Insight into the effect of garlic peptides on the physicochemical and anti-staling properties of wheat starch.

The staling of wheat starch in storage seriously damages the quality of starch-based foods, and how to delay the staling has become a topic focus. To solve the problem, this study analyzed the effect of garlic peptides on the physical and retrogradation behaviors of wheat starch during storage. The rheological, pasting, swelling properties, molecular order, water migration, and microstructure of wheat starch gels were evaluated.

Effect of mulberry leaf polysaccharides on the baking and staling properties of frozen dough bread.

Background: Deterioration in frozen dough bread easily occurs in store, resulting in tremendous economic waste. Therefore, it is imperative to find natural additives to improve storage staling. The effects of mulberry leaf polysaccharides (MLP) were studied in terms of baking, retrogradation and microstructural aspects in frozen dough bread.
