NiFeCO(3) hydrotalcites with Ni/Fe molar ratio of 3 were synthesized by co-precipitation method at constant pH, followed by hydrothermal treatment at various temperatures 85-180 degrees C for 3-360h. The obtained materials were characterized by XRD analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM and TEM microscopy, TGA and BET techniques. The resulting materials were found to be similar to the hydrotalcite with a well-defined hexagonal morphology of crystallites. The hydrothermal treatment and aging time increases the platelet sizes and decreases the surface area. XRD analysis showed the formation of sharper and intense peaks, which might indicate the larger crystallites size of LDH as well as higher crystallinity. Furthermore, textural studies revealed influence of aging time and temperature on the properties of the crystalline phase. The prolonged time tends to form additional products, identified as NiFe(2)O(4) spinel and NiO nickel oxide. The effect of hydrothermal treatment temperature on the kinetics of dye removal has been explored. It was found that the percentage color removal increases with increasing hydrothermal treatment temperature up to 140 degrees C and aging time up to 4 days. Furthermore, the color removal decreases with increasing hydrothermal treatment temperature up to 140-180 degrees C and prolonged aging time.

Insights into the regulation mechanisms of dual hydrothermal treatment on the structure and digestive characteristics of A- and B-type wheat starch granules.

Food Res Int

Hydrothermal treatment is a physical modification technology to alter starch structures for the production of resistant starch (RS). However, the underlying regulation mechanism of the multiscale structure and digestive properties of starch by dual hydrothermal synergistic treatment remains unclear. To solve this problem, A- and B-type wheat starch granules (AWS and BWS) were separated and subjected to toughening and heat-moisture synergistic treatment (THT) with various moisture content (10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 25 %).

Laboratorio de Investigación en Funcionalidad y Tecnología de Alimentos (LIFTA), Departamento de Ciencia y Tecnología, Universidad Nacional de Quilmes, Bernal, Argentina.

Quinoa flour due to its nutritional and sensory characteristics could be used as an ingredient to improve the nutritional and technological properties of gluten-free bread. Furthermore, the application of hydrothermal processes such as extrusion can enhance their native properties. Hence, our objective was to evaluate how the incorporation of extruded quinoa flours (EQFs) affects the technological, sensory and nutritional quality of gluten-free bread.
