The effects of fermentation on barley starch were studied using dy-1. Changes in multi-scale structure and physicochemical properties of barley starch were studied. The chain structure results revealed that fermentation could increase the content of short chain and medium short chain by breaking down long amylopectin side chains in barley and increase amylose content by debranching amylopectin. Also, fermentation promoted the arrangement of short chains into short order structure, leading to the enhancement of hydrogen bond interaction. Furthermore, it improved the helical structure content and relative crystallinity of barley starch by degrading the amorphous structure of barley starch. In terms of physicochemical properties, fermentation inhibited the hydration characteristics of barley starch, thus improving its thermal stability. It also enhanced shear stability, resistance to short-term aging and digestion, and improved gel texture properties. These findings offer potential for the processing and nutritional regulation of fermented barley products.

Starch and non-starch polysaccharides ((N)SPs) are relevant in cereal-based beverages. Although their molar mass and conformation are important to the sensory characteristics of beer and non-alcoholic beer, their triggering mechanism in the mouth is not fully understood. Soft tribology has emerged as a tool to mimic oral processing (drinking).

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of β-glucan on the pasting, gelling, rheological properties, and multi-level structures of the highland barley (HB) starch after dynamic high pressure microfluidization (DHPM) treatment, exploring the inhibition mechanisms of starch retrogradation by endogenous β-glucan after DHPM. DHPM treatment led to a decrease in the viscosity (K values from 161.1 to 54.

The mechanisms underlying three thermal processing methods, namely hot-air drying, microwave irradiation, and heat fluidization, were systematically investigated to evaluate their effects on the structural, functional, and flour-processing properties of whole-grain highland barley. Starch granules were partially damaged when treated with hot-air drying and microwave irradiation. However, these granules were predominantly aggregated or encapsulated in proteins following heat fluidization.

Diet digestibility can vary based on factors such as the type of ingredients, processing techniques, formulation, fiber content, and nutrient interactions. Unlike proteins and fats, there is no specific carbohydrate requirement, which typically constitutes 30%-60% of commercial dried dog foods. Because of the significant proportion of carbohydrates in dog food, this study aimed to evaluate the differences in nutrient digestibility among barley, brown rice, corn, mung bean, and rice, which are common carbohydrate sources in commercial dog foods.
