Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Porous starch is prevalently utilized for loading and transporting biologically active substances and constitutes an inexpensive sorbent with an extensive range of applications. In this study, an innovative and high-efficient preparation approach for chestnut porous starch was executed by integrating plasma-activated water with hydrolysis (α-amylase and glucosidase). Under the optimized conditions (jet power and time, enzyme dosage and hydrolysis time), the obtained chestnut porous starch showed to possess a uniformly porous structure under the electron microscope. Compared with normal enzymatic hydrolysis, the oil absorption rate of the starch was significantly enhanced and reached 141.28% ± 0.86%. The optimal condition for the adsorption of curcumin using PECS was for 350 min, when Qe was maximized and the adsorption process conformed to pseudo-first-order kinetics. This study provides a novel and effective alternative route for the development of chestnut porous starch material, which can fulfill the requirements of subsequent in-depth research.

Wood porosity types (non-porous, diffuse-porous, and ring-porous) reflect evolutionary gradients cha-racteristics of xylem anatomy of temperate tree species. The mechanisms linking porosity type to non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) storage strategy in stem tissues remain unclear. We conducted an experiment with 77 warm-tempe-rate tree species in the Baotianman National Nature Reserve, Henan Province.

Flexible hydrogel sensors demonstrate emerging applications, such as wearable electronics, soft robots, and humidity smart devices, but their further application is limited due to their single-responsive behavior and unstable, low-sensitivity signal output. This study develops a dual-responsive starch-based conductive hydrogel via a facile "one-pot" strategy, achieving mechanically robust pressure sensing and ultra-sensitive humidity detection. The starch-Poly (2,3-dihydrothieno-1,4-dioxin)-poly (styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)-glutaraldehyde (SPG) hydrogel integrates physical entanglement and covalent crosslinking to form a porous dual-network architecture, exhibiting high compressive fracture stress (266 kPa), and stable electromechanical sensitivity (ΔI/I, ~2.

Germination is an effective strategy for enhancing functional and processing characteristics of whole grains. This research aimed to explore the changes of nutritional components, physicochemical properties, in vitro digestibility, and microstructural characteristics of black rice flour (BRF) during 0-48 h germination. The results showed that germination significantly induced α-amylase activation of BRF, from 1.

This study modified corn, oat, barley, and buckwheat starches using a Henan-specific sourdough starter, revealing that the initial starch architecture governs differentiated functional transformations. Pore-dominant starches (corn/buckwheat) underwent "inside-out" enzymatic pathways-corn starch exhibited a 38.21% reduced particle size through pore expansion, with long amylopectin chain degradation forming thermally stable gels, establishing it as an ideal base for anti-staling sauces and frozen dough.

Porous carbon nanofibers (CNF) were successfully prepared via electrospinning using oxidized starch (OS) as a pore-forming template and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a carbon precursor, followed by carbonization to produce high-performance ethylene (CH) adsorbents. The CNF-70 sample, synthesized with 70 % OS, exhibited the highest degree of graphitization with an average pore diameter of ∼0.86 nm, and fiber diameter of ∼120 nm.
