Preparation and properties of RS III from waxy maize starch with pullulanase

Waxy maize starch was treated by pullulanase debranching and retrogradation at room temperature to produce resistant starch (RS). Physicochemical properties, crystalline structure and in-vitro digestibility of starch samples with different RS content were investigated. Compared with native starch, apparent amylose content of RS products increased. Based on Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) the Molecular Weight Distribution (MWD) of resistant starches significantly changed. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed that upon pullulanase debranching and retrogradation treatment the granular structure of native starch was destroyed and all RS samples exhibited irregular shaped fragments. Crystal structure of samples changed from A–type to a mixture of B and V–type. The crystallinity of resistant starch also improved as compared with native starch. Moreover, samples with higher resistant starch showed higher relative crystallinity. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) determination showed that To、Tp、Tc and ΔH all increased which was in agreement with RS content. The resistance of waxy maize starch with Pullulanase treatment to α-amylase digestibility also increased, while the in-vitro digestibility of products decreased.     

In vitro starch digestibility,expected glycemic index,and thermal and pasting properties of flours from pea,lentil and chickpea cultivars

In vitro starch digestibility, expected glycemic index (eGI), and thermal and pasting properties of flours from pea, lentil and chickpea grown in Canada under identical environmental conditions were investigated. The protein content and gelatinization transition temperatures of lentil flour were higher than those of pea and chickpea flours. Chickpea flour showed a lower amylose content (10.8–13.5%) but higher free lipid content (6.5–7.1%) and amylose–lipid complex melting enthalpy (0.7–0.8 J/g). Significant differences among cultivars within the same species were observed with respect to swelling power, gelatinization properties, pasting properties and in vitro starch digestibility, especially chickpea flour from desi (Myles) and kabuli type (FLIP 97-101C and 97-Indian2-11). Lentil flour was hydrolyzed more slowly and to a lesser extent than pea and chickpea flours. The amount of slowly digestible starch (SDS) in chickpea flour was the highest among the pulse flours, but the resistant starch (RS) content was the lowest. The eGI of lentil flour was the lowest among the pulse flours.     

杂粮原料对其挂面淀粉消化性的影响及内在因素研究

本文以五种杂粮粉为原料,通过体外模拟消化试验研究了杂粮原料对其挂面体外淀粉消化特性和估计血糖生成指数（eGI）的影响。结果表明：杂粮挂面的eGI值由高到低为：大麦>青稞>苦荞>燕麦>高粱。采用差示扫描量热仪、傅里叶红外光谱仪和X射线衍射仪等手段分析了杂粮挂面淀粉理化特性差异。高粱糊化温度和焓值显著高于其他杂粮（P<0.05）;燕麦和高粱挂面直链淀粉含量和淀粉相对结晶度较高,且具有较多短程有序结构和较强氢键强度。采用组分分离法探究了内源性酚类物质和脂肪对挂面消化特性的影响,内源性多酚和脂肪的脱除使面条淀粉消化率明显升高。该研究为开发低GI食品提供了参考依据。     

In vitro availability of starch in heat‐treated potatoes as related to genotype,weight and storage time

The objective of the study was to determine the influence of potato variety, weight and storage time after lifting on the glycaemic index (GI) and resistant starch (RS) content predicted from measurement of the rate and extent of in vitro starch hydrolysis, respectively. The potatoes were either boiled, or boiled and subjected to different heat‐cycling conditions selected to promote retrogradation of amylose or amylopectin, respectively. The hydrolysis indices (HI) and predicted GIs of all 19 potato products were high and fell within narrow ranges of 122–144 and 118–138, respectively. No correlation between average weight of the potato tuber and HI was found. Furthermore, there was no difference in HI between potatoes stored for 1–3 or 8–10 months, nor between varieties of new potato and winter potato. However, the HI was significantly lowered by temperature cycling at conditions known to promote retrogradation of amylopectin (6 °C, 48 h) compared with 6 °C for 24 h followed by 70 °C for 24 h. RS content was already substantial in boiled potatoes, 4.5 g 100 g^?1 (starch basis), and could be increased further by temperature cycling, the highest yield obtained, 9.8 g 100 g^?1 (starch basis), following heat treatment at 6 °C for 24 h followed by 70 °C for 24 h; that is at conditions known to favour amylose retrogradation.

Potato flour as a functional ingredient in bread: evaluation of bread quality and starch characteristics

Potatoes have been added to bread for improvement of texture and moisture retention. The functional quality and starch digestibility in bread containing 5%, 10% or 15% potato flour were evaluated. Farinograph absorption of wheat and potato flour blends ranged from 59.0% to 77.7%. Bread with potato flour had significantly (P < 0.05) lower bread firmness during storage. There was a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in starch molecular weight as the level of potato flour increased. Inclusion of potato flour in these breads significantly (P < 0.05) increased the level of resistant starch (RS), while significantly (P < 0.05) decreasing the estimated glycemic index (eGI). Bread with no potato flour had 5.2% RS and an eGI of 95, while the bread with 15% potato flour had 11.3% RS and an eGI of 87. Overall, the addition of potato flour may reduce dough strength and loaf volume, but it reduced staling and increased resistant starch content of the bread.     

Effect of processing on potato starch: in vitro availability and glycaemic index

The content of digestible starch (DS) and resistant starch (RS) in processed potatoes was assessed. In addition, the effect of domestic cooking on the in vitro digestibility of starch in this tuber, which may influence the glycaemic response, was studied. Resistant starch in raw potato is high, however different RS values were obtained when processed, ranging from 1.18% in boiled potatoes to 10.38% in retrograded flour. In general, cooked potatoes have high levels of DS. Starch digestibility is improved after processing and it is affected by the cooking methods. Boiled and mashed potatoes showed the highest rate of digestion, on the contrary raw potato was hardly digested. The estimated Glycaemic Index (GI) from the degree of starch hydrolysis within 90 min was in accordance with the reported GI values, for potatoes processed in the same way.     

蛋白质、脂肪对豆类理化特性及体外消化特性的影响

以鹰嘴豆、花芸豆为原料,制备了脱脂豆类粉、脱蛋白豆类粉及豆类淀粉;研究了天然蛋白质、脂肪对豆类粉理化特性、体外淀粉消化速率及估计血糖生成指数的影响。经不同处理后,样品在化学组成、溶解度、糊化特性等方面均有显著差异,尤以豆类粉和豆类淀粉之间的差异最为显著。试验结果表明豆类粉的淀粉水解速率低于脱脂豆类粉、脱蛋白豆类粉和豆类淀粉,蛋白质含量、蛋白质/淀粉与估计血糖生成指数(eGI)呈极显著负相关,脂肪含量、脂肪/淀粉与eGI无显著相关性。     

Effect of gelatinisation on slowly digestible starch and resistant starch of heat-moisture treated and chemically modified canna starches

The effects of gelatinisation on slowly digestible (SDS) and resistant starch (RS) of native and modified canna starches were investigated. Starch slurries (10% w/w) were gelatinised at 100 °C for 5, 10, 20 and 40 min using a rapid visco analyzer (RVA). Significant change in the degree of gelatinisation (DG) values of all starch samples was observed during the initial 10 min of gelatinisation; after that the DG values increased gradually with gelatinisation time. The RS contents in all gelatinised starches decreased with increasing gelatinisation time, while the SDS values fluctuated. Chemical modification affected DG values as well as RS/SDS contents. The RS contents in 10% (w/w) acetylated, hydroxypropylated, octenyl succinylated and cross-linked canna starches gelatinised at 100 °C for 40 min were 26.6%, 32.0%, 45.3% and 19.8%, respectively, which were higher than that of the native starch (12.4%). Canna starch modified by crosslinking had the highest SDS content when gelatinised for 20-40 min. Modification of canna starch by heat-moisture treatment resulted in a lower content of RS for all treated samples. However, the Vt-HMT25 (canna starch containing moisture content of 25% during heat treatment) when gelatinised for 5-20 min contained a higher amount of SDS, compared to unmodified starch. The most effective modification method for RS and SDS formation was octenyl succinylation, where the sum of RS and SDS approached that of Novelose260.     

Physicochemical properties,resistant starch content and enzymatic digestibility of unripe banana,edible canna,taro flours and their rice noodle products

Unripe banana, edible canna and taro flours, which have been reported to contain significant amounts of fibre, were investigated for their physicochemical properties, resistant starch (RS) content and in vitro starch digestibility, and compared with commercial high‐fibre‐modified starches from corn and tapioca. Differential scanning calorimetry showed a single endothermic peak located around 70–83 °C for the samples except the modified starches, which exhibited no transition enthalpy. The samples showed different pasting behaviours in the Rapid Visco‐Analyser (RVA) ranging from full to restricted swelling. The RS content varied from 1–26 g per 100 g dry sample, and the estimated glycaemic indices (GIs) of the samples were from 67% to 99%. Generally, samples with high RS were low in GI values. The starches produced acceptable rice noodles but with reduced rate of starch digestion and GI. The effects of the unripe banana, edible canna and taro flours on starch digestibility were either comparable or better than the commercial modified starches. These flours can substitute commercial modified starches to lower GIs of noodles and identical foods.     

Reducing the glycaemic index and increasing the slowly digestible starch content in gluten‐free cereal‐based foods: a review

Commercially available gluten‐free (GF) cereal‐based foods are generally characterised by a lower nutritional quality than their gluten‐containing counterparts, relatively lower resistant starch (RS) content, along with higher glycaemic index (GI) often being reported. To overcome this nutritional imbalance, extensive research has been conducted to investigate the preparation of a new generation of staple GF products. This review reported the main strategies currently adopted in GF cereal‐based food recipes to formulate products with overall slowly digestible starch properties. They are mainly obtained by the utilisation of alternative ingredients to be incorporated into standard food formulation (including native starch and GF flours) or by technological treatments that may contribute to impact starch digestibility. Considering data from in vitro digestion trials, indications suggested that, aiming to obtain a RS content of about 5% (dry weight) and lowering the in vitro GI values, the minimum high amylose starch (amylose >60%) replacement level in GF bread and cookie formulations should be in the order of 20% by weight of total flours. Overall, with respect to un‐substituted GF foods, two‐ to three‐times higher RS contents, along with a parallel in vitro GI decrease (up to ?50%), were obtained for GF pasta and ready‐to‐eat snacks enriched with legume flours at inclusion levels from 40% to 100% by weight of total flours. The use of flours from pseudocereals (e.g., quinoa, amaranth and buckwheat) with and without sourdough did not always guarantee favourably slowly digestible starch GF foods.     

Effect of β-cyclodextrin addition on quality of precooked vacuum packed potatoes

The usefulness of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) in enhancing the food and nutritional quality of precooked potatoes was studied. After blanching, potato slices (Solanum tuberosum var. Agata) were cooled. This was followed by dipping in solutions containing β-CD, ascorbic and citric acids, either alone or in combination with β-CD, and vacuum packaging in pouches. The potatoes were pasteurised/precooked and cooled. These samples were then analyzed for colour parameters, microbial count, Resistant Starch (RS) concentration, fat content after a frying test immediately and after 7, 14 and 28 days of storage at 4 °C. Results showed that dipping with β-CD gave the lightest colour (ΔL*) and a more attractive appearance. However, growth of aerobic mesophilic bacteria was observed in samples dipping in solutions with β-CD alone. From the nutritional point of view, the effect of β-CD on the RS content of potatoes may be related to storage time.     

Physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility of resistant starch from mung bean (Phaseolus radiatus) starch

RS from mung bean starch was prepared by autoclaving, pullulanase debranching, and retrogradation. Physicochemical properties, crystalline structure, and in vitro digestibility of selected RS samples with different RS content were investigated. Compared to native starch, AAM content of RS increased but MW decreased greatly. SEM clearly showed RS samples exhibited irregular shaped fragments with compact structure. XRD pattern indicated that RS samples had typical B‐type pattern with sharp peaks at 17.0°, 22.2°, and 23.9° 2θ. The relative crystallinity, gelatinization temperatures, and enthalpy increased with increasing RS content. The α‐amylase digestibility of RS was lower than that of native starch. The results suggested that the decrease in enzymatic digestion of RS might due to compact and ordered crystalline structures after debranching and recrystallization.     

Resistant Starch‐rich Powders Prepared by Autoclaving of Native and Lintnerized Banana Starch: Partial Characterization

Powdered preparations enriched in resistant starch (RS) were obtained from native and lintnerized (prolonged acid treatment) banana starches by consecutive autoclaving/cooling treatments. The preparations were tested for indigestible starch content, swelling and solubility properties, thermal analysis and pasting profile. The autoclaved samples had higher RS content than their parental counterparts, but the chemical modification (lintnerization process) allowed development of higher RS proportions (19%, dry matter basis, dmb). The autoclaved samples (RS‐enriched products) showed similar swelling values (α = 0.05) at the temperatures assessed. These RS‐rich products exhibited a lower solubility in water than the corresponding raw materials. The peak temperatures of the thermal transition were 155.5 and 145.8°C for native autoclaved and lintnerized autoclaved starch, respectively. These values indicate that RS products have a marked thermal stability. The pasting behavior of the RS products was less pronounced than that of the raw counterparts. Hence, their potential use as processed food ingredients should not impact final product viscosity. These RS‐enriched products appear suitable for the formulation of functional foods.     

Influence of heating conditions and starch on the storage modulus of Russet Burbank and Yukon Gold potatoes

The storage modulus of Russet Burbank (RB) and Yukon Gold (YG) potato discs (13.3 mm × 4.5 mm) was measured continuously during heating in water at temperatures ranging from 40 to 80 °C for 120 min using a dynamic mechanical analyser with a heating stage. The starch content of YG potatoes was higher than that of RB potatoes, but the raw starch granule size distribution of both varieties was similar. RB samples had the highest storage modulus values (25% higher than raw tissue) when heated in 60 °C water for 35 min. Image analysis revealed that the perimeters of starch granules in the potato samples increased by about 50% during heating for 30 min at 60 °C. Heating temperature and time and starch content influenced the storage modulus. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry

Some physical and nutritional characteristics of genetically modified potatoes varying in amylose/amylopectin ratios

Transgenically modified potatoes with a large spread in amylose/amylopectin ratios were analysed both as tubers and in the form of isolated starch. Different microscopic techniques were used to study starch granules and tuber tissue. Starch gelatinisation properties and recrystallisation of amylopectin and amylose were studied by differential scanning calorimetry. Starch bioavailability and resistant starch (RS) were evaluated using enzymatic in vitro procedures. Glycaemic indices (GI) were predicted from low molecular weight carbohydrates (LMWC) contents and the in vitro hydrolysis rate of the starch moiety. For many of the examined parameters, differences of varying magnitude were found between the potato lines, especially for high amylose lines. High amylose starch granules had irregular shapes and showed only a limited swelling. Moreover, contents of RS and recrystallised amylose were elevated. GI’s for the starch moiety were reduced, though elevated contents of LMWC caused a high over-all predicted GI.

Correlation of physicochemical and nutritional properties of dry matter and starch in potatoes grown in different locations

The physicochemical and nutritional properties of dry matter and starches were studied from 13 potato varieties grown in different locations in Canada. Pearson correlation and principal component analysis were employed to examine relationships amongst variables. Phosphorus content in starch was negatively correlated to rapidly and slowly digestible starch content, while positively correlated to resistant starch content (RS) in raw dry matter and raw starch (p < 0.001). RS content of cooked starch was positively correlated to phosphorus content (0.48, p < 0.01), enthalpy of retrograded starch (0.48, p < 0.01), peak viscosity (0.52, p < 0.001) and breakdown of starch (0.43, p < 0.01). The principal component analysis grouped the 13 potato varieties by growing location, where phosphorus content in starch was the major difference. The results would imply that phosphorus content of starch was a key factor affecting physicochemical and nutritional properties of dry matter and starch in potatoes.
