The effects of amylose content on thermal properties of starches, dough rheology, and bread staling were investigated using starch of waxy and regular wheat genotypes. As the amylose content of starch blends decreased from 24 to 0%, the gelatinization enthalpy increased from 10.5 to 15.3 J/g and retrogradation enthalpy after 96 hr of storage at 4°C decreased from 2.2 to 0 J/g. Mixograph water absorption of starch and gluten blends increased as the amylose content decreased. Generally, lower rheofermentometer dough height, higher gas production, and a lower gas retention coefficient were observed in starch and gluten blends with 12 or 18% amylose content compared with the regular starch and gluten blend. Bread baked from starch and gluten blends exhibited a more porous crumb structure with increased loaf volume as amylose content in the starch decreased. Bread from starch and gluten blends with amylose content of 19.2–21.6% exhibited similar crumb structure to that of bread with regular wheat starch which contained 24% amylose. Crumb moisture content was similar at 5 hr after baking but higher in bread with waxy starch than in bread without waxy starch after seven days of storage at 4°C. Bread with 10% waxy wheat starch exhibited lower crumb hardness values compared with bread without waxy wheat starch. Higher retrogradation enthalpy values were observed in breads containing waxy wheat starch (4.56 J/g at 18% amylose and 5.43 J/g at 12% amylose) compared with breads containing regular wheat starch (3.82 J/g at 24% amylose).  相似文献

In this study, attempts were made to improve the characteristics of starch‐based plastic foams by blending starch with polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polymer made from renewable sources. Formulations of the foams (types of starch, ratio of starch to polymer, and moisture content) were optimized. Physical and mechanical properties of the foams, including expansion, unit density, bulk density, water solubility index (WSI), spring index, and compressibility on both single piece and bulk samples were determined. The addition of the PLA polymer to regular (25% amylose) and waxy corn starches significantly improved the physical and mechanical properties of the extruded foams. Foams made from waxy starch had better radial expansions, higher WSI, higher compressibilities, and lower spring indices than those of regular starch foams. Both regular and waxy starches produced foams with similar unit and bulk densities, bulk compressibilities, and bulk spring indices. Increasing PLA polymer contents increased the radial expansions and spring indices and significantly reduced the unit and bulk densities and bulk compressibilities. Changing the PLA content had no significant effect on WSI, compressibilities, and bulk spring indices. Increasing the moisture content adversely affected foam characteristics. The formulation containing waxy starch, 40% PLA, and 19% moisture produced a loose fill foam with the best physical characteristics and mechanical properties.  相似文献

The poor barrier and mechanical properties of biopolymer‐based food packaging can potentially be enhanced by the use of layered silicates (nanoclay) to produce nanocomposites. In this study, starch‐clay nanocomposites were synthesized by a melt extrusion method. Natural (MMT) and organically modified (I30E) montmorillonite clays were chosen for the nanocomposite preparation. The structures of the hybrids were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Films were made through casting using granulate produced by a twin‐screw extruder. Starch/MMT composite films showed higher tensile strength and better water vapor barrier properties than films from starch/I30E composites, as well as pristine starch, due to formation of intercalated nanostructure. To find the best combinations of raw materials, the effects of clay content (0–21 wt% MMT), starch sources (corn, wheat, and potato), and amylose content (≈0, 28, 55, 70, 100%) on barrier and mechanical properties of the nanocomposite films were investigated. With increase in clay content, significantly higher (15–92%) tensile strength (TS), and lower (22–67%) water vapor permeability (WVP) were obtained. The barrier and mechanical properties of nanocomposite films did not vary significantly with different starch sources. Nanocomposite films from regular corn starch had better barrier and mechanical properties than either high amylopectin or high‐amylose‐based nanocomposite films. WVP, TS, and elongation at break (%E) of the films did not change significantly as amylose content increased beyond 50%.  相似文献

A heat expansion process similar to that used for expanded bead polystyrene was used to expand starch-based compositions. Foam beads made by solvent extraction had the appearance of polystyrene beads but did not expand when heated due to an open-cell structure. Nonporous beads, pellets, or particles were made by extrusion or by drying and milling cooked starch slurries. The samples expanded into a low-density foam by heating 190-210 degrees C for more than 20 s at ambient pressures. Formulations containing starch (50-85%), sorbitol (5-15%), glycerol (4-12%), ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVAL, 5-15%), and water (10-20%) were studied. The bulk density was negatively correlated to sorbitol, glycerol, and water content. Increasing the EVAL content increased the bulk density, especially at concentrations higher than 15%. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) increased the bulk density more than EVAL. The bulk density was lowest in samples made of wheat and potato starch as compared to corn starch. The expansion temperature for the starch pellets decreased more than 20 degrees C as the moisture content was increased from 10 to 25%. The addition of EVAL in the formulations decreased the equilibrium moisture content of the foam and reduced the water absorption during a 1 h soaking period.  相似文献

White salted noodles were prepared through reconstitution of fractionated flour components with blends of waxy and regular wheat starches to determine the effects of amylose content on textural properties of white salted noodles without interference of protein variation. As the proportion of waxy wheat starch increased from 0 to 52% in starch blends, there were increases in peak viscosity from 210 to 640 BU and decreases in peak temperature from 95.5 to 70.0°C. Water retention capacity of waxy wheat starches (80–81%) was much higher than that of regular wheat starch (55–62%). As the waxy wheat starch ratio increased in the starch blends, there were consistent decreases in hardness of cooked noodles prepared from reconstituted flours, no changes in springiness and increases in cohesiveness. White salted noodles produced from blends of regular and waxy wheat flours became softer as the proportion of waxy wheat flour increased, even when protein content of flour blends increased. Amylose content of starch correlated positively with hardness and negatively with cohesiveness of cooked white salted noodles. Protein content of flour blends correlated negatively with hardness of cooked noodles, which were prepared from blends of regular (10.5% protein) and waxy wheat flours (> 16.4% protein).  相似文献

A waxy spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotype was fractionated into flour and starch by roller and wet‐milling, respectively. The resultant flour and starch were evaluated for end‐use properties and compared with their counterparts from hard and soft wheats and with commercial waxy and nonwaxy corn (Zea mays L.) starches. The waxy wheat flour had exceptionally high levels of water absorption and peak viscosity compared with hard or soft wheat flour. The flour formed an intermediate‐strength dough that developed rapidly and was relatively susceptible to mixing. Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffractometry showed waxy wheat starch had higher gelatinization temperatures, a greater degree of crystallization, and an absence of an amylose‐lipid complex compared with nonwaxy wheat. Waxy wheat and corn starches showed greater refrigeration and freeze‐thaw stabilities than did nonwaxy starches as demonstrated by syneresis tests. They were also similar in pasting properties, but waxy wheat starch required lower temperature and enthalpy to gelatinize. The results show analogies between waxy wheat and waxy corn starches, but waxy wheat flour was distinct from hard or soft wheat flour in pasting and mixing properties.  相似文献

The effects of amylose, protein, and fiber contents on ethanol yields were evaluated using artificially formulated media made from commercial corn starches with different contents of amylose, corn protein, and corn fiber, as well as media made from different cereal sources including corn, sorghum, and wheat with different amylose contents. Second‐order response‐surface regression models were used to study the effects and interactions of amylose, protein, and fiber contents on ethanol yield and conversion efficiency. The results showed that the amylose content of starches had a significant (P < 0.001) effect on ethanol conversion efficiency. No significant effect of protein content on ethanol production was observed. Fiber did not show a significant effect on ethanol fermentation either. Conversion efficiencies increased as the amylose content decreased, especially when the amylose content was >35%. The reduced quadratic model fits the conversion efficiency data better than the full quadratic model does. Fermentation tests on mashes made from corn, sorghum, and wheat samples with different amylose contents confirmed the adverse effect of amylose content on fermentation efficiency. High‐temperature cooking with agitation significantly increased the conversion efficiencies on mashes made from high‐amylose (35–70%) ground corn and starches. A cooking temperature of ≥160°C was needed on high‐amylose corn and starches to obtain a conversion efficiency equal to that of normal corn and starch.  相似文献

The effect of amylose content of starch on processing and textural properties of instant noodles was determined using waxy, partial waxy, and regular wheat flours and reconstituted flours with starches of various amylose content (3.0–26.5). Optimum water absorption of instant noodle dough increased with the decrease of amylose content. Instant noodles prepared from waxy and reconstituted wheat flours with ≤12.4% amylose content exhibited thicker strands and higher free lipids content than wheat flours with ≥17.1% amylose content. Instant noodles of ≤12.4% amylose content of starch exhibited numerous bubbles on the surface and stuck together during frying. Lightness of instant noodles increased from 77.3 to 81.4 with the increase of amylose content of starch in reconstituted flours. Cooking time of instant noodles was 4.0–8.0 min in wheat flours and 6.0–12.0 min in reconstituted flours, and constantly increased with the increase in amylose content of starch. Hardness of cooked instant noodles positively correlated with amylose content of starch. Reconstituted flours with ≤12.4% amylose content of starch were higher in cohesiveness than those of wheat flours of wild‐type and partial waxy starches and reconstituted flours with ≥17.1% amylose content. Instant fried noodles prepared from double null partial waxy wheat flour exhibited shorter cooking time, softer texture, and higher fat absorption (1.2%) but similar color and appearance compared with noodles prepared from wheat flour of wild‐type starch.  相似文献

The small deformation rheological properties of wheat flour doughs in relation to their structure and hydration were studied by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and electron spin resonance. The effect of salt and triglycerides was also examined and compared with results we obtained previously on starch dispersions. Moisture content was adjusted to 48 or 60% (w/w, wb). Samples contained 0–16% NaCl (g/100 g of flour‐water) and 0–18% triolein or lard (g/100 g of flour‐water). The obtained results suggested that starch has an active role in determining the evolution of dough rheological characteristics during heating. The main factors controlling rheological behavior during thermal treatment are the volume fraction and deformability of starch granules. Gluten changes the viscoelasticity of the continuous phase and competes with starch for water. The addition of sodium chloride to flour dispersions shifted the structural disorganization and rigidity increased during heating to higher temperatures. At >7% NaCl, the reverse effect was observed. The mechanism controlling the effect of salt on dough rheological behavior was explained in terms of effect on water properties and on starch structure and hydration. Triglycerides had a lubricant effect (i.e., lowering G′ modulus) on the wheat flour dough system. These effects are of great importance for production and quality of bakery products.  相似文献

Starch is a crucial component determining the processing quality of wheat‐based products such as Chinese steamed bread (CSB) and raw white noodles (RWN). Flour from wheat cultivar Zhongmai 175 was used for fractionation into starch, gluten, and water solubles by hand washing. The starch fraction was successfully separated into large (>10 μm diameter) and small starch granules (<10 μm diameter) by repeated sedimentation. Flour fractions were reconstituted to original levels in the flour by using constant gluten and water solubles and varying the weight ratio of large and small starch granules. As the proportion of small granules increased in the reconstituted flours, farinograph water absorption increased, and amylose content, pasting peak viscosity, trough, and final viscosity decreased. Starch granule size distribution significantly affected processing quality of CSB and RWN. Superior crumb structure score (12.0) was observed in CSB made from reconstituted flour with 35% small starch granules. CSB made from reconstituted flours with 30 and 35% small starch granules exhibited the highest total scores, with values of 85.4 and 83.3, respectively. Significant improvements in color, viscoelasticity, and smoothness of RWN were obtained with an increase in small starch granule content, and reconstituted flours with 30–40% small starch granules produced RWN with moderate firmness.  相似文献

Rheological properties of intermediate moisture (35-45% wet basis) doughs from pregelatinized and raw wheat starch blends of various ratios were characterized using off-line capillary rheometry and online slit-die extrusion. In the case of capillary rheometer, viscosity of blends decreased by up to 50% as pregel starch concentration increased from 5 to 45%, whereas tests could not be conducted beyond 45% pregel starch concentration. For slit-die extrusion, viscosity was at a minimum at 60% pregel concentration, and it decreased by as much as 65% as pregel concentration increased from 0 to 60%. As pregel concentration increased (from 5 to 45% for the rheometer and from 0 to 60% for the extruder), the amount of water available in the system for gelatinization of existing raw starch granules decreased due to the stronger water-binding capacity of pregelatinized starch. This led to decreased additional conversion in the rheometer and extruder, which in turn caused a decrease in the volume fraction of starch and a reduction in viscosity.  相似文献

Reducing corn steep time by adding lactic acid instead of relying on in situ fermentation was studied. Corn at two initial moisture levels (15 and 20%) was steeped for 18 hr in a countercurrent steep system. The initial SO2 target concentration in steepwater was 2,000 or 3,000 ppm, while the initial lactic acid concentration in steepwater was 0, 0.28, or 0.55%. Adding lactic acid under all steeping conditions decreased steepwater pH, accelerated SO2 absorption, and increased the amount of solids released from corn. Adding lactic acid during steeping also increased the first grind slurry density and made germ skimming easier than when no lactic acid was added. Starch yields for the hybrid used in this study under all steep conditions were comparable to those from 24‐hr steeping, except when steeping corn with an initial moisture content of 15% in ≈2,000 ppm of SO2 alone. For the 20% moisture corn, adding lactic acid to fresh steepwater significantly improved the starch yield at ≈2,000 ppm of SO2 for 18‐hr steeping. At ≈3,000 ppm of SO2, adding lactic acid did not increase the starch yield for the hybrid used. The protein content in starch was significantly lower when lactic acid was added. Pasting properties of starch were not affected by adding lactic acid. The hybrid used in this study had an initial moisture content of 20% and could be wet‐milled without affecting starch yield, starch protein content, and pasting properties.  相似文献

The chemical composition, functional properties, starch digestibility, and cookie‐baking performance of bean powders from 25 edible dry bean varieties grown in Michigan were evaluated. The beans were ground into coarse (particle size ≤1.0 mm) or fine (≤0.5 mm) powders. Starch and protein contents of the bean powders varied between 34.4 and 44.5% and between 19.1 and 26.6% (dry basis [db]), respectively. Thermal properties, pasting properties, and water‐holding and oil‐binding capacities of the bean powders differed and were affected by particle size. After blending the bean powders with corn starch (bean/starch = 7:3, db), the blends were used for cookie baking following a standard method ( 1 Approved Method 10‐54.01). Generally, the cookies baked from the fine bean powders had smaller diameters, greater thicknesses, and greater hardness values than those from the coarse counterparts. Differences in the cookie‐baking performances of the bean powders were observed among the 25 varieties. Larger proportions of resistant starch (RS) were retained in the bean‐based cookies (54.7–126.7%) than in the wheat‐flour‐based cookies (10.4–19.7%) after baking. With higher contents of RS and protein, the bean‐based cookies had more desirable nutritional profiles than those baked from wheat flour alone.  相似文献

The independent effects of flour protein and starch on textural properties of Chinese fresh white noodles were investigated through reconstitution of fractionated flour components. Noodle hardness decreased with decreased protein content, whereas it unexpectedly increased as protein content decreased to a very low level (7.0%). Noodle cohesiveness, tensile strength, and breaking length increased with increased protein content. Higher glutenin‐to‐gliadin ratio resulted in harder and stronger noodles at constant protein content. Increased starch amylose content resulted in increased flour peak viscosity. When water absorption remained the same during noodle making, hardness and cohesiveness of cooked noodles also increased with increased starch amylose content, while springiness did not vary significantly. Increased starch damage of ≈5.5–10.4% effectively improved noodle hardness; however, starch damage >10.4% decreased it. Increased starch damage also enhanced noodle springiness while it decreased cohesiveness.  相似文献

To obtain an indication of the effect of increasing the starch amylose content above normal levels (27–74%) and increasing the percentage of B‐type starch granules (11–60%) on durum dough properties and the quality of the spaghetti derived from these doughs, the reconstitution approach was used. Reconstituted flours were prepared from a common Wollaroi gluten, solubles and tailings fraction combined with starches containing varying B‐granule contents, or with starches from maize with varying amylose content. An increased B‐granule content increased farinograph water absorption. Cooked spaghetti firmness was highest with B‐type granules at 32–44% (volume percentage basis), which is ≈10–15% higher than normally found in durum starch. Increasing the amylose content in the starch caused the dough to be more extensible, increased spaghetti firmness, and decreased water absorption with optimum quality of amylose at 32–44%. The information indicates there would be benefit in producing durum wheats with slightly elevated B‐granule and amylose contents.  相似文献

The influence of added fatty acids on extrusion cooking of corn grits and extrudate properties was studied. Samples with three average corn grits particle sizes were processed in a twin-screw extruder; fatty acids content (0.2–0.8%, wb) varied, and experimental conditions were kept constant (moisture content 18.4% wb, barrel temperature 150°C, screw speed 165 rpm). The effect of adding fatty acids was studied by analyzing water solubility and absorption indices, expansion indices, and mechanical (puncture test) and structural (computerized image analysis) extrudate properties. When fatty acids were added, water solubility and absorption indices decreased, radial expansion index decreased, longitudinal expansion index increased, number of cells increased, and mechanical resistance of extrudates decreased. The influence of added fatty acids was attributed to the formation of fatty acids-amylose complexes.  相似文献

The potential of triticale as a partial or total substitute for wheat in flour tortilla production was evaluated. Different mixtures of triticale and wheat flours were tested in a typical hot‐press formulation. Both grains yielded similar amounts of flour. Wheat flour contained 1.5% more crude protein, 1.6× more gluten, and produced stronger dough than triticale. Triticale flour significantly reduced optimum water absorption and mix time of blends. Flour tortillas with 100% triticale absorbed 8% less water and required 25% of the mix time of the control wheat flour tortilla. The yield of triticale tortillas was lower than the rest of the tortillas due to lower moisture content and water absorption. Triticale dough balls required less proofing and ruptured during hot pressing, thus producing defective tortillas. The 50:50 flour mixture produced doughs with acceptable rheological properties and good quality tortillas. Addition of 1% vital gluten to the 75:25 triticale‐wheat flour mix or 2% to the 100% triticale flour significantly increased water absorption and mix time and improved dough properties and tortilla yields. Textural studies indicated that increasing levels of triticale flour reduced the force required to rupture tortillas. For all tortilla systems, rupture force gradually increased, and extensibility decreased during seven days of storage at room temperature; the highest rate of change occurred during the first day. Sensory evaluation tests indicated that triticale could substitute for 50% of wheat flour without affecting texture, color, flavor, and overall acceptability of tortillas. For production of 100% triticale flour tortillas, at least 2% vital gluten had to be added to the formulation.  相似文献

We evaluated the qualitative and quantitative effects of wheat starch on sponge cake (SC) baking quality. Twenty wheat flours, including soft white and club wheat of normal, partial waxy, and waxy endosperm, as well as hard wheat, were tested for amylose content, pasting properties, and SC baking quality. Starches isolated from wheat flours of normal, single‐null partial waxy, double‐null partial waxy, and waxy endosperm were also tested for pasting properties and baked into SC. Double‐null partial waxy and waxy wheat flours produced SC with volume of 828–895 mL, whereas volume of SC baked from normal and single‐null partial waxy wheat flours ranged from 1,093 to 1,335 mL. The amylose content of soft white and club wheat flour was positively related to the volume of SC (r = 0.790, P < 0.001). Pasting temperature, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown, and setback also showed significant relationships with SC volume. Normal and waxy starch blends having amylose contents of 25, 20, 15, and 10% produced SCs with volume of 1,570, 1,435, 1,385, and 1,185 mL, respectively. At least 70 g of starch or at least 75% starch in 100 g of starch–gluten blend in replacement of 100 g of wheat flour in the SC baking formula was needed to produce SC having the maximum volume potential. Starch properties including amylose content and pasting properties as well as proportion of starch evidently play significant roles in SC baking quality of wheat flour.  相似文献

This article introduces a new method that uses a shearing device to study the effect of simple shear on the overall properties of pasta‐like products made from commercial wheat gluten‐starch (GS) blends. The shear‐processed GS samples had a lower cooking loss (CL) and a higher swelling index (SI) than unprocessed materials, suggesting the presence of a gluten phase surrounding starch granules. Pictures of dough micro‐structure by confocal scanning laser microscopy (CSLM) showed the distribution of proteins in the shear‐processed samples. This study revealed that simple shear processing could result in a product with relevant cooking properties as compared with those of commercial pasta. Increasing gluten content in GS mixtures led to a decrease in CL and an increase in maximum cutting stress of processed samples, whereas no clear correlation was found for SI values of sheared products. It was concluded that the new shearing device is unique in its capability to study the effect of pure shear deformation on dough development and properties at mechanical energy and shear stress levels relevant to industrial processing techniques like pasta extrusion.  相似文献

The gelatinization properties of starch extracted from corn and waxy corn dried at different temperatures were determined at various water contents and heating rates by differential scanning calorimetry. All gelatinization transition temperatures increased with drying temperature and heating rate. Onset and peak temperatures remained relatively constant, whereas end temperature decreased in the presence of excess water. The gelatinization enthalpy (deltaH(g)) of corn starch decreased with drying temperature at 50% water; however, it remained constant for waxy corn starch. The effects of water content and heating rate on deltaH(g) were dependent on each other. The minimum water levels required for gelatinization of starch extracted from corn dried at 20 and 100 degrees C are 21 and 29%, respectively. The activation energy (E(a)) was calculated using an Arrhenius-type equation and two first-order models; the degree of conversion (alpha) was predicted using a newly proposed model that produced good results for both E(a) and alpha.  相似文献
