AI Article Synopsis

  • Pearl millet starch underwent heat moisture treatment (HMT) at varying moisture levels (20%, 25%, 30%) for 8 hours at 110°C, resulting in significant changes to its properties.
  • Rheological properties showed decreased viscosity and increased pasting temperature post-HMT, with HMT-30 exhibiting the best shear stability.
  • Additionally, gelatinization temperature rose significantly, resistant starch content tripled in HMT-30, while swelling power and solubility decreased, and some morphological changes were observed in the starch granules.

Article Abstract

Pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides) starch was subjected to heat moisture treatment (HMT) at different moisture levels i.e., 20 % (HMT-20), 25 % (HMT-25) & 30 % (HMT-30) for 8 h at 110 °C and evaluated for changes in rheological, thermal, functional and morphological properties. Peak, breakdown, cool paste and setback viscosity decreased, while pasting temperature increased after HMT. Shear stability of HMT-30 sample was maximum (stability ratio 0.54). Highest (33.5 Pa) G' value was observed for native and lowest (14.8 Pa) for HMT-25 sample. Yield and flow point of starch gels also decreased after HMT, indicating softer gels and higher spreadability. HMT increased gelatinization temperature from 62.59 °C for native to 84.05 °C for HMT-30. Resistant starch content increased about three times in HMT-30 sample (7.07 %) as compared to native. Swelling power and solubility decreased after HMT. HMT also induced cavity and some dents on starch granules surface.

Synthesis and characteristics of type 3 resistant waxy corn starch by removal of starch granule surface proteins and heat-moisture treatment.

Food Chem

January 2025

Engineering Research Center of Bio-process, Ministry of Education, Hefei University of Technology, 193 Tunxi Road, Hefei, Anhui 230009, PR China; School of Food Science and Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, Anhui 230009, PR China.

The type 3 resistant waxy corn starch (RS3) was synthesized by removing starch granule surface proteins and subjecting it to heat-moisture treatment at -20°C, 4°C, and 25°C. Upon applying the dual modification, a significant reduction in particle size and in vitro digestion was observed, while the gelatinization enthalpy, relative crystallinity, and resistant starch content increased. Notably, RS3 treated at 4°C demonstrated the lowest digestion rate of 3.

Development of heat sealable film from tapioca and potato starch for application in edible packaging.

J Food Sci Technol

February 2025

Department of Food Technology and Nutrition, Faculty of Technology, Mahasarakham University, Maha Sarakham, 44150 Thailand.

This study aimed to fabricate edible films from tapioca (T) and potato (P) starch, assessing their physicochemical properties and biodegradation across different ratios (T100P0, T70P30, T50P50, and T30P70). The films underwent evaluation for moisture content, thickness, water vapor permeability, and color values. T100P0 and T30P70 formulations exhibited the highest film transparency at 43.

Patterns and Drivers of Surface Energy Flux in the Alpine Meadow Ecosystem in the Qilian Mountains, Northwest China.

Plants (Basel)

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Ecological Safety and Sustainable Development in Arid Lands, Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China.

Alpine meadows are vital ecosystems on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, significantly contributing to water conservation and climate regulation. This study examines the energy flux patterns and their driving factors in the alpine meadows of the Qilian Mountains, focusing on how the meteorological variables of net radiation (), air temperature, vapor pressure deficit (), wind speed (), and soil water content () influence sensible heat flux () and latent heat flux (). Using the Bowen ratio energy balance method, we monitored energy changes during the growing and non-growing seasons from 2022 to 2023.

Study on structure, properties and formation mechanism of cassava starch-faba bean protein heat-induced gel.

Int J Biol Macromol

January 2025

State Key Laboratory for Managing Biotic and Chemical Threats to the Quality and Safety of Agro-Products, Institute of Food Science, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Hangzhou 310021, China. Electronic address:

In this experiment, the effects of different concentrations of cassava starch (CS) on the gel behavior of faba bean protein (FBP) were studied, focusing on the structural characteristics, gel characteristics and physical and chemical characteristics of the gel system. Specifically, with the increase of CS concentration from 4 % to 12 %, the morphology of the sample changed from fluid to gel solid. From the molecular structure, different concentrations of CS affected the secondary and tertiary structures of FBP protein, which made aromatic amino acids move to the surface of protein and promoted the transformation from α-helix to β-sheet.
