This work focused on studying the effect of lamellae presence on the pasting profile of isolated avocado starch (C-type) obtained by a combined mechanical and ultrasonic process. Inductively Couple Plasma indicates that this starch is rich in P, K, Na, and Ca. This starch exhibits the most crystalline structure reported so far. The correlation between the morphological and structural properties throughout its pasting profile explains its apparent viscosity behavior. Granules exhibit a non-conventional irregular morphology with sizes ranging from 35 to 40 μm in their long side. DSC reveals endothermal transitions at 68 °C and 119 °C associated with the nanocrystals solvation and amylose-lipid complex, respectively. After gelatinization, the presence of lamellae originated from the partial fragmentation of the crystals. The pasting end exhibited a combined behavior between custard and hydrogel. This correlation could be considered a new methodology to understand the pasting behaviors in any starch.

The objective of the present study was to optimize an enzymatic starch extraction process from cassava roots using a polyglacturonase (PGase) from a wild yeast strain (Wickerhanomyces anomalus). The supernatant of W. anomalus culture, with PGase activity, was used as source of enzyme (enzymatic extract, EE).

Iodoform, a halogenated organic compound, has been a cornerstone in surgical practice due to its potent antiseptic and antimicrobial properties. This comprehensive review examines the historical evolution, mechanism of action, clinical applications, and safety profile of iodoform across various surgical disciplines. Historically significant formulations like Whitehead's varnish and bismuth iodoform paraffin paste (BIPP) demonstrated remarkable efficacy in wound healing during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Freshwater fish processing produces 30-70% nutrient-rich by-products, often discarded or undervalued. Grass carp by-products, rich in protein, offer potential as raw materials for fermented seasonings. This study explores the use of these by-products-specifically, minced fish and fish skin-in soybean fermentation to evaluate their effects on the quality of the resulting seasonings.

The effect of pores distribution on the multi-scale structure, enzyme accessibility, and pasting properties of the waxy maize starch granules with the same degree of hydrolysis were examined. Increased maltogenic α-amylase (MA) dosage obviously increased the shallow pores number and the roughness, whereas extended time increased the holes depth. Despite achieving the same hydrolysis degree and specific surface area, samples with numerous shallow holes exhibited a higher mass fractal dimension, a lower, peak viscosity, final viscosity and setback.
