The present field research focuses on the native potato varieties, and , cultivated in the Peruvian highlands at roughly 4,000 m above sea level. The objective is to analyze the macho essence of the names assigned to the native potato, names that represent the social manifestation of women in Quechua culture. Participant observation and interviews about the different daily activities of the participants facilitated the research on the macho essence of the names of the native potato in the Quechua culture. The preponderant Quechua oral sources in the Peruvian Andes did not allow us to identify exactly how names associated with the macho way of social life were assigned to the native potatoes.

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.

(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).

Cerastium glomeratum Thuill., known as sticky mouse-ear chickweed, is native to Europe and has become naturalized in the wild on most continents. After its accidental introduction to Korea around the 1980s, it quickly became one of the dominant invasive weeds on the Korean peninsula and is now considered a significant threat to the Korean agroecosystem (Park et al.

Compaction of sustained release coated pellets into multi-unit pellet system (MUPS) tablets has been associated with damage to the functional polymer layer, leading to a loss in desired sustained release function. Many filler materials and complex processes have been studied on their ability to mitigate compaction-induced pellet coat damage. Among these, native or unprocessed starches included in the filler material have not been explored well despite being a simple strategy.

Improvement in film-forming properties of starch is critical for the wide application of environmentally friendly starch film. To enhance moisture barrier and mechanical properties of starch films, the formation of starch-lipid inclusion complex was promoted by partial debranching of starch and reaction at various temperature. The partially debranched potato starch was initially prepared with pullulanase, and the starch-lipid inclusion complex was subsequently produced with oleic acid at various reaction temperatures of 30, 50, and 70 °C.
