Synthesis and properties of composites of starch and chemically modified natural rubber [PDF]

, 2004
A means is developed for forming polysaccharide-based composites with useful material properties through use of unmodified and chemically modified natural rubber latex (NRL). Starch was used as a model for polysaccharides.

Deciphering the Effect of Millet Type on the Structure of the Bacterial Community in an Indian Fermented Beverage

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Millet‐based fermented beverages were prepared using different millet varieties with an aim to investigate the microbial communities that develop during natural fermentation. This study revealed an abundance of lactic acid bacteria, highlighting their key role in natural fermentation.

Development of EMS-induced mutation population for amylose and resistant starch variation in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) and identification of candidate genes responsible for amylose variation

BMC Plant Biology, 2016
Starch is a major part of cereal grain. It comprises two glucose polymer fractions, amylose (AM) and amylopectin (AP), that make up about 25 and 75 % of total starch, respectively.

Discovery of three genotypes of Discorea trifida grown in Venezuelan Amazons with quite low-amylose starch: 1. Physical attributes and proximate composition of the tubers and characterization of its waxy starches [PDF]

, 2009
Yam Dioscorea trifida, is an economical and cultural important crop for indigenous from Amazon region of South America. These crops could be a potential supply of starch that would be good source for different food industries. Nonetheless, is very little

Biosynthesis and Regulation of Wheat Amylose and Amylopectin from Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Characterization of Granule-binding Proteins

Scientific Reports, 2016
Waxy starch has an important influence on the qualities of breads. Generally, grain weight and yield in waxy wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are significantly lower than in bread wheat.

Fingerprinting of Semi‐Refined Flaxseed Protein Using Raman Spectroscopy and Multivariate Analysis: Pulsed Electric Field (PEF)‐Assisted Alkali and Aqueous Extraction Methods Alter Composition and Protein Conformation

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Structural changes in semi‐refined flaxseed protein extracts were effectively characterized using Raman spectroscopy coupled with PCA. The application of higher PEF energy enhanced hydrophobic interactions among aliphatic amino acids, while at lower PEF inputs, the extraction medium dictated secondary structure formation: α‐helices favored in aqueous ...

PROTEIN TARGETING TO STARCH Is Required for Localising GRANULE-BOUND STARCH SYNTHASE to Starch Granules and for Normal Amylose Synthesis in Arabidopsis

PLoS Biology, 2015
The domestication of starch crops underpinned the development of human civilisation, yet we still do not fully understand how plants make starch. Starch is composed of glucose polymers that are branched (amylopectin) or linear (amylose).

Porcine in vitro digestion and matrix structure of undigested residue of xylanase‐ and cellulase‐supplemented maize and wheat

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the effects of supplementing maize and wheat with a combination of xylanase and cellulase on porcine in vitro digestibility, nonstarch polysaccharides (NSP) solubilization, and matrix structure. The latter was assessed using synchrotron‐based micro‐computed tomography (SR‐μCT) and Fourier transform mid ...

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

Journal 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 ...

Discovery of natural waxy cassava starch. Evaluation of its potential as a new functional ingredient in food [PDF]

, 2010
Cassava starch is a functional ingredient largely used in the food industry. This work reported the discovery of the first natural waxy cassava genotype (AM206-5) in CIAT, Cali, Colombia. SDS-PAGE demonstrated abnormality in the GBSS enzyme in the starch
