The Chenopodium genus includes> 250 species, among which only quinoa, pigweed,
djulis, and kaniwa have been explored for starches. Chenopodium is a non-conventional …

This review paper focuses on the recent advancements in the large-scale and laboratory-
scale isolation, modification, and characterization of novel starches from accessible …

Sorghum starch granules were esterified with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) to obtain
modified starches with different degrees of substitution (DS)(0.0028–0.011). The reaction …

Reducing fat content without compromising its sensory qualities is a major technological
challenge to the food industry in manufacturing healthy tasty food. Based on the fact that …

A stable nano-emulsion was successfully prepared using Tween 80 (T-80) as an emulsifier,
so as to overcome the defects of the Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim essential oil (ZMEO) …

Starch nanoparticles are known to have potential applications in the encapsulation and
delivery of active substances. In this study, waxy maize starch (WMS) was modified with …

Starch granule associated lipids (GALs) are known to alter the properties and functions of
small granule starches. To test the hypothesis that the removal GALs from small granule …

Granule-associated surface and channel lipids (GALs) were extracted and identified from
four small-granule (rice, oat, quinoa and amaranth) starches. All small-granule starches had …

Waxy maize (a standard starch of normal granule size) and five small granule starches from
different botanical sources (rice, wheat B type, oat, quinoa and amaranth) were subjected to …

The influence of botanical source (waxy corn, glutinous rice, tapioca and potato), either
based on crystallization or morphology, and the debranching time (6–48 h) on the …
