Abstract:

Background and Objectives: As chemical methods are commonly used to modify the starch properties, in this study, the influence of chemical modification using POCl3 on the rice starch function was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Rice starch was isolated by alkaline extraction of the proteins and cross-linked rice starches were prepared from reactions between native rice starch (low and high amylose) and varied concentrations of POCl3 (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 % w/w). The physicochemical, rheological and morphological properties of rice starches (water absorption and solubility, pasting viscosity parameters, light transmittance, freeze-thaw stability, and scanning electron microscopy) were evaluated. Results: According to SEM micrographs, cross-linking did not affect granule size or shape. The cross-linked starches showed lower solubility than that of the native starches and solubility decreased with increasing the concentration of cross-linking agent. Cross-linking decreased the capability of starches to absorb water at high concentration of cross-linking agent (0.3%). The paste clarity and pasting viscosity parameters of cross-linked samples were lower than their native starches and decreased with POCl3 concentration. The freeze-thaw stability of rice starches improved by cross-linking and increased with an increase in cross-linking agent concentration. Regarding amylose content, low amylose rice starches showed lower water solubility, water absorption and freeze-thaw stability and higher pasting viscosity parameters than those of high amylose ones. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that high amylose cross-linked rice starch can be used in food systems in which higher stability, or controlled increase of viscosity is desired during their processing.

Structures and physicochemical properties of six wild rice starches.

Starches from six wild rice cultivars were studied for their chemical structures and physicochemical properties and compared with a long-grain rice starch. The six wild rice starches were similar in morphological appearance, X-ray diffraction patterns, swelling power, and water solubility index but different in amylose content, beta-amylolysis limit, branch chain length distribution, thermal pr...

Impact of single and dual modifications on physicochemical properties of japonica and indica rice starches.

The japonica (JR) and indica (IR) rice starches were modified by acetylation, hydroxypropylation, cross-linking, and dual modification (cross-linked acetylation and cross-linked hydroxypropylation) and the effects of single and dual chemical modifications of JR and WR on the physicochemical properties were investigated. The JR had a greater substitution degree of acetyl or hydroxypropyl groups ...

Physicochemical and Gelatinization Properties of Starches Separated from Various Rice Cultivars.

UNLABELLED Morphological, viscoelastic, hydration, pasting, and thermal properties of starches separated from 10 different rice cultivars were investigated. Upon gelatinization, the G' values of the rice starch pastes ranged from 37.4 to 2057 Pa at 25 °C, and remarkably, the magnitude depended on the starch varieties. The rheological behavior during gelatinization upon heating brought out diffe...

Extrusion Conditions and Amylose Content Affect Physicochemical Properties of Extrudates Obtained from Brown Rice Grains

The utilization of whole grains in food formulations is nowadays recommended. Extrusion cooking allows obtaining precooked cereal products and a wide range of ready-to-eat foods. Two rice varieties having different amylose content (Fortuna 16% and Paso 144, 27%) were extruded using a Brabender single screw extruder. Factorial experimental design was used to study the effects of extrusion temper...
