Study on the effect of co‐plasticization of post‐industrial starch for high‐impact thermoplastic starch development

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
High‐impact thermoplastic starch blends through the co‐plasticization methodology. Abstract This study analyzed the effect of employing plasticized or co‐plasticized post‐industrial starch in developing PBAT‐based thermoplastic starch (TPS) blends. In this work, the post‐industrial wheat starch was co‐plasticized with glycerol‐urea, glycerol‐citric ...

Comparison of Short-grain Rice Cultivars Grown in Japan and the United States [PDF]

, 2018
Although short-grain rice accounts for less than 2% of U.S. rice production, the demand for short-grain rice is expected to increase because of the increasing popularity of sushi and sake. The objective of this study was to compare the physical, chemical

Metabolic effects of diets differing in glycaemic index depend on age and endogenous GIP [PDF]

, 2009
Aims/hypothesis High- vs low-glycaemic index (GI) diets unfavourably affect body fat mass and metabolic markers in rodents. Different effects of these diets could be age-dependent, as well as mediated, in part, by carbohydrate-induced stimulation of ...

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 ...

Starch Synthase IIa-Deficient Mutant Rice Line Produces Endosperm Starch With Lower Gelatinization Temperature Than Japonica Rice Cultivars

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The gelatinization temperature of endosperm starch in most japonica rice cultivars is significantly lower than that in most indica rice cultivars. This is because three single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Starch synthase (SS) IIa gene in japonica rice
