The elucidation of multi-scale structural variation and oxidation reaction mechanism of ozone oxidized waxy rice starch molecules remains a big challenge, limiting its development of intensive processing. In the present work, the changes in the structure of waxy rice starch after ozone treatment were systematically researched by various characterization methods. The study has shown that with the increase in ozone oxidation time, the granules of oxidized starch were polygons with multiple face depressions. It was also observed that ozone first attacked the amorphous zone of the starch granules and then penetrated the crystalline zone. Combining 1D and 2D NMR (H NMR, C NMR, HSQC and HMBC) and other methods, it was proved that ozone oxidation led to ring splitting between C and C of the glucose unit. The resulting hemiacetal groups showed different types of structures. Among them, the main structures were intramolecular acetals and intermolecular hemiacetals. This research offered theoretical guidance for the utilization of ozone oxidation technology for starch modification and the development of waxy rice new foods.

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).

Ozone was used as a green and environmentally friendly initiator to directly induce a Schiff base cross-linking reaction between chitosan and waxy rice starch (CS) in the present investigation. The effects of oxidation on the structure of chitosan/starch bio-based composite, along with the cross-linked structure formation via Schiff base reaction, were investigated and confirmed using FTIR, XRD, and XPS characterization techniques. The formation of new bonds (C=N) along with other attributes imparted by the cross-linking reaction were evaluated and characterized.

Granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI) encoding gene Waxy (Wx), which largely regulates the amylose content of rice grains, is a master module determining rice eating and cooking quality (ECQ). Fine-tuning amylose level of grains is an ideal strategy to improve rice quality. Through fine editing of Wx promoter and 5'UTR by CRISPR/Cas9 system, we created 14 types of novel Wx allelic variations, of which MT7 and MT13 were able to alter Wx expression and amylose content of grains.

Introduction: Whole-grain pigmented rice (WCP) provides many nutritional benefits compared to non-pigmented varieties. The textural quality of cooked whole-grain rice, particularly its hardness, is crucial for consumers' preferences.
Materials And Methods: We investigated the impact of multiple-grain nutrient components on textural attributes through Pearson Correlation and Path Coefficient Analyses (PCA).
