Amylose-lipid complex as a measure of variations in physical, mechanical and barrier attributes of rice starch- ι -carrageenan biodegradable edible film [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Improvements in the hygroscopic properties of starch based films are important to strengthen their mechanical properties. The effects of different hydrophobic components-butyric acid (BA, C4:0), lauric acid (LA, C12:0), palmitic acid (PA, C16:0), oleic ...

Physicochemical and morphological characterization of potato starch (Solanum tuberosum L.) as raw material for the purpose of obtaining bioethanol

open access: yesAgronomía Colombiana, 2015
In Colombia, there are geographic areas where the potato crop is the principal economic product. The diversity of potato varieties, has resulted in differences in sizes and in chemical and physical compositions.

The influence of systematic heat and drought applications at defined growth stages on malting barley starch properties

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Starch gelatinization behavior and the proportion of B‐granules are crucial for malt quality as a result of their impact on starch degradation during malt‐based beverage production. Starch structure and resulting starch properties are determined by the starch synthesis during barley plant growth, which is influenced by barley ...

Prediction of rice texture from starch profiles measured using high-performance liquid chromatography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Starch determines a large proportion of the textural properties of cooked rice. The amylose: amylopectin ratio plays a significant role in the functionality of native starch.

High temperature boosts resistant starch content by altering starch structure and lipid content in rice ssIIIa mutants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
High temperature (HT) during grain filling had adverse influences on starch synthesis. In this study, the influences of HT on resistant starch (RS) formation in rice were investigated. Most genes in ssIIIa mutants especially in RS4 were upregulated under

Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
This review article discusses the use of biodegradable polymers to address several grand challenges in agriculture: to improve the delivery of nitrogen and phosphorous to crops, to optimize plant uptake, and to enhance the recovery of these nutrients from wastewater, to recycle them and reduce water pollution. Abstract The current use of fertilizers is
