The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of annealing, succinylation, and a dual modification process (succinylation–annealing) on the physicochemical, thermal, and morphological properties of corn starch. Specifically, the properties of interest were the water-binding capacity (WBC), swelling power, paste clarity, solubility, pasting properties, stability ratio, and thermal and morphological characteristics. The dual modification process increased the physicochemical properties (WBC, swelling power, peak viscosity, and paste clarity) and increased the gelatinization temperature and gelatinization enthalpy (∆H), but had no effect on the morphological properties and X-ray diffraction patterns. A comparison of samples, made using each of the processes, showed that dual modification increased the stability ratio (more stable viscosity under thermal and shear stress), which was 0.69 for dual modified starch, compared with 0.64, 0.58 and 0.44 for native, succinylated, and annealed starches, respectively. The findings of the present study are of potential use in the food industry.

Effect of acetylation and heat moisture treatment (HMT) on physicochemical, morphological and rheological properties of buckwheat starch (Fagopyrum esculentum) was investigated. Acetylation, decreased amylose content of starch with increase in water binding capacity, oil binding capacity, swelling power, solubility and sediment volume. Acetylated starch showed improved paste clarity (five days storage) and increased peak viscosity as compared to native starch. Amylose content, water binding capacity, and oil binding capacity was also improved in HMT starch. The increase in onset temperature of viscosity development and the decrease in peak viscosity was observed in HMT starch. HMT decreased swelling power and solubility of native starch.

This study investigated the effects of annealing, autoclaving-cooling and heat moisture treatment on the microstructure and physicochemical characteristics of taro starch. The taro starch was treated by the annealing process (24 hrs, 50oC), the heat moisture treatment (HMT) (moisture 25%, 3 hrs, 110oC), and the autoclaving (15 mins, 121oC) - cooling (24 hrs, 4oC) with 1 and 2 cycles. The results show that the autoclaving-cooling 2 cycles (AC-2C) changed the microstructure of taro starch into a very compact and dense structure because of formed double helix bound that cannot be hydrolyzed by pancreatic enzymes so it can be converted became resistant starch as the prebiotic source. Pasting properties analysis showed that AC-2C improved shear stress resistance, heat resistance and low retrogradation modified taro starch (MTS). The AC-2C treatment increased water binding capacity (73.84%), solubility (44.58%), and swelling power (16.71%) of MTS. The water-binding capacity had a positive correlation with solubility and swelling power. The AC-2C treatment increased amylose content (27.40%) and decreased reducing sugar level (6.36%) of MTS, so it can encourage the formation of resistant starch to improve the prebiotic properties of taro starch. Modified taro starch AC-2C is the best compared to HMT and annealing based on microstructure and physicochemical characteristics.

Cassava tubers are main sources of calories and dietary fibre for Nigerians. Cassava tubers are highly perishable and need to be processed immediately after harvest. Cassava can be used for human consumption, livestock feed or industrial purposes. Cassava starch is one of the main industrial products of cassava processing. The long drying times for cassava starch production during sun drying have necessitated the need for alternative drying methods. However, the quality of the starch obtained from these alternative drying methods needs to be investigated. Starch was produced from four different varieties (TME 1, TMS 30572, TMS 01/1235 and TMS 01/1181) of cassava using two drying methods (sun and oven drying at 40o C). The physical (yield and moisture content), functional (water binding capacity, swelling power and solubility) and pasting properties of the starch produced were investigated. The moisture content varied from 9.24 to 10.48%, with oven dried TME 1 having the lowest values and sun dried TMS 01/1181 having the highest value. The yield of starch obtained from drying the four varieties using the two drying methods increased from 458.5 to 687.2g per kg of cassava tuber. The water binding capacity, swelling power and solubility increased from 97.97 to 99.83 g water/g sample, 11.69–14.19 g/ml and 10.20 – 12.96% (g soluble solids/ g DM of whole starch sample) respectively, for the different varieties dried using the two drying methods. Peak viscosity, trough, break down, final viscosity, peak time and pasting temperature values for the four cassava varieties were in the range of 335.76–619.89 RVU, 135.67–192.35 RVU, 199.38–433.99 RVU, 196.01–257.72 RVU, 3.23–3.91 min and 70.05–72.95oC, respectively for the two drying methods. The values obtained from the cassava varieties considered were generally significantly different (except colour) which shows significant effect of cassava variety used on starch properties. Also, cassava starch samples dried at lower temperature have better functional and pasting properties. This indicates that alternative drying methods should be used at temperatures lower than 40oC in order to obtain products of high quality.

Starch was extracted (isolated) from cocoyam with the aid of water solution of oxalic acid and ammonium oxalate in 8 samples of ratios, 1:3, 1:1, 3:1, 2:3, 2:1, 1:2 and 0:0 respectively. The physiochemical properties were investigated in order to unveil its characteristics and unravel the potentials for industrial applications of the cocoyam starch. The physiochemical properties investigated includes; Amylose and Amylopectin contents, water binding capacity, particle size distribution, swelling power and solubility. The results obtained showed that swelling power and solubility of the starch were temperature dependent. The solubility was found to increase with temperature increase as the cocoyam starch showed highest solubility within the 70-90°C temperature range. The swelling power was found fluctuating between the temperatures of 25-90°C. The swelling power starch sample isolated with blending ratios of 2:1 and 1:2 were temperature dependent. The Amylose content ranges from 3.06 to 31.21%.

Protein–starch gels are becoming more common in food processing when looking for enriched foods. However, processing conditions scarcely are considered when producing those gels. The aim of this research was to study the effect of processing pH (4.5, 6.0, and 7.5) on the hydration and pasting properties, gel microstructure, and texture of corn starchy gels made with four different proteins (pea, rice, egg albumin, and whey) at a ratio of 1:1 starch/protein and a solid content of 12.28%. The water binding capacity of the starch–protein mixtures was positively influenced by low solubility of the protein used. Acidic pH decreased the apparent peak viscosity of both starch and starch–protein mixtures, with the exception of starch–albumin blends, which increased it. The gels’ microstructure showed that the uniformity of the protein-enriched gels was dependent on protein type and pH, leading to diverse hardness. In general, the starchy gels containing animal proteins (albumin and whey) were more affected by pH than those obtained with vegetal proteins (pea and rice). Therefore, processing pH might be an advisable method to modify the functionality of starch–protein gels.

The over-reliance of the food industry in Ghana on imported gums ultimately increases the final cost of processed food. Gums produced by some trees in Ghana have not been exploited commercially, probably due to lack of data on the properties which influence their application in the food industry. This study was therefore undertaken to assess the suitability of gums obtained from Cashew, Albizia, and Khaya trees in Ghana in food applications, using Acacia gum as a control. The properties studied include organoleptic, pH, solubility, viscosity, swelling power, and water binding capacity. The physicochemical properties were determined through experimentation and observation. The pH, viscosity, swelling power and water binding capacity of the gums were 3.80-5.00, 93.0-11195.0 mPas (at 3% concentration), 1.64-20.56% and 4.0-428.8%, respectively. Cashew gum showed similar properties as Acacia gum, and can be used as a substitute for Acacia gum. Albizia gum was found to have the highest viscosity and water binding capacity, followed by Khaya gum, and thus has the potential to be used as a thickener in jams, sauces, etc., and also prevent stalling in baked goods and crystallization in confectioneries. The acid stabilities of Cashew and Albizia gums were comparable with that of Acacia gum. Keywords: Acacia gum, food industry, water binding capacity, swelling power, viscosity, organoleptic properties

Amidst rising demand for modified starch, hydroxypropylated derivatives from water yam, an underutilized tropical botanical source remains unexplored. The objective of this work therefore is to extract starch from water yam, modify same by hydroxypropylation and determine their physicochemical, functional and morphological characteristics. Extraction of starch was carried out by blending peeled water yam previously soaked in 0.2%(w/v) NaHSO3 solution and filtering the resulting slurry. The filterate was next suspended in 0.2% NaOH solution, allowed to sediment and the supernatant oven-dried (400C) for 24 hrs. The dried product was subjected to hydroxypropylation (HP) (propylene oxide 4-12%/100g starch) and extent of molar substitution (MS) determined. The native and Hydroxypropylated starch (HPS) were evaluated for physicochemical, functional and morphological characteristics following standard methods. Pasting properties were analysed using Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) and elucidation of inherent functional groups was carried out by analyzing the FTIR Spectrum. Starch yield of 84.2% (dry wt. basis) and molar substitution (0.0024-0.05) of HPS were established. Bulk density increased (0.4988-0.6005g/cm3) with MS. There was significant (p=0.05) increase in the degree of Whiteness (W) (42.4-63.6%). Although granule size reduction was evident (33.88-33.43µm), hydroxypropylation did not affect their morphology. There was decline in concentrations of crude protein (0.18-0.01%), ash (1.35-0.34%) and amylose (44.19-37.48%) as MS rose. In contrast, there was significant (p=0.05) increase in water (1.76-2.66g/g) and oil absorption capacities (0.72-1.42g/g), swelling power (1.54-4.19g/g) and solubility (3.17-5.84g/g) at 500C. Freeze thaw cycles showed marked reduction in syneresis (10.3-1.09%) as MS increased. Peak Viscosity, pasting temperature and peak time of the HPS ranges were 297.83-583.6, 81.9-86.40C, and 4.5-7.0 mins respectively. FTIR band spectra indicated the presence of hydroxypropyl substituent groups in the modified starch. Hydroxypropylated starch (from water yam) at different molar substitution has been characterised and its properties established with strong potentials for wider applications in food systems.

Starches were isolated from three oat (Dzoker, Zvolen and Sampionka) and three barley (Barun, Zlatko and Vanessa) cultivars. The gelatinisation and retrogradation characteristics, pasting properties, swelling power, and solubility of the isolated starches were analysed. The gelatinisation onset temperatures varied from 59.4°C to 61.4°C for the oat starches (OS), and from 58.4°C to 62.2°C for the barley starches (BS). BS displayed a higher retrogradation enthalpy (ΔHr) than OS after 7 and 14 days storage at 4°C. OS-Sampionka had the lowest one while BS-Vanessa had the highest ΔHr after 7 and 14 days of storage. Significant differences in pasting properties were observed between the OS and BS. OS showed higher values of maximum viscosity than BS and followed the order: OS-Dzoker > OS-Sampionka > OS-Zvolen > BS-Vanessa > BS-Zlatko > BS-Barun. The breakdown viscosities of BS were considerably lower than those of OS. OS had higher swelling power and solubility values than BS. The higher swelling and solubility values of the oat starches in conjunction with lower retrogradation suggest different applications of these starches. The results showed that, while the barley starches are suitable for such applications where high stability is needed during heating and shearing (low breakdown values), the oat starches have a great potential for the applications where high stability during storage is needed (low ΔHr values). In addition, the barley starches are suitable for those applications where high water binding is undesirable, while the oat starches are applicable where low amounts of starch need to bind high proportions of water
