Effect of Water Content on the Gelatinization of Wheat Starch

The influence of water content on the gelatinization of wheat starch was examined by differential scanning calorimetry. Three endothermic transitions were observed when starch was heated to 140 °C with 35 to 80% (w/w) water. The temperature of the second and third endotherms and the enthalpies of the first and second endotherms vary with water content.     

On Water in Potato Starch

Thermal analysis (TG and DTA) was carried out on potato starch dried in the air at room temperature as well as at 130°C, and also on that dried azeotropically with benzene. Water present in the matrix of potato starch influences the whole pathway of dextrinization up to at least 300°C. The mode of removal of water from air-dried starch also subtly changes the route of thermal decomposition of starch and magnitudes of thermal effects. The role of atmospheric oxygen in thermolysis is also documented.

The Effect of Phosphoric Acid Bound with Potato Starch on Its Starch Gelatinization

A series of potato starch substituted with proton, potassium and calcium ion were prepared with washing method by hydrogen chloride solution, and their properties were compared with that of native starch on viscograph. After viscograph test, these samples were subjected to gel chromatography and compared with that of non-test samples. It was proved by GPC pattern analysis that with the starch substituted with proton some extent of hydrolysis took place during viscographic measurement process. The role of phosphoric acid bound with starch in this hydrolysis was discussed in relation to its content, locus and distribution in the amylopectin molecule.

The Effect of Solutes on the Gelatinization Temperature Range of Potato Starch

The gelatinization behaviour of potato starch in an excess of water or solutions of sugars, other organic hydroxy compounds, or various inorganic salts was studied. The distribution of water and solutes between the external phase and the starch granules was measured by refractometry and a dye exclusion technique. When the limited water uptake of native starch granules is taken into account, the cooperative nature of gelatinization and the effect of water content on gelatinization behaviour can be explained solely on the basis of the Flory theory of polymer melting. Following the same argument, the effect of many solutes can be approximately described by the derived relationship between initial gelatinization temperature, water activity of the system and volume fraction of water in the granules.

Effect of Citric Acid on Potato Starch Gelatinization

Coexistent effects of citric acid and acetic acid on gelatinization of potato starch and corn starch are discussed and some difference was found in citric acid but not in acetic acid on potato starch, although any difference was not found between both acids on corn starch. The amylogram of potato starch with EDTA treatment and CaCl₂ treatment supports a presumption that removal of calcium ions bound to phosphate in the starch with citric acid should be responsible to the above acid effect.     

盐对马铃薯淀粉及马铃薯淀粉-黄原胶复配体系特性的影响

研究不同种类以及不同浓度的盐对马铃薯淀粉以及马铃薯淀粉-黄原胶复配体系糊化性质以及流变学性质的影响。结果表明：盐的加入均增加了马铃薯淀粉的成糊温度和回值,降低了峰值黏度、终值黏度和崩解值,且马铃薯淀粉糊的黏度值随着盐浓度的增加先降低后升高,成糊温度随着盐浓度的增加呈现先显著升高后略微下降的趋势。对于马铃薯淀粉-黄原胶复配体系,盐的加入升高了复配体系的成糊温度、峰值黏度和崩解值,并且复配体系的黏度值随着盐浓度的增加而增加。流变学性质表明盐引起马铃薯淀粉糊的假塑性增强,并随着盐浓度的增加假塑性先增强后略有减弱,相反盐引起马铃薯淀粉/黄原胶复配体系的假塑性减弱,并与盐浓度之间没有明显的规律性。     

Effect of Potato Starch Properties on Instant Noodle Quality in Wheat Flour and Potato Starch Blends

The properties of potato starch and their effect on the quality of Chinese‐style alkaline instant noodles made from wheat flour and potato starch blends were investigated. Starches were extracted from nine potato cultivars, and the phosphorus content of these starches was analyzed together with the median granule size and pasting and gelatinization properties. Instant noodles were manufactured using mixtures of wheat flour and these potato starches. A Rheoner instrument was used to evaluate three textural parameters, namely, the breaking force (BF), breaking energy (BE), and ratio of the breaking force to the breaking deformation (BF/BD), of instant noodles cooked by immersing into boiling water for 3 and 7 min. The phosphorus content, peak viscosity, and breakdown were significantly and positively correlated with the BF of the noodles cooked for 3 min and did not significantly correlate with that of those cooked for 7 min. Other quality parameters of potato starch did not affect the BF significantly. Other textural parameters of instant noodle quality, such as the BE and BF/BD, did not significantly correlate with any of the quality parameters of potato starch. The findings obtained with the use of wheat flour and potato starch blends suggest that phosphate, which is thought to enhance starch viscosity of potato starch, is important for making instant noodles with favorable texture in hardness.

The Effect of pH on the Zeta Potential of Wheat and Potato Starch

The facility with which starch is dispersed in aqueous media and the interactions of starch with other components are functions of the surface properties of starch granules. The zeta potentials of wheat and potato starch granules have been measured in the pH range 2 – 10 by microelectrophoresis. Removal of components from the surface of granules using appropriate reagents has enabled us to identify the contributions of the charged groups present on te surface of the granules. Results obtained from micropotentiometric titration of starch suspensions support the conclusions obtained from zeta potential measurements. At their isoelectric points, starch preparations flocculated, indicating that starch suspensions are charge-stabilized.     

Effect of Processing on Slowly Digestible Starch and Resistant Starch in Potato

The effect of a number of laboratory‐scale pretreatments on the proportions of rapidly digested (RDS), slowly digested (SDS) and resistant starch (RS) in raw and cooked potato has been examined using an in vitro digestion procedure. Potatoes of the variety Frisia were prepared in three states: raw, cooked, and cooked followed by a cold treatment (4°C, two days). Each preparation was then subjected in triplicate to freeze‐drying, coarsely mincing, pasting, freezing, dry‐milling after freeze‐drying, in 22 different combinations, before digesting. In raw potato, very little RDS and SDS (<5% total starch (TS)) were present, and the mechanical treatments of the potato did not affect the amounts of RDS and SDS. Cooking resulted in an almost complete conversion to RDS (>95% TS) in freshly‐cooked potato, but after post‐cooking cold treatment much of the RDS transformed to SDS, which reached a maximum of about 45% TS. SDS formation was independent of the degree of tissue disruption after cooking, and was generally associated with formation of RS, however, freezing after cooking allowed SDS formation without prolonged cold treatment and with very little associated RS (SDS 35% and RS 4% of TS). Freeze‐drying caused an increase in RS in most treatments of the cooked potatoes. The observed effects provided guidance for sample handling in potato research, but also suggested several approaches to the enrichment of SDS and/or RS, with a concurrent reduction in RDS, that could be used to improve the nutritional profile of potato products by decreasing RDS (lowered glycaemic impact), and increasing SDS (more sustained energy availability) and RS (prebiotic benefits).

Effect of Storage on Starch Content and Modification of Cassava Starch

The effect of storage on yield and modification of starch using hydrochloric acid and acetic anhydride were studied. Yield of starch from fresh roots (24.4%) was significantly greater than yield (16,2%) from roots stored at room temperature for six days. On a dry weight basis the amount of starch in the roots decreased over a six day storage period. The proximate composition of cassava starch on dry weight basis was 0.24% ash, 0.13% fat, 0.49% protein, 0.15% crude fibre and 98.4% starch. The isolated starch was treated with different concentration of hydrochloric acid to produce acid thinned and dextrinized starches and different concentration of acetic anhydride to produce acetyl substituted starches. The alkali number of acid thinned and dextrinized starches increased with acid treatment while the viscosity decreased. The degree of substitution increased with the concentration of acetic anhydride used. The cold water solubility of the acid thinned and acetyl substituted starches were similar to that of native starches while the solubility of the dextrinized starches increased with the acid concentration. The viscosity of the acetyl substituted starches increased with the degree of substitution.
