This study presents the isolation of SNC from sago starch and its performance as proficient particle emulsifier. It highlights the impact of SNC on the stability and rheological properties of oil-in-water (o/w) emulsions. The percentage yield of the SNC obtained was equivalent to 25 ± 0.1% (w/w) with particle diameters ranging from 25 to 100 nm. A series of Pickering emulsion at different ratios of oil (5%-35% v/v) and SNC (1%-4% w/v) was prepared for further investigations. The mean droplet diameter of emulsions obtained was ranged from 19.12 to 35.96 μm, confirming the effects of both SNC and oil content on the droplet's diameter distribution. Formulations with 4.0 wt% of SNC exhibited the maximum stability against coalescence. Results obtained have justified that the SNC can be used as an alternative solid emulsifier in producing stable emulsion with desired properties for various applications.

Concentrated suspensions of Brownian and non-Brownian particles display distinctive rheological behavior highly dependent on shear rate and shear stress. Cornstarch suspensions, composed of starch particles from corn plants, served as a model for concentrated non-Brownian suspensions, demonstrating discontinuous shear thickening (DST) and dynamic shear jamming (SJ). However, starch particles from other plant sources have not yet been investigated, despite their different sizes and shapes.

BaqA is a raw starch degrading α-amylase produced by the marine bacterium MKSC 6.2, associated with soft corals. This α-amylase belongs to a new subfamily Glycoside Hydrolases (GH) 13_45 which has several unique characteristics, namely, a pair of tryptophan residues Trp201 and Trp202, a distinct LPDIx signature in the Conserved Sequence Region-V (CSR-V), and an elongated C-terminus containing five aromatic residues.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored using Hylocereus polyrhizus peel (HPP) as an eco-friendly reinforcement in thermoplastic sago starch/agar composites (TPSS/agar) to improve mechanical and thermal properties.
- Incorporating 20 wt% HPP notably enhanced tensile strength and impact resistance, with measurable improvements in composite properties, while also showing a reduction in density.
- The findings suggest that TPSS/agar/HPP composites are compostable and environmentally friendly, indicating their potential for various sustainable applications.

Materials based on highly reactive α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) powder were developed and evaluated. Furthermore, the impact of different polymeric additives, such as citrus pectin or polyacrylamide (PAAM) modified with sago starch, neem flower, or rambutan peel, on the physiochemical and biological properties of the developed materials was assessed. The addition of modified PAAM shortened the setting process of bone cements and decreased their compressive strength.

α-Amylase plays a crucial role in the industrial degradation of starch. The genus Jeotgalibacillus of the underexplored marine bacteria family Caryophanaceae has not been investigated in terms of α-amylase production. Herein, we report the comprehensive analysis of an α-amylase (AmyJM) from Jeotgalibacillus malaysiensis D5 (= DSM28777 = KCTC33550).
