In this research, maltodextrin (0, 1 and 2% w/w) and resistant starch (0, 1 and 2% w/w) were used in the formulation of low-fat ice cream (4% fat) and their effects on the physicochemical and sensory properties were investigated. The optimum levels of maltodextrin and resistant starch were determined by response surface methodology. Increment of maltodextrin and resistant starch increased acidity, viscosity, melting rate, time of dripping and overrun but decreased melting rate of ice cream. Results showed that the incorporation of maltodextrin and resistant starch at 0 and 2% w/w respectively, resulted into ice cream with suitable viscosity, melting rate, first dripping time, overrun and acidity.

Resistant starches with additional functionalities, such as starch-polyphenol complexes, are generating great interest due to the increasing incidence of diet-related diseases. However, preparing these complexes remains a major challenge due to the incompatible structures of many natural phenolic compounds. Herein, three protocols were compared for preparing novel amylose (AM) complexes with polyphenol quercetin (Q) in the presence of lauric acid (LA).

Background: Understanding starch behavior under various processing conditions is important for the development of novel food products with tailored nutritional profiles. This study investigated changes to the structure and properties of native corn starch (NCS) and biomimetic starch-entrapped microspheres following thermal and enzymatic treatments.
Results: Heat-treated microspheres showed more birefringence and structural order than native starch, indicating incomplete gelatinization due to the alginate matrix.

The hop plant is gaining interest in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries due to its abundance of secondary metabolites. However, branches and leaves, despite their antioxidant potential, are typically discarded. To valorize these components as functional ingredients they were dried, milled into hop powder (HP), and used to enrich bread.

Hydrocolloids are utilized in starch-based foods for water-holding, thickening, and gelation, yet their molecular interactions with starch in extrusion systems remain underexplored; this study evaluates physicochemical and multiscale structural changes in extruded starch incorporating curdlan (CG) and xanthan (XG). Incorporation of CG and XG significantly counteracted the disruption of the multiscale structure of starch caused by the extrusion treatment, and increased the content of resistant starch. It reduced the content of rapidly digestible starch in extruded starch by 4.

This study investigated the impacts of growth seasons and maturity stages on the processing properties of starch isolated from 'Dwarf Cavendish' banana. The analysis revealed that seasonal variations and maturity stages had significant impacts on the characteristics of the starch. Summer banana starch (SBS) demonstrated a more ordered structure, enhanced thermal stability, higher viscosity, and increased content of resistant starch (RS) compared to winter banana starch (WBS).
