Cassava bagasse cellulose nanofibrils reinforced thermoplastic cassava starch

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2009
Cellulose cassava bagasse nanofibrils (CBN) were directly extracted from a by-product of the cassava starch (CS) industry, viz. the cassava bagasse (CB). The morphological structure of the ensuing nanoparticles was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), presence of ...

Photodegradation of Cassava and Corn Starches [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2001
The baking expansion properties of sour cassava starch (Polvilho azedo) are attributable to photochemical starch degradation induced by heterolactic fermentation after sun-drying. This study investigated the effects of UV irradiation on the different structural levels of cassava starch as compared to those of corn starch and dextrins.

Preparation and Characterisation of Thermoplastic Starches from Cassava Starch, Cassava Root and Cassava Bagasse

Macromolecular Symposia, 2005
AbstractSummary: Thermoplastic starches (TPS) based on cassava starch have been produced by extrusion at 120 °C, using glycerol as plasticizer. Three forms of cassava starch were employed, viz: cassava root (CR), cassava bagasse (CB) and purified cassava starch (PCS).

Depolymerisation of cassava starch

Carbohydrate Polymers, 1999
A factor in the use of native cassava starch for commercial food production is its variability. Agronomic factors and processing protocols alter the performance of starch in food products. Work carried out at the University of Nottingham has indicated that cassava is particularly susceptible to starch conversion when being extruded. Also, cassava seems

Modeling cassava starch saccharification with amyloglucosidase

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1996
A solution of α-amylase liquefied cassava starch, 30% (w/v), was saccharified with amyloglucosidase at 45°C, pH 4.5, in a batch reactor in the presence and absence of added glucose. Reactor conversion results were modeled with a multisubstrate model that considers intermediate dextrins of starch hydrolysis, reversibility of some reactions, substrate ...

Properties of baked foams from citric acid modified cassava starch and native cassava starch blends

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2016
Starch foams from native cassava starch (NS) and citric acid modified cassava starch (CNS) were prepared using baking processes with blend ratios of 80/20, 60/40, 50/50, 40/60 and 20/80. The density, thickness, morphology, thermal stability and water absorption of the NS, CNS and blended starch foams were determined.

CHARACTERIZATION OF FERMENTED CASSAVA STARCHES

Journal of Food Biochemistry, 1993
Fermented and nonfermented cassava (Manihot utilissima Pohl) starches from Colombia and Brazil were studied. The DSC themograms obtained at high water contents (water:starch 3.1 to 4.2) showed that starch fermentation decreased both the temperature of gelatinization (Tmax) and that of final gelatinization.

BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS FROM CASSAVA STARCH

Acta Horticulturae, 2006
In the past few decades, there has been a marked advance in the development of biodegradable plastics from renewable resources, especially for those derived from starch-based materials. The goal of this development is to obtain biodegradable plastics that perform as well as traditional plastics when in use and which completely biodegrade at disposal ...

Anaerobic digestion of cassava starch factory effluent

World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1990
Biomethanation of cassava starch factory effluent in a batch digester produced 130 l biogas/kg dry matter with an average melthane content of 59%. About 63% COD was removed during 60 days. In semicontinuous digesters, gas production was 3251/kg dry matter with a retention time of 33,3 days giving a COD reduction of 50%.
