Application of resistant starch prepared from parkia flour was produced by replacement of wheat flour with 0, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30% and 40% Parkia flour. Processing, proximate composition, digestibility of resistant starch in bread and sensory quality were evaluated. Resistant starch was significantly (p < 0.05) increased as Parkia flour level increase in all breads. The resistant starch prepa...

This work aims to evaluate starch digestion in whole sorghum grains. Nine sorghum cultivars were sampled from the Sahara of Algeria. The structural characteristics of sorghum grains were measured. Total starch (TS) varied between 67.67% and 74.82%, digestible starch (DS) between 64.34% and 69.70%, and resistant starch (RS) ranged from 2.55% to 7.98%. The kinetic of starch digestion displayed fi...

3. SACN have reviewed the available scientific evidence for components under consideration for inclusion in the Codex definition on dietary fibre for nutrition labelling purposes, using the SACN frame work for assessing evidence (SACN 2002). These components include total fibre, non starch polysaccharides, fibre components from cereal, fibre components from fruit and vegetables, starch, resista...

In-vitro digestibility and functional properties of Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean) (BG) flour, and its native and hydrothermally modified starches were investigated. The isolated native starch (BNS) was modified by annealing at 50°C for 48 hr (BAS), and heat-moisture treated at 100°C for 16 hr at 25% moisture level (BHS). The crude protein of BG flour was 16.88%. The amylose content of ...

Chemically modified starches (CMS) are RS4-type resistant starch, which shows a reduced availability, as well as high-amylose corn starch (HACS, RS2 type), compared with the corresponding unmodified starch. Previous studies have shown that RS4 increases fecal excretion of bile acids and reduces zinc and iron absorption in rats. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary RS4...

Besides viability protection, a sufficiently prolonged gastrointestinal retention of probiotics has emerged as critically important in improving the functional effectiveness delivery these microorganisms. In this work, we formulated pure, resistant starch-reinforced and chitosan-coated alginate microparticles using an electrospray technique evaluated their performance mucoadhesive probiotic for...

this study treats one important aspect of starch-filled rubber compounds which is their rheological behavior. starch-based sbr1712 masterbatches resulting from various formulations were prepared using a mini two roll mill and an internal mixer (plastograph brabender).the content in starch was varied from 0 to 50 phr. the effect of starch content on the rheological behavior was evaluated through...

Starch is recognized biopolymer because it abundant in nature. Dietary starches are major energy source for various human civilizations, and obvious that they may also contribute to health very particular ways. Resistant starch has got a lot of interest its possible advantages (similar soluble fibre) as well functional qualities. improves blood cholesterol levels, microbial flora, gastrointesti...
