyl group. NMR also showed a decrease in OH protons confirming crosslinking and hence all these analyses helped to conclude findings about the quality changes using CP. It was observed that the highest voltage and considerably longer exposure time of 20 and 30 min induced significant changes in the FMS.

Abstract
The effects of plasma treatment on multi-scale structures and in vitro digestibility of starches isolated from Tartary buckwheat (TBS), potato (PTS), and pea (PS), were investigated. The results from SEM and CLSM showed that plasma treatment resulted in the extension of pores from the starch hilum to the surface. The XRD and 13C CP/MAS NMR spectra demonstrated that the crystalline type of three starches was not changed by plasma treatment, while the RC and double helix content of TBS increased. Besides, the single helix content and the proportion of amorphous phase decreased following the treatment, which was consistent with the result of SAXS. However, the PTS and PS showed the opposite results by plasma treatment. In addition, the modification significantly changed the molecular weight (Mw) and chain length distribution of all the starches, among which the Mw of PTS fell drastically from 2.45 × 107 g/mol to 1.74 × 107 g/mol. The in vitro digestibility of starches increased significantly when treated with plasma, in which TBS exhibited the biggest increase for its inside-out and side-by-side digestion manners. Therefore, plasma treatment led to different alteration trends for multi-scale structures with quite various change extent for in vitro digestibility about different crystalline starches.

Abstract
Banana starch has attracted significant attention due to its abundant content of resistant starch. This study aims to compare the multiscale structure and functional properties of banana starch obtained from five cultivated varieties and investigate the impact of dielectric barrier discharge cold plasma (DBD) treatment on these starch characteristics. All five types of natural banana starch exhibited an elliptical and irregular shape, conforming to the CB crystal structure, with a bimodal distribution of branch chain lengths. The resistant starch content ranged from 88.9 % to 94.1 %. Variations in the amylose content, amylopectin branch chain length distribution, and structural characteristics resulted in differences in properties such as gelatinization behavior and sensitivity to DBD treatment. The DBD treatment inflicted surface damage on starch granules, reduced the amylose content, shortened the amylopectin branch chain length, and changed the relative crystallinity to varying degrees. The DBD treatment significantly increased starch solubility and light transmittance. Simultaneously, it resulted in a noteworthy decrease in peak viscosity and gelatinization enthalpy of starch paste. The in vitro digestibility test showed that 76.2 %-86.5 % of resistant starch was retained after DBD treatment. The DBD treatment renders banana starch with reduced viscosity, increased paste transparency, enhanced solubility, and broadens its potential application.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of E-beam irradiation (EBI) on acid-hydrolyzed starch, sorghum starch was pretreated with EBI (2, 4, and 8 kGy) and further hydrolyzed using hydrochloric acid (1 % and 6 % concentrations) in this study. EBI intensified acid hydrolysis corrosion on starch granule surfaces without inducing changes in the growth ring, FT-IR spectra, and crystal type (A-type). Also, EBI promoted starch degradation by acid hydrolysis, as evidenced by the R1047/1022 loss (1.071 to 1.027), the molecular weight decrease, and the chain length distribution shift (toward short A-chain). Moreover, this synergistic modification induced a starch enthalpy decrease (only 9.49 J/g) and crystallinity reduction (29.87 %), while solubility increase (34.27 %) and swelling power inhibition (only 7.65 g/g) were observed. Notably, starch digestibility was improved after synergistic modification. The obtained results broaden the processing depth of EBI in modified starch and highlight the promising application of acidolysis sorghum starch as a potential industrial starch.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of radio frequency air cold plasma (RFACP) pretreatment on the multi-scale structures, physicochemical properties, enzymatic hydrolysis, and hydroxypropylation of tapioca starch. The results showed that cold plasma (CP) made starch granules rough on the surface and disrupted long- and short-range ordered structures, reducing relative crystallinity from 43.8 % to 37.4 % and R1047/1022 value from 0.992 to 0.934. Meanwhile, the starch molecules were depolymerized and oxidized by CP, reducing weight-average molecular weight from 9.64 × 107 to 2.17 × 107 g/mol, while increasing carbonyl and carboxyl groups by up to 118 % and 53 %. Additionally, CP-treated starches exhibited higher solubility and swelling power, along with lower gelatinization enthalpy. Short-time CP pretreatment (10 min) promoted the hydroxypropylation of starch and increased the molar substitution (0.081-0.112). Also, CP pretreatment accelerated enzymatic hydrolysis of starch, as indicated by the increase in hydrolysis rate (1.846 × 10-3-2.033 × 10-3 min-1) and degree of hydrolysis (51.45 % - 59.92 %). Overall, the multi-scale structural disruption induced by CP treatment facilitated the accessibility of enzymes/chemical reagents into starch granules and glucan chains. This study suggested that RFACP could be used for starch pretreatment to increase production efficiency in modified starch production, as well as in brewing and fermentation industries.

Abstract
Corona treatment (CT), a surface treatment widely used in the plastic industry, can be used to alter the properties of cassava starch. In the present work, CT was performed on dry granular starch (DS), water-suspended humid granular starch (HS), and gelatinized starch (GS). Different properties and structural characteristics of treated starches were studied. A lowering in pH was generally observed after CT and the rheological properties depended on the starch presentation. A reinforcement of DS and HS samples after CT was deduced from higher viscosity values in flow assays and viscoelastic moduli, but weak gels were obtained when CT was applied to GS. Changes in the A-type polymorphic structure, as well as a drop in relative crystallinity, were produced by CT for DS and HS. Additionally, changes in O-H and C-O-C FTIR bands were observed. Therefore, CT can be applied for starch modification, producing predominantly cross-linking in the DS and de-polymerization in the HS. Casting films made from the modified DS showed higher tensile strength and lower hydrophilicity, solubility, water absorption capacity, and water vapor permeability. Thus, the DS cross-linking induced by CT improved mechanical characteristics and hydrophobicity in edible films, which can be better used as packaging materials.

Abstract
The comprehensive understanding of multi-scale structure of starch and how the structure regulates the pasting/digestion properties remain unclear. This work investigated the effects of γ-ray irradiation with different doses on multi-scale structure and pasting/digestion properties of potato starch. Results indicated that γ-ray at lower doses (<20 kGy) had little effect on micromorphology of starch, increased mainly the amylose content and the thickness of amorphous region while decreased crystallinity, double helix content and lamellar ordering. With the increase of dose, the internal structure of large granules was destroyed, resulting in the depolymerization of starch to form more short-chains and to reduce molecular weight. Meanwhile, amylose content decreased due to the depolymerization of amylose. The enhanced double helix content, crystallinity, lamellar ordering and structural compactness manifested the formation of the thicker and denser starch structure. These structure changes resulted in the decreased viscosity, the increased stability and anti- digestibility of paste.

Effect of high voltage dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) atmospheric cold plasma treatment on physicochemical and functional properties of taro (Colocasia esculenta) starch. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:126772. [PMID: 37683744 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126772] [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: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
The goal of the proposed study is to investigate the effects of three different power levels (30, 32 and 34 kV) and exposure time (2, 4 and 8 min) of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) atmospheric cold plasma treatment on the functional and physicochemical characteristics of taro starch. Investigations were done into how different treatments impact the multi-structural, functional and physicochemical attributes of taro starch. The findings showed that cold plasma treatments substantially impacted starch granule shapes (3.60-2.54 μm), such as reduced aggregations and developed fissures on granule surface due to the generation of an etching by plasma species and enhancement in the surface topography and roughness of treated starch as compared with native by SEM and AFM analysis. Besides this, no variations were detected in the functional groups of taro starch using FT-IR analysis after cold plasma treatments. However, the A-type pattern in the XRD did not affect it, while a reduction in relative crystallinity (14.20-11.50 %) was seen as a function of the active plasma species depolymerization. Furthermore, depending on the cold plasma voltage and treatment time, amylose content (20.12-15.98 %), paste clarity (24.48-31.27 %), solubility (0.41-65.53 %), freezing thaw stability (% syneresis) (32.10-42.58 %), color properties (L*, 94.79-97.52), whiteness index (79.37-84.66), molecular weight distribution (Peak 1, 12.79-5.35 × 108 g/mol; Peak 2, 4.20-1.56 × 107 g/mol) and in vitro digestibility (RDS, 64.10-64.08 %) significantly changed. So, based on these excellent properties, this study suggested that cold plasm-treated taro starch can be used in the field of food packaging material, functional food and pharmaceutical products. Therefore, a potential approach for physically altering starch is plasma treatment.

Abstract
Non-thermal dielectric barrier discharge plasma (DBDP) and four thermal treatments, including baking (BT), high pressure cooking (HPC), radio frequency (RF) and microwave (MW) were applied to modify the structural and physicochemical properties of Cyperus esculentus starch (CES). The results showed that the thermal treatments remarkably disordered the crystalline structures of CES through weakening the double-helix conformation of amylopectin, while DBDP caused much more gentle influence on the starch structures than them. Specifically, MW induced the high-frequency displacement of polar molecules and intensive collisions between starch and water molecules, causing the largest stretching and swelling extents of amylopectin, resulting in the highest pasting and rheological viscosity of CES in four thermal treatments. As DBDP did not favor the aggregation of amylopectin chains, the deaggregated starch chains promoted the hydration effects with water molecules, boosting the final pasting viscosity, apparent rheological viscosity, freeze-thaw stability and digestion velocity of CES. Besides, the gelatinization-retrogradation process in the thermal treatments regulated starch digestion velocity and produced type III resistant starch in CES. Conclusively, the modified physicochemical properties of CES resulted from the altered molecular structures of starch by the applied treatments.

Abstract
Swelling behavior involves the process of starch granules absorbing enough water to swell and increase the viscosity of starch suspension under hydrothermal conditions, making it one of the important aspects in starch research. The changes that starch granules undergo during the swelling process are important factors in predicting their functional properties in food processing. However, the factors that affect starch swelling and how swelling, in turn, affects the texture and digestion characteristics of starch-based foods have not been systematically summarized. Compared to its long chains, the short chains of amylose easily interact with amylopectin chains to inhibit starch swelling. Generally, reducing the swelling of starch could increase the strength of the gel while limiting the accessibility of digestive enzymes to starch chains, resulting in a reduction in starch digestibility. This article aims to conduct a comprehensive review of the mechanism of starch swelling, its influencing factors, and the relationship between swelling and the pasting, gelling, and digestion characteristics of starch. The role of starch swelling in the edible quality and nutritional characteristics of starch-based foods is also discussed, and future research directions for starch swelling are proposed.

Abstract
To investigate the influence of surface gelatinization on cold plasma (CP) modification of starch, this study used CaCl2 to modify maize starch by surface gelatinization, further combined with CP treatment and characterized its multi-scale structure and physicochemical properties. The results revealed that starch surface gelatinization causes roughness and fragmentation on the granule surface, and CP undergoes etching effects. The synergistic modification promotes starch degradation, as evidenced by molecular weight decrease and short-chain ratio increase. Although the growth rings, FT-IR patterns, and crystal types of starch remained unchanged, the synergistic modification induced a reduction in the short-range orderliness and crystallinity of starch, thus causing a decrease in the pasting properties and contributing to its solubility. Notably, the CP treatment improved the RDS and SDS contents of the gelatinized starch due to more active sites on the granule surface after gelatinization, and this finding may provide insight into the deep processing of starch.

Abstract
The development of a healthier and more sustainable food supply is a main concern of consumers, industry, governments, and international institutions. Foods containing high levels of rapidly digestible starches have been linked to a rise in the number of people suffering from diet-related chronic diseases. Consequently, there is interest in reducing the digestibility of starch to improve their healthiness. The ability of natural additives including proteins, dietary fibers, and polyphenols, and sustainable processing technologies such as high-intensity ultrasonic, pulsed electric field, non-thermal plasma, γ-ray irradiation that regulate reduce starch digestibility in foods are reviewed. The potential mechanisms of action, advantages, and disadvantages of each approach at inhibiting starch digestibility is highlighted. The potential for commercializing these technologies is discussed, and areas where further research are required are emphasized. Natural additives and sustainable processing operations can effectively reduce the digestibility of starch and inhibit postprandial sugar "spikes" in the bloodstream by adjusting the structural changes, which can be used to create healthier and more sustainable foods and have broad application prospects.

Abstract
This research investigated the impact of air plasma and high-pressure plasma treatments on corn starch. The resulting samples were characterized by particle morphology, molecular polymerization degree, molecular functional groups, and crystallinity. SEM analysis revealed that plasma treatment altered the surface morphology of corn starch, with variations observed depending on the duration of treatment. UV/Vis spectroscopy results indicated that longer plasma exposure times increased maximum absorbance values with less complete peak shapes. FTIR results demonstrated that plasma treatment disrupted the crystalline structure of starch, resulting in decreased molecular polymerization. Lastly, XRD results showed a proportional relationship between plasma treatment duration and the intensity of the diffuse peak, indicating that prolonged plasma exposure increased the amorphous nature of starch.

Abstract
Electron beam irradiation (EBI) is an environmentally friendly physical modification technology. In this study, pea starch nanocrystals (SNC) were prepared by EBI-assisted pretreatment, and investigated the effects of EBI on the multiscale structure and physicochemical properties of SNC. EBI-assisted pretreatment didn't change the particle morphology, crystalline type and FT-IR spectra of SNC. However, EBI-SNC's relative crystallinity and short-range orderliness index (R1047/1022) significantly increased with increasing irradiation dose (5 KGy-20 KGy). In addition, EBI-assisted pretreatment caused the long chains of SNC's amylopectin to break into short chains. Moreover, EBI-assisted treatment significantly reduced the mean size, molecular weight, apparent amylose content, swelling power and SDS + RS content of SNC, while increasing the solubility, zeta potential and RDS content. Furthermore, the flow properties of the EBI-SNC samples were increased. The results show that EBI effectively changed the structural and functional properties of SNC, and the excellent functional properties are expected to broaden the application range of SNC.

Abstract
Cold plasma (CP) is one of the novel non-thermal food processing technologies, which has the potential to extend the shelf-life of plant-based food products without adversely affecting the nutritional value and sensory characteristics. Besides microbial inactivation, this technology has been explored for food functionality, pesticide control, and allergen removals. Cold plasma technology presents positive results in applications related to food processing at a laboratory scale. This review discusses applications of CP technology and its effect on the constituents of plant-based food products including proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and polar and non-polar secondary plant metabolites. As proven by the publications in the food field, the influence of CP on the food constituents and sensory quality of various food materials are mainly based on CP-related factors such as processing time, voltage level, power, frequency, type of gas, gas flow rate as well as the amount of sample, type, and content of food constituents. In addition to these, changes in the secondary plant metabolites depend on the action of CP on both cell membrane breakdown and increase/decrease in the scavenging compounds. This technology offers a good alternative to conventional methods by inactivating enzymes and increasing antioxidant levels. With a waterless and chemical-free property, this sustainable and energy-efficient technology presents several advantages in food applications. However, scaling up CP by ensuring uniform plasma treatment is a major challenge. Further investigation is required to provide information regarding the toxicity of plasma-treated food products.

Spotlight on the Multiscale Structural and Physicochemical Properties of Red Adzuki Bean Starch through Partial Amylose Removal Combined with Hydrochloric Acid. Foods 2023; 12:3366. [PMID: 37761075 PMCID: PMC10527772 DOI: 10.3390/foods12183366] [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: 07/22/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
To explore the effect of amylose within starch granules on the efficiency of starch hydrolysis by acid, we chose the warm water extraction method to treat red adzuki bean starch to obtain different degrees of amylose removal granule models and to prepare samples in combination with acid hydrolysis. The amylose content was reduced after acid hydrolysis, reducing the peak viscosity (2599-1049 cP), while the solubility was significantly increased. In contrast, the short-chain content of the deamylose-acid hydrolysis samples was reduced considerably, exacerbating the trend towards reduced starch orderliness and increased solubility. This work reveals the granular structure of starch from the point of view of deamylose and contributes to a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of acid hydrolysis. It might add to knowledge in starch science research and industrial applications for the acid processing of starch-based foods, particularly with regard to the most important factors controlling the structure and function of starch.

Abstract
High activity of lipoxygenase (LOX) has been identified as a primary cause of oxidative rancidity in legumes. In this study, the application of dielectric barrier discharge atmospheric cold plasma (DBD-ACP) (5 W, 10 min) resulted in an obvious decrease in LOX activity in mung bean (MB), kidney bean (KB), and adzuki bean (AB) flours by 36.96%, 32.49%, and 28.57%, respectively. Moreover, DBD-ACP induced significant increases (p < 0.05) in content of soluble dietary fiber, saturated fatty acids, and methionine. The starch digestibility of legumes was changed, evidenced by increased (p < 0.05) slowly digestible starch and rapidly digestible starch, while resistant starch decreased. Furthermore, DBD-ACP treatment significantly affected (p < 0.05) the hydration and thermal characteristics of legume flours, evidenced by the increased water absorption index (WAI) and gelatinization temperature, and the decreased swelling power (SP) and gelatinization enthalpy (ΔH). Microscopic observations confirmed that DBD-ACP treatment caused particle aggregation.

Abstract
The hierarchical architecture of natural and processed starches with different surface and internal structures determines their final physicochemical properties. However, the oriented control of starch structure presents a significant challenge, and non-thermal plasma (cold plasma, CP) has gradually been used to design and tailor starch macromolecules, though without clear illustration. In this review, the multi-scale structure (i.e., chain-length distribution, crystal structure, lamellar structure, and particle surface) of starch is summarized by CP treatment. The plasma type, mode, medium gas and mechanism are also illustrated, as well as their sustainable food applications, such as in food taste, safety, and packaging. The effects of CP on the chain-length distribution, lamellar structure, amorphous zone, and particle surface/core of starch includes irregularity due to the complex of CP types, action modes, and reactive conditions. CP-induced chain breaks lead to short-chain distributions in starch, but this rule is no longer useful when CP is combined with other physical treatments. The degree but not type of starch crystals is indirectly influenced by CP through attacking the amorphous region. Furthermore, the CP-induced surface corrosion and channel disintegration of starch cause changes in functional properties for starch-related applications.

Abstract
The present study was done to analyze the effect of atmospheric pressure non-thermal pin-to-plate plasma at a range of different voltages (170, 200, and 230V) at different time intervals (10, 20, and 30 mins) on under-utilized pearl millet starch. The untreated and treated starches were analyzed for amylose content, pH, carbonyl, and carboxyl group, reducing sugar, turbidity, water, and oil binding property, pasting property, DSC, FTIR, XRD, and molecular weight. As cold plasma contains highly reactive species and free radicals, it is expected to cause noticeable modifications in the attributes of treated starch. There has been a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in turbidity value by 38.97% and pH value of starch from 6.49 to 4.05. Plasma-treated samples produced clearer pastes with higher stability over storage time. Cold plasma treatment also led to an increase in the ζ potential. However, there has been no significant change in the water activity and oil-binding capacity of the starch. Reducing sugar content, average molecular weight, degree of polymerization, pasting property, XRD, and FTIR data confirmed that cross-linking takes place in samples treated at lower voltages and lesser time followed by depolymerization occurring in harshly treated plasma samples. The study thus points out the possible use of cold plasma for starch modification to produce starches with altered properties.

Abstract
Wheat A- starch was subjected to single and combined CaCl2 and annealing (ANN) treatments. The influence of the treatment on wheat A- starch's structural, rheological, pasting, and digestive characteristics were studied. The results indicated that the application of CaCl2 treatment caused the removal of the outer layer of wheat A-starch, disrupted the integrity of the growth ring structure, and lowered the molecular weight of amylopectin and relative crystallinity. Meanwhile, the application of outshell removal combined with ANN treatment led to significant damage to the starch granules, resulting in a marked reduction in relative crystallinity, as well as the molecular weight of amylopectin and amylose. However, no changes were found in the non-Newtonian pseudoplastic behavior of starch after single or combined treatments. Furthermore, the combination of outshell removal and annealing treatment resulted in a decreased peak viscosity as well as trough viscosity of starch. Moreover, long-time ANN treatment had the potential to improve the resistant starch (RS) content of deshell starch.

Abstract
As a physical method for starch modification, dry heating treatment (DHT) at high temperatures (150 and 180°C, respectively) was applied to blue highland barley (BH) starch with different durations (2 and 4 h). The effects on its multi-structures, physicochemical properties, and in vitro digestibility were investigated. The results showed that DHT had changed the morphology of BH starch, and the diffraction pattern remained an "A"-type crystalline structure. However, with an extension of DHT temperature and time, the amylose content, gelatinization temperature, enthalpy value, swelling power, and pasting viscosity of modified starches decreased, while the light transmittance, solubility, and water and oil absorption capacities increased. Additionally, compared with native starch, the content of rapidly digestible starch in modified samples increased after DHT, whereas those of slowly digestible starch and RS decreased. Based on these results, the conclusion could be drawn that DHT is an effective and green way to transform multi-structures, physicochemical properties, and in vitro digestibility of BH starch. This fundamental information might be meaningful to enrich the theoretical basis of physical modification on BH starch and extend the applications of BH in the food industry.

Abstract
In order to provide a reference for improving the physicochemical properties of starch, the study of starch polyphenol complex interaction has aroused considerable interest. As a common method of starch modification, ultrasound can make starch granules have voids and cracks, and make starch and polyphenols combine more closely. In this research, canistel seed starch was modified by ultrasonic treatment alone or combined with quercetin. The molecular structure, particle characteristics and properties of starch were evaluated. With the increase of ultrasonic temperature, the particle size of the dextrinized starch granules increased, but the addition of quercetin could protect the destruction of starch granule size by ultrasonic; X-ray diffraction and infrared spectra indicated that quercetin was bound to the surface of canistel seed starch through hydrogen bonding, and the complex and the original starch had the same crystal structure and increased crystallinity; by molecular simulation, quercetin bound inside the starch molecular helix preserved the crystalline helical configuration of starch to some extent and inhibited the complete unhelicalization of starch molecules. Meanwhile, hydrogen bonding was the main driving force for the binding of starch molecules to quercetin, and van der Waals interactions also promoted the binding of both. In the physicochemical properties, as the temperature increased after the combination of ultrasonic modified starch combined with quercetin, the solubility, swelling force and apparent viscosity of the compound increased significantly, and it has higher stability and shear resistance.

Abstract
Electron beam (particle radiation) and X-ray (electromagnetic radiation) without radioisotope in the application of material modification have received increasing attention in the last decade. To clarify the effect of electron beam and X-ray on the morphology, crystalline structure and functional properties of starch, potato starch was irradiated using electron beam and X-ray at 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 kGy, respectively. Electron beam and X-ray treatment increased the amylose content of starch. The surface morphology of starch did not change at lower doses (< 5 kGy), but starch granules were aggregated with the increase of doses. All treatments decreased crystallinity, viscosity and swelling power but increased solubility and stability properties. The effects of electron beam and X-ray on the starch had a similar trend. Unlike X-ray, electron beam destructed the crystallinity of starch to a lesser extent, thereby increasing thermal stability and freeze-thaw stability. Furthermore, X-ray irradiation at higher doses (> 10 kGy) resulted in outstanding anti-retrogradation properties of starch compared with electron beam treatment. Thus, particle and electromagnetic irradiation displayed an excellent ability to modify starch with respective specific characteristics, which expands the potential application of these irradiations in the starch industry.

Abstract
A starch-rich portion is produced as a by-product of black Tartary buckwheat processing. The effect of enzymatic combined with autoclaving-cooling cycles (one, two, or three times) on the physicochemical and structural properties of black Tartary buckwheat type 3 resistant starch (BRS) was evaluated. The autoclaving-cooling cycles enhanced solubility and reduced swelling, with the BRS content increasing from 14.12% to 25.18%. The high crystallinity of the BRS reflected a high molecular order. However, increasing the number of autoclaving-cooling cycles did not result in higher BRS content. The highest BRS yield in the autoclaved starch samples was 25.18% after double-autoclaving-cooling cycles. Furthermore, the autoclaving-cooling cycles altered the crystalline structure of black Tartary buckwheat, and the subsequent crystallinity changed from 36.33% to 42.05% to 38.27%. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy shows that the number of cycles results in more efficient double-helical packing within the crystalline lamella. Principal component analysis showed that the autoclaving-cooling cycle treatment leads to significant changes in the molecular structure of resistant starch (RS). These results indicated that autoclaving-cooling cycles might be a feasible way for producing RS from black Tartary buckwheat starch with better structural stability to expand their application range.

Food Res Int 2023; 163:112155. [PMID: 36596106 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.112155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Inhibiting carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes has been considered as an effective approach for controlling starch digestion and postprandial blood glucose level. α-Amylase and amyloglucosidase (AMG) are commonly applied in analysis of starch digestion behaviour. Catechins have been shown with the inhibiting effects on α-amylase. However, the inhibitory activity of catechins against AMG needs to be further studied. Therefore, AMG inhibition of 8 catechins and the mechanisms were studied in this work through substrate depletion, inhibition kinetics, molecular docking, fluorescence quenching, differential scanning calorimetry, and isothermal titration calorimetry. The inhibitory activity of catechins with galloyl moiety (CGMs) was found to be lower than the corresponding catechins without the moiety (Cs). All catechins were anti-competitive inhibitors, indicating that they tended to bind with AMG-starch complex in the digestion system, rather than with AMG directly. Interestingly, CGMs had higher quenching effects on AMG fluorescence than Cs, due to the additional π-stacking between aromatic rings of GM and AMG fluorophores. Also, CGMs had a higher binding affinity to AMG, due to the tendency of GM to AMG active site, although the affinity was much weaker than that of starch to AMG. Besides, catechins did not affect AMG thermostability. Therefore, there was an inconsistency between catechins-AMG binding interactions and the enzyme inhibition because the predominant sites for catechins binding were the non-active sites on AMG-starch complex, rather than the enzyme active ones. Conclusively, inhibition mode should also be considered when evaluating the inhibitory activity of a polyphenol based on the polyphenol-enzyme binding affinity.

Abstract
The combined effect of cold plasma treatment and enzymatic hydrolysis was investigated on the physicochemical and microstructural properties of porous corn starch. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images depicted that the combined treatment led to the creation of deeper pores on the surface of starch granules. The combined treatment indicated the highest swelling power (19.49 g/g), solubility (10.08 %), specific surface area (2.97 m2/g) and total pore volume (10.47 cm3/g). According to the X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), the combined treatment, compared with the enzymatic hydrolysis, decreased the starch crystallinity, the order of the double-helix structure, and the starch gelatinization enthalpy. The rapid visco analyzer (RVA) pasting profile revealed that the combined treatment elevated the breakdown and setback viscosities. This study indicated that cold plasma pretreatment, as a green non-thermal technology, facilitated the performance of enzymes, resulting in the production of a porous starch with a higher absorption capacity.

Abstract
Consumers are becoming increasingly conscious of adopting a healthy lifestyle and demanding food with high nutritional values. Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has attracted considerable attention and is consumed worldwide in the form of a variety of whole and processed products owing to its excellent nutritional features, including richness in micronutrients and bioactive phytochemicals, well-balanced amino acids composition, and gluten-free properties. Recent studies have indicated that the diverse utilization and final product quality of this pseudo-grain are closely related to the processing technologies used, which can result in variations in nutritional profiles and health benefits. This review comprehensively summarizes the nutritional properties, processing technologies, and potential health benefits of quinoa, suggesting that quinoa plays a promising role in enhancing the nutrition of processed food. In particular, the effects of different processing technologies on the nutritional profile and health benefits of quinoa are highlighted, which can provide a foundation for the updating and upgrading of the quinoa processing industry. It further discusses the present quinoa-based food products containing quinoa as partial or whole substitute for traditional grains.

Abstract
The trypsin inhibitor (TI) is one of the most important anti-nutritive elements in soybeans. As a new nonthermal technology, dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) cold plasma has attracted increasing attention in food processing. In this research, we investigated the effect of dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) plasma treatment on soybean trypsin inhibitor content and its structure, evaluated TI toxicity and the safety of its degradation products after treatment with DBD technology in vitro and in vivo, and applied the technology to soybean milk, which was analyzed for quality. Using the statistical analysis of Student’s t-test, the results demonstrated that DBD plasma treatment significantly decreased the content of TI (33.8 kV at 1, 3, or 5 min, p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001) and destroyed the secondary and tertiary structures of TI. TI was toxic to Caco-2 cells and could inhibit body weight gain, damage liver and kidney functions, and cause moderate or severe lesions in mouse organ tissues, whereas these phenomena were alleviated in mice treated with degradation products of TI after DBD plasma treatment under the optimal condition (33.8 kV at 5 min). The content of TI in DBD-treated soymilk was also significantly reduced (p < 0.001), while the acidity, alkalinity, conductivity, color, and amino acid composition of soymilk were not affected, and there were no statistical differences (p > 0.05). In summary, DBD plasma is a promising non-thermal processing technology used to eliminate TI from soybean products.

Abstract
Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) was prepared and used as wheat tempering water. This study explored the impacts of tempering with SAEW on microbial load and diversity and quality properties of wheat flour. As SAEW volume ratio increased, the residual level of total plate counts (TPC) and mould/yeast counts (MYC) decreased dramatically (p < 0.05). Based on genomics analysis, bacterial 16S rRNA gene and fungal ITS1 gene region were performed to characterize the changes in microbial communities’ composition and diversity in response to SAEW treatment. SAEW optimal volume ratio (6.5:10, v/v) of SAEW with distilled water influenced wheat microbiome composition, with a higher microbial diversity and abundance discovered on the control grains. Bacteroidetes of predominant bacterial phylum and Ascomycota of the most abundant fungal phylum were reduced after SAEW optimal volume ratio tempering. The flour yield is higher and ash content is lower than the control samples. Falling number and “b*” in terms of colour markedly increased. DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) test showed that To (onset temperature), Tp (peak temperature), and Tc (conclusion temperature) were significantly decreased in thermal characteristics of flour. Gluten content, protein content, ΔH and pasting properties tests showed no significant change. It can be concluded that SAEW should be applied on wheat tempering for producing clean wheat flour. ANOVA and Tukey’s honestly significant difference (HSD) test were used for the analysis of variance and differences between the experimental and control groups, with p < 0.05.

Abstract
Quinoa is an excellent source of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is a natural four-carbon non-protein amino acid with great health benefits. In this study, the quinoa was treated by cold stress before fermentation with Lactobacillus plantarum to enhance the amount of GABA. The best Lactobacillus plantarum for GABA production was selected from sixteen different strains based on the levels of GABA production and the activity of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD). Cold stress treatments at 4 °C and at -20 °C enhanced the amount of GABA in the fermented quinoa by a maximum of 1191% and 774%, respectively. The surface of the fermented quinoa flour treated by cold stress showed more pinholes, mucus, faults and cracks. A Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) analysis revealed that cold stress had a violent breakage effect on the -OH bonds in quinoa and delayed the destruction of protein during fermentation. In addition, the results from the rapid visco analyzer (RVA) showed that the cold stress reduced the peak viscosity of quinoa flour. Overall, the cold stress treatment is a promising method for making fermented quinoa a functional food by enhancing the production of bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Ultrasonic treatment combined with resveratrol modification was used to improve banana starch's solubility, thermal stability, and digestion resistance. The solubility and freeze-thaw stability of the modified starch complex significantly increased. The oil-absorption capacity increased by 20.52%, and the gelatinization temperatures increased from 64.10-73.92 °C to 70.77-75.83 °C. The storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G″) increased after ultrasound and resveratrol treatment, and the proportion of viscosity was increased after composition with resveratrol. Additionally, the in vitro digestibility decreased from 44.12% to 40.25%. The modified complexes had release-control ability for resveratrol. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy demonstrated that complex structures became more compact and organized, whereas crystalline patterns were unchanged. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the resveratrol modification caused physical change on the granular surface by creating pores and fissures. The findings can help develop antioxidant functional foods using banana starch.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cold plasma (CP) can be defined as partially or wholly ionized gas carrying myriads of highly reactive products, such as electrons, negative ions, positive ions, free radicals, excited or non-excited atoms, and photons at ambient temperature. It is generated at 30-60°C under atmospheric or reduced pressure (vacuum). In contrast to thermal plasma, it requires less power, exhibits electron temperatures much higher than the corresponding gas (macroscopic temperature), and does not present a local thermodynamic equilibrium. Dielectric barrier discharges (DBD) are one of the most convenient and efficient methods to produce CP. SCOPE AND APPROACH Cold plasma technology has the potential to replace traditional agri-food processing purification methods because of its low energy requirements and flexible system design. CP technology works by reducing bacteria levels and removing pests and mycotoxins from your produce at harvest. It can also catalyze physiological and biochemical reactions and modify materials. It can meet microbial food safety standards, improve the physical, nutritional, and sensory characteristics of the products, preserve unstable bioactive compounds, and modulate enzyme activities. This manuscript also discusses the quality characteristics of food components before/after CP treatment. KEY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION In the past decade, CP treatments of food products have experienced increased popularity due to their potential contributions to non-thermal food processing. There is no doubt that CP treatment is a flexible approach with demonstrated efficacy for controlling many risks across food and agricultural sustainability sectors. In addition, CP technologies also can be applied in food-related areas, including modification of chemical structures and desensitization treatments. There is a need to fully assess the benefits and risks of stand-alone CP unit processes or their integration as a processing chain as soon as the economic, ecological, and consumer benefits and acceptability are considered.

Abstract
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
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were produced from sweet potato starches by ultrasonic treatment combined with rapid nanoprecipitation. The starch concentration, ultrasonic time, and the ratio of starch solution to ethanol were optimized through dynamic light scattering (DLS) technique to obtain SNPs with a Z-average size of 64.51 ± 0.15 nm, poly dispersity index (PDI) of 0.23 ± 0.01. However, after freeze drying, the SNPs showed varying degrees of aggregation depending on the particle size of SNPs before freeze-drying. The smaller the particle size, the more serious the aggregation. Therefore, we tried to treat SNPs with dielectric barrier discharge cold plasma before freeze drying. Properties including morphological features, crystalline structure and apparent viscosity of various starches were measured by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and rheometer, respectively. The results showed that, after cold plasma (CP) treatment, the aggregation of SNPs during freeze drying was significantly inhibited. Compared to the native sweet potato starch, SNPs showed a higher relative crystallinity and a lower apparent viscosity. After CP treatment, the relative crystallinity of CP SNPs was further higher, and the apparent viscosity was lower. This work provides new ideas for the preparation of SNPs and could promote the development of sweet potato SNPs in the field of active ingredient delivery.
