Abstract
Quercetin (Q) has many potential health benefits, but its low stability limits its use in functional foods and pharmaceuticals. The low stability of quercetin is a challenge that needs to be addressed to fully realize its therapeutic potential. The purpose of this study was therefore to design a proper carrier based on porous starch (PS) and inulin (IN) in order to improve the stability of Q. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images denoted that the Q molecules were adsorbed in the PS pores and partially adhered to the surface of the granules. Both types of the wall material could remarkably enhance the protection of Q against thermal and light degradation. The retention index of Q under different environmental conditions was higher for the PS:IN-Q than PS-Q. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed that Q interacted with the wall materials through non-covalent bonds. X-ray diffraction (XRD) also confirmed the encapsulation of Q in the wall materials. The bonding between Q and the hydrogen groups of starch compacted the crystalline regions and increased the relative crystallinity in PS-Q and PS:IN-Q. The DPPH and ABTS scavenging activities of the microcapsules containing the PS and IN were higher than those of free Q. Examination of the in-vitro release profile indicated that the Q release rate was lower from the PS:IN-Q microcapsules (21.6%) than from the PS-Q ones (33.7%). Our findings highlight the significant potential of this novel biopolymer mixture (PS/IN) as a promising wall material for the protection and delivery of bioactive compounds.

Abstract
In this study, a new carrier for loading piperine was prepared using pepper starch, and its interaction mechanism was investigated. The porous pepper starch-piperine complex (PPS-PIP) showed higher loading efficiency (76.15 %) compared to the porous corn starch-piperine complex (PCS-PIP (52.34 %)). This may be ascribed to the hemispherical shell structure of porous pepper starch (PPS) compared to the porous structure of porous corn starch (PCS) based on the SEM result. PPS-PIP had smaller particle size (10.53 μm), higher relative crystallinity (38.95 %), and better thermal stability (87.45 °C) than PCS-PIP (17.37 μm, 32.17 %, 74.35 °C). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results implied that piperine not only forms a complex with amylose but may also be physically present in porous starch. This was demonstrated by the short-range order and X-ray type. Molecular dynamics simulations confirmed that hydrogen bonding is the primary interaction between amylose and piperine. Besides the formation of the amylose-piperine complex, some of the piperine is also present in physical form.

Abstract
Porous starch (PS) is a modified starch with commendable biodegradable and adsorption properties. PS exhibits poor thermal stability, and the aqueous solution casting method is conventionally used for PS-activated packaging films. This approach limits the large-scale production of films and makes it difficult to play the functions of porous pores. In this study, PS was prepared by enzymatic digestion combined with freeze-drying and adsorbed with clove essential oil (CEO) after cross-linking with sodium trimetaphosphate. Subsequently, a novel PLA/PBAT/TPS/ScPS-CEO sustained release active packaging film was prepared by blending PLA, PBAT, TPS, and ScPS-CEO using industrial melt extrusion. Compared with PS, ScPS effectively slowed down the release of CEO from the film, with the maximum release of active substances at equilibrium increasing by approximately 100 %, which significantly enhanced the persistence of the antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. The polylactic acid/poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/thermoplastic starch/trimetaphosphate-crosslinked porous starch incorporated with clove essential oil (PLA/PBAT/TPS/ScPS-CEO) film could reduce the proteolysis, lipid oxidation and microbial growth of salmon, extending its shelf life by approximately 100 % at 4 °C. These results indicate that the ScPS can be used in fresh packaging material in practical applications.

Abstract
To explore how chitosan-modified rice porous starch-loaded catechin (CT@RPS/CS) protects HT-29 cells exposed to lead ions. METHOD The HT-29 cells were treated differently based on their grouping. The effect of CT@RPS/CS on lead-induced toxicity was evaluated using cell proliferation, apoptosis, oxidative stress index, and cytokine tests. RESULTS CT@RPS/CS did not affect the activity, cell apoptosis, oxidative stress level, and related cytokines of HT-29 cells. After exposure to lead, CT@RPS/CS has the potential to enhance cellular activity, minimize apoptosis, and decrease the level of oxidative stress. DISCUSSION CT@RPS/CS not only has no toxicity to cells but also adsorbs lead ions, which protects cells.

Abstract
Exposing the hydrated-soft-starch matrix of intact grain or reconstituted flour dough to a high-temperature-short-time (HTST) leads to rapid vapor generation that facilitates high-pressure build-up in its elastic matrix linked to large deformation and expansion. The expanded starch matrix at high temperatures dries up quickly by flash vaporization of water, which causes loss of its structural flexibility and imparts a porous and rigid structure of the expanded porous starch matrix (EPSM). EPSM, with abundant pores in its construction, offers adsorptive effectiveness, solubility, swelling ability, mechanical strength, and thermal stability. It can be a sustainable and easy-to-construct alternative to porous starch (PS) in food and pharmaceutical applications. This review is a comparative study of PS and EPSM on their preparation methods, structure, and physicochemical properties, finding compatibility and addressing challenges in recommending EPSM as an alternative to PS in adsorbing, dispersing, stabilizing, and delivering active ingredients in a controlled and efficient way.

Abstract
Oil structuring from porous starch is a potential alternative for the industrial production of powdered oil, but their relationship between starch multi-scale structure and oil adsorption characteristics was not clear. This study compared the role of multi-scale structure of porous starch (PS) prepared by normal and waxy maize starch in the oil adsorption. Waxy maize porous starch exhibited higher oil adsorption capacity (32.43 %-98.71 %) and more oil distributed on the surface of granules than normal maize porous starch, resulting from the more pores, larger specific surface area (1.01-1.53 m2/g), and pore size (8.45-9.32 nm). The enzymolysis time of native starch dominated oil distribution, leading to different granule adhesion and aggregation state. Pearson correlation analysis further showed oil adsorption capacity was negatively correlated with particle size, but positively correlated with enzymolysis rate and specific surface area of PS. The formation of powdered oil was mainly through the physical adsorption, including surface adsorption and pore adsorption. These findings could provide a promising route for the preparation of powdered oil with controlled multi-scale structure of PS.

Abstract
In this work, critical melting (CM) combined with freeze-thawing treatment (FT, freezing at -20 ℃ and -80 ℃, respectively) was used to prepare porous starch. The results showed that CM combined with the slow freezing rate (-20 ℃) can prepare porous starch with characteristics of grooves and cavities, while combined with the rapid freezing rate (-80 ℃) can prepare with holes and channels, especially after repeating FT cycles. Compared with the native counterpart, the specific surface area, pore volume, and average diameter of CMFT-prepared porous starch were significantly increased to 4.07 m2/g, 7.29 cm3/g × 10-3, and 3.57 nm, respectively. CMFT significantly increased the thermal stability of starch, in which the To, Tp, and Tc significantly increased from 63.32, 69.62, and 72.90 (native) to ∼69, 72, and 76 °C, respectively. CMFT significantly increased water and oil absorption of porous starch from 91.20 % and 72.00 % (native) up to ∼163 % and 94 %, respectively. Moreover, CMFT-prepared porous starch had a more ordered double-helical structure, which showed in the significantly increased relative crystallinity, semi-crystalline lamellae structure, and the proportion of the double helix structure of starch. The synergistic effect of melting combined with ice recrystallization can be used as an effective way to prepare structure-stabilized porous starch.

Abstract
We prepared one type of bilayer microgels for oral administration with three effects: pH responsiveness, time lag, and colon enzyme degradation. Combined with the dual biological effects of curcumin (Cur) for reducing inflammation and promoting repair of colonic mucosal injury, targeted colonic localization and release of Cur according to the colonic microenvironment were enhanced. The inner core, derived from guar gum and low-methoxyl pectin, afforded colonic adhesion and degradation behavior; the outer layer, modified by alginate and chitosan via polyelectrolyte interaction, achieved colonic localization. The porous starch (PS)-mediated strong adsorption allowed Cur loading in inner core to achieve a multifunctional delivery system. In vitro, the formulations exhibited good bioresponses at different pH conditions, potentially delaying Cur release in the upper gastrointestinal tract. In vivo, dextran sulfate sodium-induced ulcerative colitis (UC) symptoms were significantly alleviated after oral administration, accompanied by reduced levels of inflammatory factors. The formulations facilitated colonic delivery, allowing Cur accumulation in colonic tissue. Moreover, the formulations could alter gut microbiota composition in mice. During Cur delivery, each formulation increased species richness, decreased pathogenic bacterial content, and afforded synergistic effects against UC. These PS-loaded bilayer microgels, exhibiting excellent biocompatibility, multi-bioresponsiveness, and colon targeting, could be beneficial in UC therapy, allowing development into a novel oral formulation.

Abstract
Intermolecular interactions play a significant role on the physicochemical properties and digestibility of starchy foods. This study investigated the covalent and non-covalent interactions between vanillic acid (VA) and porous starch (PS) as well as their effects on digestibility using solid-state NMR. VA-PS conjugates and mixtures were synthesized and characterized using 1H NMR, FT-IR, SEM and XRD. 13C NMR peaks at 163 ppm and FT-IR signals at 1737 cm-1 indicated the formation of ester bond in VA-PS conjugates. While differences between covalent and non-covalent interactions were also probed by solid-state NMR. The specific binding sites between VA and PS were subsequently identified by 1H13C HETCOR spectra before assessing the impact of covalent and non-covalent interactions on digestibility through an in vitro digestion test. The results revealed 13C chemical shifts of about 2.0 ppm, indicating stronger intermolecular interactions, and reduced mobility of the VA-PS conjugate due to its covalent bonding. Overall, the results showed that the VA-PS conjugate, characterized by stronger covalent interactions, exhibited superior effects in inhibiting starch digestibility compared with non-covalent interactions.

Abstract
Antioxidant capacity of hydroxycinnamic acids-modified starch mainly depends on their chemical structure. Herein, cinnamic acid as well as meta-substituted and para-substituted cinnamic acid were selected for esterification with porous starch (labelled as CA@PS, m-CA@PS and p-CA@PS), with the successful formation of porous starch (labelled as PS) esters then confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C solid-state NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. Three PS esters with almost same degrees of substitution (DS) were obtained, and antioxidant assays, including DPPH radical scavenging, reducing power and hydroxyl radical scavenging tests, were subsequently used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the esterified PS. Overall, CA@PS showed weak antioxidant activity because of the absence of phenolic hydroxy, while p-CA@PS displayed better antioxidant capacity. Because its conjugated structure offered the stronger electron-donating effect, that could enhance antioxidant capacity. Therefore, antioxidant capacity depended significantly on overall chemical structure, including numbers and substitution positions of phenolic hydroxy groups.

Abstract
A dual-functional food-grade microcapsule, which was constructed by caffeic acid and porous starch was obtained. Caffeic acid modified porous starch (CA-PS) was accordingly synthesized successfully by esterification. Carbonyl signal observed by 13C solid state NMR (170 ppm) and FT-IR (1745 cm-1), indicating the formation of ester bond. BET of CA-PS was determined as 44.8 m2/g by N2 adsorption analysis. The results proved CA-PS has both excellent adsorption and antioxidant activity. Furthermore, it has been applied for encapsulation of linoleic acid (LA) to prevent its degradation effectively, because LA adsorbed in porous adsorbents without antioxidant activity may still suffer serious oxidation. Besides, 1H NMR Integral of LA did not show a significant decay. This observation demonstrated CA-PS indeed has the better performance on protection of LA than PS. We expect this work will boost research on designing and employing multi-functional starchy materials for further applications.

Abstract
The combined effect of cold plasma treatment and enzymatic hydrolysis was investigated on the physicochemical and microstructural properties of porous corn starch. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images depicted that the combined treatment led to the creation of deeper pores on the surface of starch granules. The combined treatment indicated the highest swelling power (19.49 g/g), solubility (10.08 %), specific surface area (2.97 m2/g) and total pore volume (10.47 cm3/g). According to the X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), the combined treatment, compared with the enzymatic hydrolysis, decreased the starch crystallinity, the order of the double-helix structure, and the starch gelatinization enthalpy. The rapid visco analyzer (RVA) pasting profile revealed that the combined treatment elevated the breakdown and setback viscosities. This study indicated that cold plasma pretreatment, as a green non-thermal technology, facilitated the performance of enzymes, resulting in the production of a porous starch with a higher absorption capacity.

Abstract
Starch is widely used to prepare biodegradable films due to its superior biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and renewability. In this work, a novel K+/carrageenan porous-starch/casein gel film with high oil absorption was prepared using modified porous starch. Optimal gel stability and uniformity were obtained when adding 10 mg/mL k-carrageenan and 2 mg/mL K+ to 2 mg/mL microgels, with significantly reduced crystallinity and elasticity and increased tensile strength. The concentration of k-carrageenan was the main factor affecting gel strength and the hydrophilic and mechanical properties of the film. In addition, the film-forming solution showed excellent fluidity and spreading typical of non-Newtonian fluids. The film also exhibited a highly porous structure, as visualized by SEM and AFM, in line with a cumulative oil absorption rate of 87.5 % within 20 min, which was significantly higher than that obtained with glutinous rice starch. In conclusion, reinforcement of starch-based microgels as described in this study can maximize the film's adsorption performance and mechanical properties, with promising applications in skin care and beauty products.

Abstract
Slow release active packaging films can realize the sustained release of active agents and prolong the shelf life of food. For this aim, a novel slow release active polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film was developed by using solution casting method. With porous starch loaded with tea polyphenols (PSTP) as core material and maltodextrin (MD) as wall material, PSTP@MD microcapsules were prepared using freeze drying method and used as slow release carrier of tea polyphenols (TP) in the active films. The interactions between PSTP@MD microcapsules and PVA molecular chains were physical interactions. In addition, the relative crystallinity of the slow release active films was reduced to 23.74 %. The addition of PSTP@MD microcapsules can enhance the ductility of active films and reduce the water content and swelling degree of active films by 46.74 % and 54.38 %, respectively. Moreover, the thermal stability, water vapor and ultraviolet barrier properties of active films were promoted. The transparency and antioxidant activity of active films was high, and the radical scavenging activity of active films was 58 %. The encapsulation of TP with PSTP@MD microcapsules can realize the slow release of TP. The slow release active films had antioxidant activity and sustained release properties, which could be used as an active packaging film to extend the shelf life of food.

Abstract
The current work aimed to enhance the oral bioavailability of water-insoluble drug Artemisinin (ART) by the inclusion of ART with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and then loaded with porous starch (PS). The preparation conditions of ART HP-β-CD inclusion complex loaded with PS (AHPS) were optimized according to drug loading (DL) and entrapment efficiency (EE). The properties of AHPS were characterized by optical and thermodynamic methods. ART was linked by hydrogen bond to HP-β-CD to form hydrophilic supramolecules, which are loaded into PS under the action of hydrogen bond. The maximum DL and EE of AHPS were about 16.51% and 67.26%, respectively. Then we investigated the physicochemical properties and antimalarial activity of AHPS. The solubility and bioavailability of AHPS at 48 h were higher than ART and market ART piperaquine tablets (APT), and showed better antimalarial activity in vitro and vivo. It provides a new idea for the development and application of fat-soluble drug.

Abstract
The objective was to investigate the effect of synergistic enzymatic treatment on the properties and digestibility of a novel C-type lotus seed porous starch (LPS). Scanning electron microscopy showed that the densest and most complete pores were formed on the surface of LPS when the concentration of enzymes added was 1.5% (LS-1.5E). With increases in enzyme addition, the oil and water absorption of the porous starch increased and reached maxima at 1.5% of enzyme. Increased in the specific surface area, total pore volume and average pore diameter of LPS were determined by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, while when the enzymes exceeded 1.5%, there were no significant changes. Compared to lotus seed starch (LS), the particle size of LPS also decreased. With the increases in enzyme addition, LPS exhibited higher relative crystallinity and ordering structure by XRD and FTIR. The results by SAXS confirmed that LPS had higher ordered semi-crystalline lamellar and denser lamellar structure compared to LS. Low-field 1H NMR spectroscopy indicated that the proportion of bound water in LPS increased, while the proportion of bulk water decreased. Moreover, the degree of hydrolysis of LPS was lower than that of LS, and the content of rapidly digestible starch decreased, while the content of slowly digestible starch and resistant starch increased with the enzyme addition, which was consistent with the structural properties.

Abstract
Phloretin loaded porous starch (Ph-PS) were prepared for its application in food. The effects of Ph-PS in vitro release and its ability against AAPH-induced oxidative stress in vivo zebrafish model were investigated. Ph-PS was prepared by absorption method, the physical and chemical characterization showed that PS decreased the crystallinity of Ph obviously. Ph-PS exhibited higher release amount and faster release rate of Ph compared to free Ph in vitro release study. What's more, the effect of Ph-PS reduced ROS generation and lipid peroxidation was better than that of free Ph in zebrafish model. These findings suggest Ph-PS is a new and simple strategy to improve dissolution rate and antioxidant ability of Ph.

Abstract
Traditional bioactive substances are often limited in practical application due to their poor stability and low solubility. Therefore, it is imperative to develop biocompatible high loading microgel carriers. In this study, a novel type of casein-porous starch microgel was prepared under ultra-high-pressure homogenization, by using porous starch with the honeycomb three-dimensional network porous structure. Molecular interaction force analysis and thermodynamic analysis showed that electrostatic interaction played a major role in the formation of microgels. Circular dichroism and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that homogenization and pH were the main factors, which affected the formation and structural stability of microgels. Compared with casein-glutinous rice starch microgels, the encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of phycocyanin in casein-porous starch microgels were increased by 77.27% and 135.10%, respectively. Thus, casein-porous starch microgels could not only achieve a sustained release effect, but also effectively transport phycocyanin to the gastrointestinal tract of zebrafish, while achieving good fluorescence imaging in vivo. Ultimately, the prepared casein-porous starch microgels could enrich the nanocarriers material, and contribute to the research of safe and effective fluorescent imaging materials.

Abstract
A novel active food packaging film was developed by casting a corn starch/tea polyphenol (TP)-loaded porous starch (PS, obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis) film forming solution, with the latter helping to regulate the slow release of TP. Results showed that PS had a favorable TP adsorption capacity, and the casted films had a homogeneous distribution of the formulation components. Likewise, the active films had good mechanical properties, UV barrier properties, thermal stability, and excellent antioxidant properties. The slow release of TP from the films was sustained, which is a desired characteristic for extending the protection afforded by the active film to the food under consideration.

Abstract
For investigation of antioxidant capacity relationship, four cinnamic acids (CNAs), including cinnamic (CA), ferulic (FA), p-coumaric (p-CA) and sinapic (SA) acids, were selected to modify porous starch (PS) with different degrees of substitution by esterification, respectively. The ester linkage of CNAs modified PS was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C solid-state NMR and FT-IR. The porous structure was maintained after esterification. Three in vitro antioxidant assays were applied to measure antioxidant capacities. The order of antioxidant capacity was SA@PS > FA@PS > p-CA@PS > CA@PS, due to the presence of phenolic hydroxyl groups with hydrogen donating abilities. Besides electron-donating group on ortho or para positions the benzene ring further enhances the hydrogen donating ability and the stability of hydroxyl radical. This study not only investigated the antioxidant mechanism of CNA modified starch derivatives but probed the way for synthesis of biodegradable antioxidant materials for the food industries.

Abstract
Porous starch (PS) was used as the core material carrier to adsorb fennel essential oil (FEO). Using sodium alginate (SA)-chitosan (CS) as the wall material and glutaraldehyde as the curing cross-linking agent, CS/SA/PS-FEO microcapsules were successfully prepared by polyelectrolyte complex coagulation method. The formation process, structural properties and release behavior of CS/SA/PS-FEO microcapsules were analyzed. The results showed that the essential oil was encapsulated in the form of micro-capsules according to infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. In open and closed systems, the 16-day cumulative release rate of FEO obtained was 70.62% and 43.87%, respectively indicating that the prepared CS/SA/PS-FEO microcapsules had a good sustained-release ability. The fennel essential oil micro-capsules exhibited good antibacterial and antioxidant activities, delayed the oxidation of fat and protein, reduced the total viable counts, total volatile-base nitrogen and methemoglobin. The textural property and status of water (analyzed by NMR) suggested that the quality of the meat can be maintained for an extended period by incorporating the CS/SA/PS-FEO microcapsules in the minced pork meat.

Abstract
In the present study, the silibinin (SLB) was loaded into porous starch (PS) in the form of nanoparticles (SNPS) by the liquid antisolvent precipitation (LAP) method, so as to improve its solubility and bioavailability. Firstly, the different experimental parameters on drug loading (DL) of the SLB in the LAP process were optimized through the single-factor experiments. Under the optimum conditions, the DL and the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of the SNPS were 9.49 ± 0.37 % and 89.93 ± 0.64 %, respectively. Compared with free SLB and SLB nanoparticles (SN), the SNPS had a higher solubility, and was about 180.81 ± 5.32 μg/mL in artificial gastric juice (AGJ) and was about 88.91 ± 4.14 μg/mL in artificial intestinal juice (AIJ), respectively. The in vitro release study demonstrated a slow and sustained ± release of SLB from the SNPS with the SN and free SLB as controls. The pharmacokinetic results showed that the Cmax and AUC(0-t) of the SNPS (87.71 ± 7.24 μg/L, 439.55 ± 8.76 μg/L*h) increased when compared with the SN (60.31 ± 8.98 μg/L, 206.51 ± 12.24 μg/L*h) and free SLB (26.08 ± 1.43 μg/L, 102.63 ± 7.15 μg/L*h), showing its ability to improve SLB's pharmacokinetic properties.

Abstract
For the first time, hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe NMR measurements are utilized to explore porous structures of porous starch (PS) successfully. Some micropores resided inside the mesopore walls of PS were detected by variable temperature (VT) HP 129Xe NMR, and the pore sizes of micropores were also estimated using the empirical relationship. Furthermore, the interconnectivity of pores was investigated in detail by two-dimensional (2D) exchange spectroscopy (EXSY). The exchange process of xenon from microporosity within pore walls to the free gas space was occurred at the mixing time of ≥12 ms at 173 K, which indicated the well interconnectivity between micropores and mesopores. This study not only exhibits a new approach for investigation of pores and hollows of PS, but also provides a better understanding of porous structures for rational design in adsorbing functional compounds.

Abstract
Starch bio-polymer is a promising material in controlled release formulations for Meloidogyne incognita management. The porous starch and starch citrate bio-polymer was prepared and characterised with FTIR, SEM and TGA. The SEM revealed highly stabilized biopolymers and the TGA showed increased thermal stability of the materials, while the FTIR confirmed successful synthesis of the bio-polymer. Effective control was achieved with porous starch citrate.
The undesirable environmental impacts of inappropriate application of pesticides have brought about research into new matrices for controlled release of pesticides. Porous starch citrate biopolymer was designed for the release of carbofuran in this experiment and characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) for functional group, surface morphology and thermal stability properties respectively. The SEM revealed highly stabilized porous starch citrate biopolymers with porous structures and gradients suitable for controlled release studies.

TGA showed an increase in the thermal stability after citric acid modification with one-step decomposition from 290 ᵒC to 500 ᵒC. From Korsemeyer-Peppas model, the carbofuran-porous starch citrate (CBFN/PRS/STH/CTRT) followed a lower diffusion release model with gradual increment in all the quantity of carbofuran loaded. An accelerated rate of diffusion percentage was seen in direct application of carbofuran. Egg hatch and mortality of juveniles were recorded on daily basis for seven days. Direct application of carbofuran (CBFN/DRT) and carbofuran-porous starch citrate biopolymer gave the best results with significant (p < 0.05) reduction in egg hatch and higher percentage mortality. The rate of release of carbofuran from the starch citrate bio polymer matrix was significantly lower than the direct application, and in spite of the slow rate of release, higher juvenile mortality and reduction in egg hatch was achieved.

Abstract
In this work, paclitaxel was loaded into porous starch in the form of nanoparticles (PNPS), and the properties of PNPS were investigated by using raw paclitaxel and the system of paclitaxel directly loaded into porous starch (PPS) as control groups. According to the tested results, the drug loading (DL) and encapsulation efficiency (EE) of PNPS were 14.13%±0.27% and 73.92%±0.54%, higher than that of PPS (9.79%±0.31% and 71.17%±0.67%) respectively. Compared with raw paclitaxel and PPS, PNPS exhibited the more prominent dissolution rate and bioavailability, in which the bioavailability of PPS and PNPS were 2.94 and 5.42 times of that of raw paclitaxel respectively. In addition, the IC50 values of raw paclitaxel, PPS and PNPS on Lewis Lung Carcinoma (LLC) cells were 17,703.41±15.76μM, 95.10±5.32μM and 85.68±7.38μM respectively. Furthermore, the residues of acetone in PPS and PNPS were less than the ICH limit for acetone in class III solvents. To summarize, the preparation of PNPS was a potential method to improve the dissolution and bioavailability of paclitaxel.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to improvement of adsorption capacity of porous starch (PS) by incorporation of halloysite nanotube (HNT). PS/HNT carrier was synthesized through the solvent exchange method. Various fabrication approaches for PS were introduced and different ethanol ratio (40, 60, 80, 100%), HNT concentration (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 mg/mL) and drying method (oven, freeze dryer and microwave) were applied. The results indicated that high ratio of ethanol created larger pores and also the best results were obtained from freeze-dried samples (p < 0.05). Incorporation of HNT could further improve the adsorption capacity. However, the best oil and water adsorption capacity were related to PS alone. The nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement and scanning electron microscopy elucidated the porous structure of samples. The experimental data were fitted successfully by the Langmuir model rather than Freundlich isotherm. Also PS/HNT had higher apparent density and more negative zeta potential rather than PS. However, the DSC results showed the similar thermal patterns for PS and PS/HNT.

Abstract
A novel process was developed for encapsulation of astaxanthin from Phaffia rhodozyma. The yeast cells were disrupted by glass beads and the high shearing force partially emulsified the astaxanthin in aqueous phase. The enzymolysis method was then adopted to prepare the yeast extract for a full use of the cells. The gelatin and porous starch were used to microencapsulate the emulsified astaxanthin. Under optimized conditions, the recovery of amino nitrogen and solid reached 3.68 ± 0.32% and 49.22 ± 2.34%, respectively. The microencapsulation conditions were optimized through orthogonal experiment and the encapsulation efficiency, loading astaxanthin, and amino-nitrogen reached 88.56%, 1.55 mg/g, and 1.35 ± 0.14%, respectively. The water solubility of microcapsules reached 81.5 ± 0.35%. Color and storage stability analysis showed that microencapsulation of astaxanthin possessed higher thermal stability. The results demonstrated that the established process was effective and practical.

Abstract
Studies on porous starch have been directed to explore different industrial applications as bio-adsorbents of a variety of compounds. However, the analysis of starch digestibility is essential for food application. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of porous structure on in vitro starch digestibility. Porous starches were obtained using a range of concentrations of amyloglucosidase (AMG), α-amylase (AM), cyclodextrin-glycosyltransferase (CGTase) or branching enzyme (BE). Porous starches exhibited major content of digestible starch (DS) that increased with the intensity of the enzymatic treatment, and very low amount of resistant starch (RS). Porous starches behaved differently during in vitro hydrolysis depending on their enzymatic treatment. AMG was the unique treatment that increased the digestive amylolysis and estimated glycemic index, whereas AM, CGTase and BE reduced them. A significant relationship was found between the pore size and the severity of the amylolysis, suggesting that a specific pore size is required for the accessibility of the digestive amylase. Therefore, pore size in the starch surface was a limiting factor for digestion of starch granules.

Abstract
Porous starch xanthate (PSX) and porous starch citrate (PSC) were prepared in anticipation of the attached xanthate and carboxylate groups respectively forming chelation and electrostatic interactions with heavy metal ions in the subsequent adsorption process. The lead(II) ion was selected as the model metal and its adsorption by PSX and PSC was characterized. The adsorption capacity was highly dependent on the carbon disulfide/starch and citric acid/starch mole ratios used during preparation. The adsorption behaviors of lead(II) ion on PSXs and PSCs fit both the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity from the Langmuir isotherm equation reached 109.1 and 57.6 mg/g for PSX and PSC when preparation conditions were optimized, and the adsorption times were just 20 and 60 min, respectively. PSX and PSC may be used as effective adsorbents for removal of heavy metals from contaminated liquid.
