Maize cereal has potential to be used for food purpose but lack of viscoelastic behaviour that limits its use for this purpose. Therefore, present study on modification of pasting properties of maize flour using different additives was carried out. Flours of three maize varieties (PMH1, JL3459 and Buland) with and without additives (guar gum, xanthan gum, whey protein concentrate and potato starch) were analysed for physico-chemical and pasting properties. Maize (PMH1) had maximum thousand kernel weight (312.47 g), bulk density (0.80 g/ml), force to rupture (68.54 kg) and contained the highest starch (67.70%) and fat (5.08%) among the three varieties. Different levels of guar gum (0-1.0%), xanthan gum (0-1.0%), whey protein concentrate (0-15.0%) and potato starch (0-10.0%) were incorporated in flours from three maize varieties. Results showed that guar gum 1.0% (w/w basis) and xanthan gum 1.0% (w/w basis) incorporation led to the highest peak and final viscosity whereas whey protein concentrate and potato starch were not selected because of negative effect on these properties. These additives can be used as binding agent in chapati and other maize products.
Effect of Sugar and Gums on the Pasting Properties of Cassava Starch
Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, 2009
Pasting properties of cassava starch solutions were prepared with different types of sugars (glucose, sucrose and fructose) at different levels as 10.71, 19.35, 32.43% and gums (gum acacia, guar gum and gum tragacanth) at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4% levels, respectively, were analyzed using the Rapid Visco Analyzer. The pasting temperature increased with increase in the sugar concentration in cassava starch-water system and the maximum 78.27C at 32.43% sucrose solution. The peak viscosity (PV) and breakdown viscosity (BD) decreased with increase in the sugar concentration. Hot paste viscosity and cold paste viscosity decreased progressively with increase in sugar concentration in fructose and glucose solution. The PV and BD increased with increase in guar gum concentration and was maximum 5,704 and 3,773 mPa•s at 0.4% concentration, respectively.

Starch was isolated from tamarind kernels, which are at present considered as waste. It was compared with corn and mung bean starch for its physicochemical, rheological, and morphological properties. Tamarind kernel starch showed significantly lower amylose content, light transmittance, solubility, and higher swelling power in comparison to corn and mung bean starch. The micrographs of tamarind kernel starch revealed its small oval shape granules with smooth surfaces. X-ray diffraction pattern of tamarind kernel starch was similar to corn starch with strong diffraction peaks at 15, 17, and 23°(2θ). Changes in storage modulus (Gʹ), loss modulus (Gʹʹ), and loss tangent (tan δ) during heating of starches showed the lowest peak Gʹ for tamarind kernel starch, whereas the highest was observed for corn starch. Changes in Gʹ and Gʹʹ during cooling, holding and subsequently heating were also studied. The frequency dependence of Gʹ and Gʹʹ of starches measured at 25 and 95°C revealed their weak gel behavior. During cooling tamarind kernel starch showed lower increase in Gʹ in comparison to other starches. Tamarind kernel starch was different from corn and mung bean starch in exhibiting highest peak, breakdown, and lowest setback viscosity. Tamarind seeds have potential as a relatively new, cheap, and underutilized source of starch in food applications.

Kofter is a traditional product which is composed of water, molasses and starch. The quality of Kofter depends on many factors involving concentration of the ingredients, starch concentration and type, composition and type of the molasses and drying temperature and time. In the present study, the effect of molasses concentration (75-25%) on the pasting and textural properties of the Kofter samples was investigated. All pasting properties (peak viscosity, trough viscosity, breakdown viscosity, final viscosity, setback viscosity, peak time, pasting temperature) were significantly affected by molasses concentration used in the formula. The increase in water concentration generally caused increase in hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness value of the Kofter samples. Sensory analysis was also performed to determine mostly preferred sample regarding appearance, color, texture, taste, odor and overall preference. According to the sensory results, Kofter sample including 40% molasses and 60% water was found to be mostly preferred sample.

This study investigated effects of processing technique and varietal variations on the physicofunctional, starch pasting and viscoelastic properties of cassava (Manihot Esculenta Crantz) flours using a 3x6 factorial experimental approach. Samples were evaluated for their non-volatile acidity, pH, swelling power, solubility water absorption capacity (27 o C and 70 o C), colour and starch pasting characteristics of the cassava flours using standard methods. Grating and soaking of the cassava tubers significantly (p<0.05) reduced the pH of all the varieties with concomitant increases in non-volatile acidity. Grating and soaking significantly (p<0.05) reduced the swelling power, solubility and water absorption capacity of the flours. Soaked Chila B flour recorded the highest pasting temperature of 66.9°C whiles soaked Mweulu flour recorded the highest peak viscosity (684 BU), viscosity at 95 o C (683 BU) and viscosity at 95 o C-hold (359 BU), suggesting that the flours from the different cassava varieties could be targeted for different food and industrial products.

The use of hydrocolloids to modify the properties of native starches has been on the rise in the recent times due to the market demand for natural, safe and economical food ingredients. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of gum Arabic from Acacia senegal var. kerensis to modify pasting and textural properties of corn and cassava starches, as an alternative to chemical and enzymatic modification. Blends were prepared by substituting the starches with gum at different levels (0%, 0.5%, 2.0%, 4.0%, 6.0% and 8.0%), whereas native corn and cassava starches were used as control. The pasting properties of the starch-gum mixed systems were determined using the Brabender viscograph while the textural properties (firmness, consistency, cohesiveness and work of cohesion) were determined using Texture Analyzer. Results showed that the gum Arabic significantly decreased all the viscosity parameters (peak viscosity, final viscosity, break down and setback values) of both starches at all levels of substitution. However, there was no significant effect of gum Arabic on the pasting temperature (72.05˚C-71.85˚C) for corn starch and (68.90˚C-68.65˚C) for cassava starch. The degree of gel firmness and consistency was higher in corn starch than in cassava starch and the effect of gum addition differed with each starch. The findings from this study indicate that gum Arabic significantly modified the pasting and textural properties of corn and cassava starches due to strong interaction between the gum and the starches. Hence, this property of gum Arabic could be useful in controlling starch retrogradation and determining starch end use functionality.

Present research analyzed the effect of composition, granular morphology and crystalline structure on pasting, textural, thermal and sensory characteristics of seven traditional rice cultivars flour. Moisture, protein, ash, fibre and carbohydrate contents varied significantly (P≤0.05) from 10.84% to 13.18%, 7.25% to 8.85%, 0.57-1.57%, 0.74-1.67% and 74.76-78.24%, respectively. The gelatinization enthalpy was found highest in Mushki-budgi (9.73Jg-1), owing to its higher amylose content. Pasting temperatures varied from 75.8 o C to 88.70 o C with Koshkari depicted lowest values, while Mushki-budgi highest. Springiness was found highest in Teli-zag (29.776%) to lowest in Koshkari (19.628%) having lower to higher amylose content. The granular morphology of Ptcheri-bar, Koshkari, and Kamad indicated polyhedral packed tightly having well defined edges and smooth surfaces. Pasting, thermal and textural properties varied significantly among cultivars owing to variation in their protein, amylose and morphology. Sensory score for overall acceptability was highest for Mushki-budgi (1.5) followed by Mushkikandi, Kamad (2.17) and Zag (2.83).

The pasting properties of unripe plantain, unripe cooking banana, some selected cereals and their composite flours were investigated in relation to their food values. Each of the samples was cleaned, air–dried and pulverized to form the native flours which were mixed in different proportions to form the composite flours. Soft doughs were prepared from the flours and subjected to textural evaluation. The adjudged best from each set was analysed using Rapid Visco–Analyser followed by determination of their proximate composition and functional properties. The results showed that the breakdown viscosity (cP) of each of the composite flours was less than 920.50 in plantain and 915.50 in cooking banana, indicating improved ability to withstand shear stress. The values of the final viscosity of the composite flours were generally lower than the native flours of plantain and cooking banana which indicated better flow property. The setback viscosities of the composite flours were lower than ...
