The effects of dynamic ultra high-pressure microfluidization on the structure of waxy rice starch solutions (6%) were analyzed using SEM, UV-Vis spectra, polarized light microscopy, and X-ray diffraction spectra. The results showed that: SEM graphs demonstrated that the crystal structure of waxy rice starch under different pressure treatment was destroyed with different degrees and impacted into flake up to 160 MPa; from the ultraviolet-visible spectrum we know the reduction in the blue iodine value and the decrease in the amylopectin content, which illustrated that the structure of waxy rice starch was fractured; polarized microscopic images showed that the polarization crosses of starch molecules became misty with the pressure increasing, and most of starch molecules lost polarization cross when the pressure reached 160 MPa; X-ray diffraction spectra indicated that relative crystallinity began to decline at 120 MPa with pressure treatment, and the decreased amplitude was slightly lower.

The in vitro model is widely preferred for digestion research due to its simplicity, reproducibility, and ethical advantages. However, the differences between in vivo and in vitro digestion present challenges. This study first developed an in vitro oral processing system to explore the influence of saliva volume and chewing time on the physicochemical properties of japonica rice (JR), indica rice (IR), and waxy rice (WR).

The use of new technologies that allow for improving conventional food preservation processes is what the industry has been adopting in recent decades, with high-intensity ultrasound (US) and the application of cryoprotectant agents (cryogels) being those that have become more relevant today. For this reason, in this study, cuts of pork frozen in liquid nitrogen with and without waxy starch cryogel and thawed under controlled conditions in water immersion and with US were used, evaluating thermal parameters such as the initial zone and the melting rate of ice crystals and quality parameters such as pH, water holding capacity (WHC), microstructure, color profile, shear force, and surface changes. It was shown that the addition of cryogel modifies the initial fusion zone, that US-assisted thawing increases the fusion rate, and that both factors influence the quality parameters.

The application of flour is determined by the composition of its starch and storage proteins. Previously isolated diploid wheat is known to be amylose-free and possesses the same amylopectin structure as the wild-type. To reveal its characteristics, starch, protein, lipid, fiber, gluten, and allergen contents and rheological properties were analyzed and compared to its parental wild-type diploid wheat and commercially available hexaploid wheats.

The formation of resistant starch type 5 (RS5), primarily associated with amylose-lipid complexes, is typically attributed to starches with high-amylose content due to their affinity for lipid interactions. Recently, studies have also investigated the potential of amylopectin-rich starches to form amylopectin-lipid complexes (ALCs), expanding RS5 sources. This study explores the capacity of waxy corn starch (WS), which is rich in amylopectin, to develop ALCs with oleic acid (10% /) under different thermal and mechanical conditions.

Background: Surfactants regulate the interaction between pesticide droplets and the surfaces of plants on which they are sprayed. The influence of the key structural functional groups of surfactants on the interaction between pesticide droplets and hydrophobic pear leaves has not been explored. The behavior of Imidacloprid (Imid) droplets regulated by cationic quaternary ammonium surfactants with different structures on hydrophobic pear leaves and their bouncing dynamics were studied.
