Abstract
During home cooking or industrial food processing operations, starch granules usually undergo a process known as gelatinization. The starch gelatinization degree (DG) influences the structural organization and properties of starch, which in turn alters the physicochemical, organoleptic, and gastrointestinal properties of starchy foods. This review summarizes methods for measuring DG, as well as the impact of DG on the starch structure, properties, and applications. Enzymatic digestion, iodine colorimetry, and differential scanning calorimetry are the most common methods for evaluating the DG. As the DG increases, the structural organization of the molecules within starch granules is progressively disrupted, the particle size of the granules is altered due to swelling and then disruption, the crystallinity is decreased, the molecular weight is reduced, and the starch-lipid complexes are formed. The impact of DG on the starch structure and properties depends on the processing method, operating conditions, and starch source. The starch DG affects the quality of many foods, including baked goods, fried foods, alcoholic beverages, emulsified foods, and edible inks. Thus, a better understanding of the changes in starch structure and function caused by gelatinization could facilitate the development of foods with novel or improved properties.

Abstract
The pressure-induce gelatinization of pea starch, potato starch and corn starch was investigated by a combination of in situ and ex-situ technical analyses. According to in-situ observation of gelatinization process and the analysis of granular morphology by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), the pressure that caused potato starch gelatinization was the highest at 600 MPa. This was followed by pea starch, and the pressure that caused the gelatinization of corn starch was the lowest at 400 MPa. In situ Raman spectral analysis revealed the molecular mechanism of starch gelatinization. This indicated that high pressure treatment resulted in the modification of the structure of the double helical polymers and the degree of a double helix of the starch crystalline varied as well. This study dynamically monitors the starch gelatinization process, aiming to better understand the gelatinization mechanism and provide a theoretical basis for the application of pressure in the starch field.

Evaluation of dual modification by high hydrostatic pressure and annealing on the physicochemical properties of bean starch. Food Res Int 2024; 177:113877. [PMID: 38225140 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
This study investigated the physical modifications by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) at 600 MPa for 30 min/30 °C, annealing (AN) at 50 °C/24 h and the combination of both (HHP + AN and AN + HHP) applied to yellow bean starch to verify changes in morphology, X-ray diffraction, molecular order, thermal properties and pasting properties of native (NS) and modified starches. Morphological analysis showed loss of sphericity and increase in diameter with the appearance of pores on the surface after application of treatments. The AN starch showed lower values of syneresis, degree of double helix (DD), order (DO), and viscosity of the paste obtained by RVA. It exhibited a Vh-type classification with the appearance of the amylose-lipid complex. However, the gelatinization temperatures, as well as the enthalpy of gelatinization, were significantly higher. On the other hand, the starch treated with HHP showed a higher Setback (SB) value. The greatest modifications were found for the starches subjected to the combined treatments (AN + HHP) and (HHP + AN), where the order of the treatments was significant for the morpho-structural changes of yellow bean starch. According to the micrographs, the surface aspect was altered, with AN + HHP showing greater irregularities and flat yet irregular faces, as well as a larger granule diameter (147.05). The X-ray diffractogram showed a reduction in crystallinity from 28.14 % (NS) to 18.09 % (AN + HHP) and classified the starch as type "A". The double modification (HHP + AN and AN + HHP) reduced the gelatinization temperature and the enthalpy of gelatinization but had no effect on the bands of the FT-IR spectrum. There was only a reduction in the degree of order and the double helix. Finally, the treatment with AN + HHP is more effective as the gelatinization with AN facilitates the application of HHP. Both methods used are classified as physical (thermal and non-thermal), aiming to minimize environmental impacts and achieve faster and safer morpho-structural modification without leaving chemical residues in the products.

Abstract
The current trend in the food industry is towards "clean label" products with high sensory and nutritional quality. However, the inclusion of nutrient-rich ingredients in recipes often leads to sensory deficiencies in baked goods. To meet these requirements, physically modified flours are receiving more and more attention from bakery product developers. There are various findings in the literature on high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) technology, which can be used to modify various matrices so that they can be used as ingredients in the baking industry. HHP treatments can change the functionality of starches and proteins due to cold gelatinization and protein unfolding. As a result, the resulting ingredients are more suitable for nutrient-rich bakery formulations. This review describes the information available in the literature on HHP treatment conditions for ingredients used in the production of bakery products and analyses the changes in the techno-functional properties of these matrices, in particular their ability to act as structuring agents. The impact of HHP-treated ingredients on the quality of dough and bakery products and the effects on some nutritional properties of the treated matrices have been also analysed. The findings presented in this paper could be of particular interest to the bakery industry as they could be very useful in promoting the industrial application of HHP technology.

Abstract
High pressure processing (HPP) is a starch modification method generally conducted in water, and little is known about the pressure-induced changes in different media. This study investigated the effects of water versus sodium sulfate on corn, potato, and pea starches subjected to HPP at 690 MPa. HPP in both media reduced gelatinization enthalpy and crystallinity for all starches. HPP in sodium sulfate promoted the transition of common corn and potato starches to C-type crystallites. HPP starches in sodium sulfate generally displayed lower pasting temperatures, higher peak viscosities, and greater breakdowns than in water. Alpha-amylase susceptibility increased for all HPP starches and was generally lower in sodium sulfate than in water. HPP common corn and potato starchs in sodium sulfate displayed a porous structure after α-amylase digestion. The competition of sodium sulfate for water molecules between starch helices induced variations in the properties of HPP starches with different crystalline structures.

Abstract
Swelling behavior involves the process of starch granules absorbing enough water to swell and increase the viscosity of starch suspension under hydrothermal conditions, making it one of the important aspects in starch research. The changes that starch granules undergo during the swelling process are important factors in predicting their functional properties in food processing. However, the factors that affect starch swelling and how swelling, in turn, affects the texture and digestion characteristics of starch-based foods have not been systematically summarized. Compared to its long chains, the short chains of amylose easily interact with amylopectin chains to inhibit starch swelling. Generally, reducing the swelling of starch could increase the strength of the gel while limiting the accessibility of digestive enzymes to starch chains, resulting in a reduction in starch digestibility. This article aims to conduct a comprehensive review of the mechanism of starch swelling, its influencing factors, and the relationship between swelling and the pasting, gelling, and digestion characteristics of starch. The role of starch swelling in the edible quality and nutritional characteristics of starch-based foods is also discussed, and future research directions for starch swelling are proposed.

Foods 2023; 12:4154. [PMID: 38002211 PMCID: PMC10670224 DOI: 10.3390/foods12224154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 11/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to compare the properties of inulin hydrogels obtained with different methods, e.g., the traditional-thermal method and new, non-thermal methods, used in food production, like ultrasonic, high-pressure homogenization (HPH), and high hydrostatic pressures (HHPs). It was found that each of the compared induction methods allowed for obtaining inulin hydrogels. However, the use of non-thermal induction methods allows for obtaining a gel structure faster than in the case of thermal induction. In addition, hydrogels obtained with new, non-thermal methods differ from gels obtained with thermal treatment. They were characterized by higher stability (from 1.7 percent point-of-stability parameters for HHP 150 MPa to 18.8 for HPH II cycles) and in most cases, by improved microrheological properties-lower solid-liquid balance toward the solid phase, increased elasticity and viscosity indexes, and lowering the flow index. The gels obtained with the new, non-thermal method were also characterized by a more delicate structure, including lower firmness (the differences between thermal and non-thermal inductions were from 0.73 N for HHP at 500 MPa to 2.39 N for HHP at 150 MPa) and spreadability (the differences between thermal and non-thermal inductions were from 7.60 Ns for HHP at 500 MPa to 15.08 Ns for HHP at 150 MPa). The color of ultrasound-induced inulin gels, regarding the HPH and HHP technique, was darker (the differences in the L* parameter between thermal and non-thermal inductions were from 1.92 for HHP at 500 MPa to 4.37 for 10 min ultrasounds) and with a lower a* color parameter (the differences in the a* parameter between thermal and non-thermal inductions were from 0.16 for HHP at 500 MPa to 0.39 for HPH II cycles) and b* color parameter (the differences in the b* parameter between thermal and non-thermal inductions were from 1.69 for 5 min ultrasounds to 2.68 for HPH II cycles). It was also found that among the compared induction methods, the high-pressure technique has the greatest potential for modifying the properties of the created inulin hydrogels. Thanks to its application, depending on the amount of applied pressure, it was possible to obtain gels with very different characteristics, both delicate (i.e., soft and spreadable), using HHP at 150 MPa, and hard, using HHP at 500 MPa, the closest in characteristics to gels induced with the thermal method. This may allow the properties of hydrogels to be matched to the characteristics of the food matrix being created.

Abstract
Non-thermal physical treatments has obvious advantages in regulating the structure and properties of starch compared with chemical treatment. Hance, this article summarized and compared the effects of three kinds of non-thermal physical treatments including grinding and ball milling, high hydrostatic pressure and ultrasonic on the structure, properties and chemical activity of starches from different plants. The potential applications of non-thermal physical modified starch were introduced. And strategies to solve the problems in the current research were put forward. It is found that although starch has a dense structure, the starch granules could be deformed under three kinds of non-thermal physical treatments, which could damage the granule morphology, microstructure, and crystal structure of starch, reduce particle size, increase solubility and swelling power, and promote starch gelatinization. Three kinds of non-thermal physical treated starch could be used as flocculant thickener, starch based edible films and fat substitutes. Non-thermal physical treatments caused the structure of starch to undergo three stages, which were similar to mechanochemical effects. When starch was in the stress stage and the transition stage from aggregation to agglomeration, its active sites significantly increase and move inward, ultimately leading to a significant increase in the chemical activity of starch.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions are increasingly preferred over typical surfactant-based emulsions due to several advantages, such as lower emulsifier usage, simplicity, biocompatibility, and safety. These types of emulsions are stabilized using solid particles, which produce a thick layer at the oil-water interface preventing droplets from aggregating. Starch nano-particles (SNPs) have received considerable attention as natural alternatives to synthetic stabilizers due to their unique properties. Physical formulation processes are currently preferred for SNP production since they are environmentally friendly procedures that do not require the use of chemical reagents. This review provides a thorough overview in a critical perspective of the physical processes to produce starch nano-particles used as Pickering emulsion stabilizers, fabricated by a 2-step process. Specifically, the reviewed physical approaches for nano-starch preparation include high hydrostatic pressure, high pressure homogenization, ultrasonication, milling and antisolvent precipitation. All the essential parameters used to evaluate the effectiveness of particles in stabilizing these systems are also presented in detail, including the hydrophobicity, size, and content of starch particles. Finally, this review provides the basis for future research focusing on physical nano-starch production, to ensure the widespread use of these natural stabilizers in the ever-evolving field of food technology.

Abstract
Starch is a natural polymer with a relatively simple structure and limited solubility in water. Kraft lignin (KL) is a complex biopolymer obtained as a by-product from the delignification of wood and grasses. The present work reports developing a temperature-responsive high molecular weight macromolecule from crosslinking KL and starch (KLS). The NMR and XPS analyses quantified the changes in the aromatic and anhydroglucose units of KL and starch, observing a higher content of C-O-C bonds, which confirms the presence of glycerol ether cross-linkages between starch and KL in KLS. The rheological analysis of KLS dispersions revealed the formation of a thermo-responsive structured network. The temperature-dependent water solubility and rheological characteristics of KLS were related to the presence of hydrophilic starch chains, crosslinking degree, and physicochemical characteristics of KL. The incorporation of KL and ether crosslinks increased the thermal stability of KLS. Because of its multiple functional groups and large molecular weight (3.6-4.2 × 105 g/mol) that was arranged in an extended globular shape, KLS-5 formed a gel-like structure after a heating-cooling treatment. Overall, the results confirmed that incorporating lignin in starch would fabricate sustainable materials with potentially altered applications, such as temperature-responsive hydrogels and films.
