Location influences the properties of potato starch. Potato starch granules cultivated in highland of China were separated into three fractions according to the sedimentation time: large- (∼81 μm, large fraction potato starch, LFPS), medium- (∼28 μm, medium fraction potato starch, MFPS), and small-size (∼15 μm, small fraction potato starch, SFPS) fractions. SFPS showed a spherical shape, MFPS showed an ellipsoid shape and LFPS showed an elongated shape. The three fractions showed the similar XRD patterns, while the relative crystallinity decreased with the decrease of granule size (LFPS 23.61%, MFPS 20.74% and SFPS 20.48%). The water solubility was positively corelated with the granule size, while the swelling power showed a negative relationship with the granule size. For the rheological properties, all the three fractions showed a shear-shinning behavior; and SFPS had the highest peak temperature. However, the MFPS showed the lowest storage modulus during the temperature sweep. The granule size didn't influence the nutritional properties of potato starch and LFPS had the highest slowly digestible starch (SDS) (83.77%) and resistant starch (RS) (13.66%) contents. Some of the properties are different from the previous studies.

In this study, the improvement effects of different polymeric saccharides, including native starch, maltodextrin and inulin, replacing 10 % sucrose on the physical characteristics and creaminess perception of non-fat whipped cream system were investigated. Systems containing maltodextrin had more uniform particle size and bubble distribution. This resulted in higher whipping performance and lower friction characteristics.

The effects of sugar boiling pretreatment (SBP) with different maltitol concentrations (20 %, 30 %, and 40 %) and boiling time (0 - 6 min) on the physicochemical and functional properties of purple sweet potato flour and the radiofrequency explosion puffing (RFEP) quality were investigated. The results showed that the volume ratio, crispness, anthocyanin retention rate and overall acceptability of the samples were maximized after boiling for 6 min at 40 % maltitol concentration achieving increases of 78.63 %, 437.

(1) Background: The aim of the work was to investigate the influence of selected physico-chemical factors on the solubility and release rate of CT (cryptotanshinone) in alcohologels. (2) Methods: The alcohologels of methylcellulose (MC), hydroksyethylcellulose (HEC), polyacrylic acid (PA) and polyacrylic acid crosspolymer (PACP) with CT were prepared and/or doped with native potato starch (SN) and modified citrate starches (SM2.5 and SM10).

This study identified several inhibitors of Starch Excess 4 (SEX4), an enzyme in plants' starch decomposition. Our research aims to inhibit starch breakdown by SEX4 with its potential to significantly impact food security, leading to starch accumulation in plants such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and significant crops like grains and rice. We recognized potential candidates by screening approximately 1840 chemical compounds using the phosphatase assay against NPP.

Background: and have obvious morphological features and strongly tolerate saline-alkali environments. However, the mechanisms that lead to the differences in saline-alkali tolerance between them remain unclear.
Methods: In this study, we employed comparative transcriptome analysis to investigate and under saline-alkali stress.
