Abstract
The structure and physicochemical properties of rice starch modified with 4-α-glucanotransferase (4αGTase) were compared for different enzyme treatment times (1, 24, and 96 h). Specifically, the gelation properties of native rice starch and 4αGTase-treated rice starch (GS) were analyzed regarding their structural characteristics. The average molecular weight of GS decreased with increasing treatment time, and was 4.73 × 104 g/mol after 96 h of treatment. The chain length distribution was also broadened with the enzyme treatment, as 4αGTase transferred α-glucan from one chain to another. The enzyme treatment also altered the gelation properties and decreased the viscosity of the starch depending on the treatment time, perhaps due to the changes in molecular weight distribution and branched chain length distribution. Moreover, the overall characteristics of GS differed significantly from those of maltodextrin. The physicochemical characteristics of GS with different degrees of 4αGTase treatment suggest that it can be used in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
