Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of dextrin£zed cassava starch to glucose and alcohol, respectively, were carried out by co-immobilized Zymomonas mobilis and immobilz'zed glucoamylase (IG). Calcium alginate-entrapped cells and IG (4 : 1 ratio) gave an alcohol productivity of 0.30 glgww cellslh in a batchfermentation process. For continuous fermentation, 54.3 gil alcohol was produc...

A novel enzyme immobilization approach was used to generate mesoporous enzymes-silica composite microparticles by co-entrapping gelatinized starch and cross-linked phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) aggregates (CLEAs) containing gelatinized starch into biomemitic silica and subsequently removing the starch by α-amylase treatment. During the preparation process, the gelatinzed starch served as a ...

The influence of the composition and method preparation gelatinized starch compositions on their relative viscosity is studied. activation energy viscous flow developed formulations was determined. change in polymer dressing from time to

The purpose of this study was to assess the properties of resistant starch (RS) III prepared from elephant foot yam starch using pullulanase enzyme. Native and gelatinized starches were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis (pullulanase, 40 U/g per 10h), autoclaved (121°C/30 min), stored under refrigeration (4°C/24h) and then lyophilized. After preparation of resistant starch III, the morphological...

Bread is a global staple food. Despite attempts to develop functional breads containing viable microorganisms, this has not been done yet because of the high temperature during baking. The aim of this study is to obtain synbiotic bread, hence hamburger bun and white pan bread were selected. Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5 and L. casei 431 were encapsulated with calcium alginate and Hi-maize resi...

The effects of sucrose on the physical properties of cassava starch aqueous systems were investigated at varied concentrations of cassava starch (5-15% w/w) and sucrose (0-40% w/w). The peak viscosity and the final viscosity during a gelatinization-retrogradation cycle were determined based on a Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) test. Sucrose generally increased the viscosity values, while such increm...

Flour and starch isolated from the tubers of Scirpus grossus were investigated for their physicochemical properties and starch digestibility. The flour was extracted using two different processes namely peeled and unpeeled processes. Proximate analysis revealed that the flours from both processes contain considerably high total starch, more than 80%, which indicate their potential use as starch...

Cassava starch is a main renewable bio-resource with low price and mass production in Guangxi, China. It was used as carbon source in growing Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 (Xcc 8004) for xanthan gum production in this study. The xanthan gum yield of gelatinized cassava starch was higher than that of raw cassava starch; the maximal reducing sugar and amylase activity reached 14.30 g...

The present study evaluated the nutritional characteristics of Tapioca- a partially gelatinized starch grit made from cassava supplemented with fermented and germinated moringa seed flour. proximate composition, mineral, vitamin, amino acid profile, functional properties sensory attributes tapioca-moringa flour blends were determined. It was observed that protein content increased 2.85% − 11.05...

The effect of gelatinization of dietary starch (wheat, corn and potato) on the distribution of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase along the small intestine of rats was studied in villus and crypt cell populations isolated by graduated scraping. Gelatinized starch preferentially stimulated jejunal reductase activity in both villus and crypt cells and consequently retained ...
