Abstract
This study investigated the impact of alkaline extracted hawthorn seed polysaccharides (AHSP) on the properties and in vitro digestibility of wheat starch (WS) under co-heating and non-co-heating conditions. AHSP dose-dependently inhibited the hydrolysis of WS, with the 5 % AHSP co-heating treatment significantly reducing the degree of hydrolysis by 42.33 %. Correspondingly, the resistant starch (RS) content was increased with the increasing dose of AHSP, which demonstrated the effectiveness of co-heating interactions in reducing WS digestibility. The binding style was that AHSP bound to the linear chains of WS via physical forces, achieving a complexation index of 48 % (at 5 % AHSP), which inhibited the solubilization and facilitated the aggregation of WS. Additionally, the strong associative network between WS and AHSP increased apparent viscosity and enhanced the short-range ordered and crystalline structures of WS. These results provided a foundation for applying AHSP in developing starchy foods with low glycemic index (GI).
