Papaya‐Leaf‐Assisted Fermentation for Enhanced Extraction of Cassava Peel Starch and Its Application in Biodegradable Films

Starch - Stärke, Volume 78, Issue 8, August 2026.
Papaya‐leaf‐assisted fermentation enhanced cassava‐peel starch recovery relative to fermentation without leaves and direct grinding, while lowering nitrogenous residues. Films plasticized with glycerol and acetic acid exhibited disrupted starch hydrogen bonding, loss of A‐type crystallinity, and pronounced hydrophilicity. Soil‐burial tests showed rapid,
