Characterisation of starches isolated from Arracacha xanthorriza, Canna edulis and Oxalis tuberosa and extracted from potato leaf [PDF]

, 2004
Starches from Arracacha xanthorriza, Canna edulis and Oxalis tuberosa grown in the Andean region were characterised. All three starches revealed a B-type X-ray diffraction pattern.

Relationship between intrinsic viscosity, thermal and retrogradation properties of amylose and amylopectin

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2014
The relationships between intrinsic viscosity and some properties of amylose and amylopectin were investigated. The intrinsic viscosities determined by Ubbelohde viscometer for rice, maize, wrinkled pea and potato amyloses were 46.28 ± 0.30, 123.94 ± 0 ...

Engineering Slowly Digestible Starch via Physical and Enzymatic Modification: Structural Mechanisms of Formation. [PDF]

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT Dietary starch varies in digestion rate: Rapidly digestible fractions cause sharp postprandial glucose spikes linked to chronic disease, whereas slowly digestible starch (SDS) breaks down gradually, producing a moderate glycemic response. Increasing SDS content is therefore a key objective in developing carbohydrate‐rich foods with improved ...

Starch branching enzymes and their genes in Sorghum [PDF]

, 2004
Starch is an important raw material both for food and non-food purposes. It is synthesized and stored in source and sink tissues in plants. The starch deposited in amyloplasts of storage tissues possesses several physico-chemical properties, which makes ...

Slow hydrolysis of amylose in soluble starch and amylopectin in suspendable starch liberated from non-glutinous rice flour heated with a sorghum extract

Heliyon, 2022
Polyphenols in plant can interact with amylose and amylopectin in different ways affecting their hydrolysis by α-amylase. Pancreatin liberated starch from non-glutinous rice flour heated with and without an aqueous extract of sorghum seeds, and ...

Contributions of Three Starch Branching Enzyme Isozymes to the Fine Structure of Amylopectin in Rice Endosperm

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Three starch branching enzyme (BE) isozymes, BEI, BEIIa, and BEIIb, are involved in starch biosynthesis in rice endosperm. Past in vivo and in vitro studies have suggested that each BE isozyme plays a distinct role in forming the fine structure of ...
