Micro and nanoparticles of native and modified cassava starches as carriers of the antimicrobial potassium sorbat [PDF]
Cross-linked and/or acetylated cassava starches were synthesized and characterized. The acetylation increased the water retention capacity and the solubility in water while the higher level of cross-linking produced the opposite effect on starch. Native (

Understanding Starch Structure: Recent Progress
Starch is a major food supply for humanity. It is produced in seeds, rhizomes, roots and tubers in the form of semi-crystalline granules with unique properties for each plant.

Genome editing in maize and sorghum: A comprehensive review of CRISPR/Cas9 and emerging technologies
Abstract The increasing changes in the climate patterns across the globe have deeply affected food systems where unparalleled and unmatched challenges are created. This jeopardizes food security due to an ever‐increasing population. The extreme efficiency of C4 crops as compared to C3 crops makes them incredibly significant in securing food safety.

Abstract Background and Objectives Ancient grains like einkorn, emmer, and spelt remain underutilized and underexplored, limiting their market potential. This study evaluates the chemical composition, rheology, pasting, and baking properties of spring growth habit einkorn, emmer, and spelt cultivars grown in the Canadian prairies compared to wholemeal ...

Evaluation of industrial potential of novel cassava starches with low and high amylose contents in comparison with other commercial starch sources [PDF]
The industrial starch market is undergoing major expansion, but certain specific industrial uses cannot be satisfied by native starches and, therefore, chemical or physical modification is necessary.

Amylopectin, the major component of starch, is synthesized by synergistic activity of multiple isozymes of starch synthases (SSs) and branching enzymes (BEs). The frequency and length of amylopectin branches determine the functionality of starch.

Physicochemical, Morphological, and Digestibility Properties of Round and Wrinkled Pea Starches
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Pea protein isolation results in a significant amount of starch‐rich byproduct. Efficient utilization of this byproduct can be crucial for economic feasibility of protein isolation process. In this study, we examined the physicochemical, morphological, and digestibility properties of starches derived from round and ...

MARTINI Coarse-grained Force Field for Thermoplastic Starch Nanocomposites [PDF]
Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is an excellent film-forming material, and adding fillers such as tetramethylammonium-montmorillonite (TMA-MMT) clay has significantly expanded its use in packaging applications. We first used all-atom (AA) simulation to predict several macroscopic (Young modulus, glass transition temperature, density) and microscopic ...
