Relation of Rheological Properties with Starch Components among Glutinous, Sticky, Less-sticky Non-glutinous Rice Starches

Functional Properties of Glutinous Rice Flour by Dry-Heat Treatment

Glutinous rice flour (GRF) and glutinous rice starch (GRS) were modified by dry-heat treatment and their rheological, thermal properties and freeze-thaw stability were evaluated. Compared with the native GRF and GRS, the water-holding ability of modified GRF and GRS were enhanced. Both the onset and peak temperatures of the modified samples increased while the endothermic enthalpy change decrea...

Molecular evidence on the origin and evolution of glutinous rice.

Glutinous rice is a major type of cultivated rice with long-standing cultural importance in Asia. A mutation in an intron 1 splice donor site of the Waxy gene is responsible for the change in endosperm starch leading to the glutinous phenotype. Here we examine an allele genealogy of the Waxy locus to trace the evolutionary and geographical origins of this phenotype. On the basis of 105 glutinou...

Effects of substitution of black glutinous rice flour for wheat flour on batter and cake properties

The effect of substitution of black glutinous rice flour for normal wheat flour on batter and cake properties was determined. Black glutinous rice flour was used to substitute 30, 50, 70 and 100% of wheat flour in a control cake formulation. Experimental data showed that pasting temperature, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown and setback of all black glutinous rice and mixes flour sampl...
