AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigated how three types of oligosaccharides (FOS, GOS, and XOS) affect wheat starch properties under different freezing temperatures.
  • The results indicated that higher freezing temperatures led to increased porosity, particle size, and peak viscosity of wheat starch, while adding oligosaccharides decreased these properties, particularly with XOS being the most effective.
  • The findings suggest that using oligosaccharides can improve the freezing stability of starch-based foods by reducing starch retrogradation and minimizing damage from ice crystals.

Article Abstract

The effects of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), galactooligosaccharides (GOS), and xylooligosaccharides (XOS) on gelatinization, retrogradation, thermal properties and particle size of wheat starch at different freezing temperatures were studied. The results showed that the wheat starch porosity, particle size, peak viscosity increased with increasing freezing temperature. With the addition of 16% oligosaccharides to starch, the porosity, particle size, crystallinity, initial gelatinization temperature, peak value, breakdown and retrogradation viscosity of the starch granules significantly decreased in the order of XOS > GOS > FOS. However, the pasting temperature of the granules increased. The addition of oligosaccharides (especially XOS, which has the most significant effect in inhibiting starch retrogradation) can inhibit the formation of starch crystal structures to a certain extent, reduce the damage from ice crystals to starch granules and delay starch retrogradation. Therefore, functional oligosaccharides can be used as a potentially effective additive to increase freezing stability in frozen starch-based foods.

In the present study, einkorn wheat flour ( L.) was incorporated into a special dried bread (peksimet) formulation produced from sourdough breads at different concentrations (0-10-20-30-40 and 50 g 100 g) and some physicochemical and nutritional (total dietary fiber, resistant starch, glycemic index, acrylamide content) characteristics and sensory properties of the samples were investigated. The total dietary fiber content of the bread samples ranged from 3.

Whole grain flour is considered a part of a healthy diet, especially when produced with pigmented wheat (). However, the specific metabolic pathways and mechanisms by which these metabolites affect the end-use quality of pigmented wheat varieties still need to be better understood. This study examined the relationship between metabolite concentrations and the end-use quality of three wheat varieties: common wheat (CW, JM20), black wheat (BW, HJ1), and green wheat (GW, HZ148).

Characterization and In Vitro Digestion Kinetics of Purified Pulse Starches: Implications on Bread Formulation.

Whistler Center for Carbohydrate Research and Department of Food Science, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA.

This study investigated the contribution of pulse starches (PSs) to the slowly digestible starch (SDS) properties observed in pulses. Purified pulse starches from 17 commonly consumed pulses were examined, focusing on their digestion kinetics using a pancreatic alpha-amylase (PAA) and rat intestinal acetone powder (RIAP) mixture. Chickpea starch, exhibiting a slow digestibility profile, was incorporated as an ingredient to confer slow digestibility to refined wheat flour bread.
