Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which magnetic field-pretreated quinoa protein amyloid-like fibrils affected the digestive properties of rice starch. Magnetic field pretreatment induced conformational changes in quinoa protein, promoting fibrillation, and quinoa protein formed the most amyloid-like fibrils under a 3 mT magnetic field treatment. The higher amyloid-like fibrils content enhanced both the short-range and long-range ordered structures of rice starch, as evidenced by the increased R1047/1022 value (from 0.637 to 0.750) and relative crystallinity value (from 5.96 % to 6.91 %), which was contributed to improved digestion resistance. The complex of amyloid-like fibril formed under a 3 mT magnetic field and rice starch exhibited the highest resistant starch content (24.30 %), along with superior thermostability and reduced swelling capacity. The findings offer insights into protein-regulated starch digestion, contributing to the development of functional foods with digestion-resistant properties.
