Summary: This study investigates the molecular structural evolution and digestion kinetics of starch nanoparticles from green banana during digestion. The results show that the nanoparticles undergo distinctive changes in size and surface roughness, with a decrease in average molecular weight and polydispersity. The nanoparticles exhibit a B-type polymorph and their crystallinity decreases with digestion duration. The increased short-range molecular order during the initial digestion phase strengthens enzymatic resistance.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of processing temperature on the structure and permeability of intact cells from pinto beans, leading to changes in the colonic fermentation rate, short-chain fatty acids production, and abundance of beneficial microbiota. The increased cell wall permeability allowed easier access for microbes and/or microbial enzymes to intracellular starch for fermentation, resulting in enhanced metabolite production and beneficial microbe abundance. Controlled processing of whole foods can therefore achieve desired colonic fermentation profiles for improved gut health.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of protein fractions with different digestion properties on starch digestibility in chickpea seed. The results show that the major insoluble proteins affecting starch hydrolysis are the glutelin-like and globulin-like fractions. The content of the globulin-like fraction is negatively correlated with starch digestibility.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of chlorogenic acid (CA) on starch digestibility and fermentability. The results showed that WS-CA complexes had a looser gel matrix and higher solubility and swelling power. The addition of CA significantly reduced the digestive rate of gelatinized WS and increased the proportion of resistant starch (RS). After fermentation, the residual WS-CA complexes induced the production of short-chain fatty acids and promoted the growth of beneficial gut microbiota.

Summary: This review analyzed the characteristics, functional properties, and potential applications of native and modified starches from underutilized seeds. Starch from seeds had yields above 30%, with MSS and RSS showing higher thermal resistance and lower tendency to retrograde. Chemical and physical modifications improved the functional properties of RSS, WSS, QSS, and MSS. WSS and QSS had low digestibility, while ASS, MSS, PCSS, and HMT-QSS had higher resistant starch content.

Summary: The study found that at low alpha-amylase activity, the degree of gelatinization is a major determinant for the binding affinity and catalytic efficiency of alpha-amylase to starch, and thus affects the digestion rate of starch. Among the three types of starch studied, lotus seed starch showed a much greater increase in hydrolysis rate and catalytic efficiency as the degree of gelatinization increased.

Summary: Papain-pretreated sorghum grains were modified using pullulanase and infrared irradiation to reduce starch digestibility. The combination of pullulanase (1 U/ml/5h) and IR (220°C/3 min) treatment showed the best synergistic effect, producing modified corneous endosperm starch with a hydrolysis rate of 0.022, a hydrolysis index of 42.58, and a potential digestibility of 0.468. The modification increased the amylose content and crystallinity of the starch, but decreased its swelling power, solubility index, and pasting properties. The combination of debranching and infrared treatment can be an efficient method to produce tailor-made starch for food industries.

Summary: The study found that complexes formed between debranched wheat starch and fatty acids exhibit different characteristics depending on the chain length of the fatty acid, with the debranched wheat starch-stearic acid complex having the highest fatty acid content and helical structure. Long-chain fatty acids resulted in a more distinct structure in the complexes compared to short-chain fatty acids.

Summary: This study investigated the use of ice glazing containing D-sodium erythorbate (DSE) and vacuum packaging to maintain the quality of large yellow croaker during frozen storage. The results showed that vacuum packaging effectively inhibited ice crystal growth and minimized water loss, while the combination of vacuum packaging and 0.3% DSE-infused ice glazing maintained freshness indicators at low levels throughout the 300-day storage period. This combination was considered the most effective in preserving the quality of the fish.
