Article Synopsis
  • * Analyzing the cakes revealed that COS improves water retention and creates a stronger protein structure, reducing the cakes' crystallinity.
  • * Using 0.8% COS leads to minimal quality changes during storage and increases the cakes' shelf life by 3-6 days, indicating COS is beneficial for gluten-free products.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined the water distribution in both high hydrostatic pressure-gelatinized rice starch (HHGS) and heat-gelatinized rice starch (HGS) at different degrees of gelatinization (DG) ranging from 20% to 100%.
  • - Results showed that hydration led to structural changes in the starch, such as collapsed crystalline lamellae and increased short chains, particularly noted at DG levels of 25% and 50%.
  • - Additionally, LF-NMR analysis determined that as DG increased, water molecules infiltrated HHGS's tighter structure, while the thermal properties differed between HHGS and HGS, with HHGS maintaining its initial gelatinization temperature compared to HGS.

The molecular and supramolecular structures of japonica and waxy rice starches under high hydrostatic pressure treatment (450 MPa) were studied and the changes in physicochemical properties were analyzed based on these structures. The molecular structures of japonica and waxy rice starch cause differences in the lamellar structure and physicochemical properties. The thickness of amorphous lamella of japonica rice starch increased at 5 min (2.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment affects the structure and properties of starch, including its thermal, pasting, and digestive behaviors.
  • At 5 minutes of treatment, changes were observed such as increased thickness of amorphous lamellae and significant decreases in certain starch chains.
  • By 20 minutes, extensive structural changes occurred, including helix dissociation and granule deformation, leading to improved pasting characteristics and increased digestibility of the starch.

The responsive patterns of phytochrome gene family members to photoperiod and abiotic stresses were comparatively analyzed and the favorable natural variation sites of these genes were identified. This would help understand the mechanism of phytochrome gene family in photoperiod-regulated growth and development and abiotic stress response. In addition, it may facilitate the molecular marker assisted selection of key traits in foxtail millet.
