The objective of the research was to investigate the physicochemical characteristics of Tarap fruit starch. In this study, young Tarap fruit starch was extracted and the percentage of total starch, resistant starch, amylose and amylopectin were determined. Scanning electron microscope was used to evaluate the morphological features of the starch granule. Swelling, pasting, gelatinization, retrogradation and in vitro digestibility were also investigated. A total of 17.85% starch was successfully extracted from unripe Tarap fruit, whereas the amount of total starch and resistant starch were 89.14% and 47.82%, respectively. The amounts of rapid digestible starch and slowly digestible starch were 6.58% and 23.25%, respectively. Results found that the amylopectin content was higher than amylose (77.15% and 11.97%). The starch granules were round and polygon in shapes with smooth surfaces. The average of starch granules size was range from 6.50 to 8.30 μm with 7.4 μm of mean granule diameter. Pasting properties showed that peak viscosity was observed at about 6.5 min at 73.5oC. Tarap starch gelatinization temperatures (onset, 71.63°C; peak, 74.56°C; conclusion, 78.24°C) and enthalpy of gelatinization (ΔHgel) (3.74 J/g) were higher while the retrograded starches show lower retrogradation temperature and enthalpy than native starches. Unripe Tarap starch showed good potential to be utilized as adhesives and thickener for industrial applications.

Coleus tuberosus, also known as black potato, is one of the Indonesian local tubers consumed as a carbohydrate substituent. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of processing and cooling methods on the in vitro digestibility of black potato starch. Furthermore, two factors Randomized Block Design with a 2x3 experimental design was used, which consisted of processing methods (boiling, roasting, and microwave) and cooling at room temperature and 4 °C for 24 hours with 3 repetitions. Black potato flour was compared with the raw form, by assessing some parameters, namely Resistant Starch (RS), Slowly Digestible Starch (SDS), Rapidly Digestible Starch (RDS), and Glycemic Index (GI). Also, the analysis of total starch, moisture, and color was performed, hence raw black potatoes generally have 10% resistant starch (%wb). Different treatments of cooking and cooling had a significant effect (α = 0.05) on moisture content, total starch, RS, RDS, SDS, GI, brightness (L), and yellowness (b). Black potatoes subjected to the processing method followed by cooling had lower RDS and increased RS content. Furthermore, refrigeration at 4°C for 24 hours reduced the digestibility of black potato starch more than cooling at room temperature. Contrarily, microwaved black potato cooled at room temperature showed a higher digestion rate compared to the raw counterpart. Conclusively, processing followed by cooling reduces the GI and increases the RS content of Coleus tuberosus.

Batu (Musa balbisiana Colla) and Kepok (Musa paradisiaca formatypica) bananas are two food commodities with high resistant starch content. The later has been suggested to prevent colorectal cancer. Modifications of these, into flour via the addition of pullulanase enzymes and autoclaving-cooling method are expected to improve the quality. The physical characteristics, levels of resistant starch, amylose, amylopectin and in vitro digestibility of enzymatically modified banana starches were determined. Therefore, a descriptive study was performed with untreated Batu banana flour (TP), autoclavingcooling (AC), autoclaving-cooling + pullulanase enzyme (AC + E), and autoclavingcooling + pullulanase enzyme + autoclaving-cooling (AC + E + AC). The granular morphology, water absorption, and swelling ability were evaluated as physical characteristics. Amylose, amylopectin content, and starch digestibility were evaluated as chemical characteristics. Based on SEM, the analysis of granular morphology showed structural modification in both treatments, although Batu banana flour showed greater water absorption and swelling ability, with and without AC + E + AC. However, both samples demonstrated better outcomes, in terms of high levels of starch resistance, low amylose, high amylopectin, and low in vitro digestibility after treatment with AC + E + AC.

A novel rice germplasm sbeIIb/Lgc1 producing grains rich in resistant starch (RS) but low in glutelin has been developed through CRISPR/Cas9-mediated targeted mutagenesis for its potential benefits to patients with diabetes and kidney diseases. In this study, a hydrothermal approach known as heat-moisture treatment (HMT) was identified as a simple and effective method in reinforcing the nutritional benefits of sbeIIb/Lgc1 rice. As a result of HMT treatment at 120 °C for 2 h, significant reductions in in vitro digestibility and enhancements in RS content were observed in sbeIIb/Lgc1 rice flour when the rice flour mass fraction was 80% and 90%. The low-glutelin feature of sbeIIb/Lgc1 rice was not compromised by HMT. The potential impacts of HMT on a range of physicochemical properties of sbeIIb/Lgc1 rice flour have also been analyzed. HMT resulted in a darker color of rice flour, alteration in the semi-crystalline structure, an increase in gelatinization temperatures, and reductions in the pasting viscosities as the moisture content increased. This study provides vital data for the food industry to facilitate the application of this dual-functional rice flour as a health food ingredient.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of epichlorohydrin (ECH) concentration and reaction time on the food-grade resistant starch production and its pasting properties by using native cassava starch of Misiones-Argentina origin. Design/methodology/approach Cassava starch was modified using ECH (0.30 and 0.15 per cent) during 4 or 8 h. Digestibility was evaluated by determining resistant starch as total dietary fiber. Pasting properties and the cross-linking degree were studied using a micro-viscoamylograph (Brabender). Findings Resistant starch content was not influenced by ECH concentration and reaction time. Cross-linking was detected at higher reaction times (8 h) and ECH concentrations (0.30 per cent), where a decrease in viscosity peaks by more than 80 per cent was observed. Both pasting temperature and breakdown were increased, whereas a decrease in retrogradation was detected. Practical implications Starches can be suitable for different food applications. This is because of the ability to modify its pasting properties and the invariability of the in vitro digestibility of cassava starch as a result of using ECH (at concentrations approved by local and regional legislation) and reaction times of 4 and 8 h. Originality/value Information related to the modification of cassava starch using ECH is scarce or not available nowadays in literature.

The demand for healthy, satiating, and convenient products is growing, with ready-to-eat expanded snacks being the preferred. These are produced made by extrusion, which is a versatile and efficient technology, with an immense potential to develop new food products. In addition to satisfy consumer requests, it is interesting to add alternative protein sources to these products, such as insects that have nutritional benefits and ecological advantages. The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of extrusion temperature and enrichment with house cricket (Acheta domesticus) on properties of extruded snacks. Extrudates were produced with a single-screw extruder at two barrel temperatures (165 and 175 °C), formulated with corn flour and house cricket powder in mass ratios, 100:0, 95:5, 90:10, and 85:15. Water content, water activity, expansion, porosity, water absorption, water solubility indices; swelling index and hygroscopicity; colour, texture, protein content, in vitro digestibility, and protein bioaccessibility were measured. The results suggest that incorporating edible insects in extruded snacks can be a good alternative to the snacks on the market, since they maintain the appropriate physicochemical characteristics, especially when formulated at low temperatures. Further, they improve the protein content, with the recommended percentage use of 5 and 10% of house cricket, for the formulation of snacks with extrusion at 165 °C.

Purple rice flour contains high levels of a number of antioxidant compounds; however, it has seldom been used as an ingredient in bakery products. The aim was to increase the nutritional value of biscuits by adding purple rice flour to a basic wheat flour biscuit. The substitution of purple rice flour in place of wheat flour modified the characteristics of the biscuits in terms of increasing the nutritional values. They contained high fiber, antioxidants, and antioxidant activities, while slightly changing the physical properties such as hardness and spread ratio. The study showed that the protein digestibility increased as the content of the purple rice flour was increased in the biscuit mix. The 100% purple rice flour biscuits had the lowest predicted glycemic index (pGI) of all the biscuits. Sensory analysis showed that the overall acceptability of the blended flour biscuits at 25 and 50% substitution levels was slightly less than that of the control biscuits with only 9%; however, the scores were above 5 which means the panelists still liked the biscuits a lot. Overall, the inclusion of purple rice flour in biscuits mix increased crude protein content, protein digestibility, and bioactive compounds with acceptable sensory scores from consumers up to 50% substitution of purple rice.
