Lintnerization properties and yield of enzyme-resistant starch in maize starches with different amylose content were investigated. Hydrolytic patterns of starches showed two distinct stages. With decreasing the amylose content, hydrolysis extents of starch increased. X-ray diffraction patterns of Amloca, PFP and commercial maize starch were the A crystalline type, and those of Amaizo 5 and Amylomaize VII were the B crystalline type. As acid hydrolysis time increased, the relative crystallinity of starches increased. After heating-cooling treatment was repeated up to 4 times, the yield of RS increased with increasing the amylose content. The yields of RS in lintnerzed maize starches decreased with acid treatment.

In order to find out the effect of low level of starch acetylation on physicochemical properties of potato starch, amylose content, digestibility of raw and gelatinized starch, thermal properties, pasting properties, and the swelling power of native and acetylated potato starches were measured. The amylose content was significantly lower in acetylated starch than in their counterpart native starches. Though a tendency in the decrease in digestibility of raw starch was observed with starch acetylation, acetylation did not alter the proportion of readily digestible starch (RDS), slowly digestible starch (SDS), and resistant starch (RS) of both raw and gelatinized potato starches. No clear increase in the swelling power was observed, however, the peak and onset gelatinization temperatures and the enthalpy required for starch gelatinization decreased with starch acetylation. Peak and breakdown viscosities were reduced due to acetylation of potato starch while final viscosity and set back were increased.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of resistant starch(RS) in hyperchlesterolemia and colon cancer. The subjects of this study was eight college women participating in the general starch diet(GSD) period for 5 days and resistant starch diet(RSD) period for 7 days. RSD contains 30g or the RS. On the last day of each program blood were collected. And for the last 3 days of each diet period, the amount of all the food consumed by the subjects and feces were collected. Food was measured to determine and compared the energy, protein and fat intakes. The amount of total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and volatile fatty acids in plasma and the amounts of bile acids in feces were measured by gas chromatography. The results obtained were as follows, Daily energy intake was higher in the RSD compared with the GSD, Protein and fat intakes were lower in the RSD compared with the compared with the GSD. Volatile fatty acid contents in plasma, the amounts of acetic acid, propionic acid and valeric acid were higher in the RSD compared with the GSD. The amounts of bile acids in feces, cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid were higher in the RSD compared with the GSD, But the amount of deoxycholic acid n the RSD period was significantly low. Secondary/primary ratios of bile acids was lower in the RSD compared with GSD, respectively. We speculate that , RS consumption decreases colonic mucosal proliferation as a result of the decreased formation of cytotoxic secondary bile acids. Thus, RS intakes may contribute the prevention of heart disease and colon cancer in humans. (Korean J Nutrition 33(8) : 802-812, 2000)

The effects of resistant starch (RS) and non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) addition on the properties of hard wheat flour were investigated. Total dietary fiber (TDF) levels of various NSP ranged from 78.3-100.0%, but TDF and RS levels of autoclaved RS3 and cross-linked RS4 were 16.1 and 35.0% and 13.2 and 90.9%, respectively. DF-supplemented flour increased swelling power, but RS4-supplemented flour exhibited the lowest it. Solubility increased with the addition of pectin and RS3, but decreased with the addition of cellulose and RS4. RS-supplemented flour had increased lightness (L), but decreased values of redness (a) and yellowness (b). RS3 and pectin increased the dough development time, but RS4, cellulose, and chitosan decreased it. The water absorptions of pectin- and RS4-supplemented flours increased, however the dough stability decreased. The initial pasting temperatures of RS- and NSP-supplemented flours increased regardless of amount added, but the maximum peak viscosity decreased for all except the pectin-supplemented flour.

This study attempted to examine the application of retrograded starch (RS3) isolated from rice flour into Madeleine which is easy to make, supply enough energy and micro nutrients with adequate drinks, and prevent an adult disease. This could be a popular food to anyone regardless of age and gender who avoid rice and become high value-added, processed rice foods. For this, control Madeleine was made from wheat flour and an experimental one was made from 5 or 10% rice RS3 addition as well as wheat flour. Four different types of rice were produced from Premium Ho-Pyong Rice, that is, dry milled rice flour(RFD), soaked for 8 hours and milled, followed by air-dried rice flour(RFW), rice starch(RST), and retrograded rice starch or enzyme-resistant starch(RS3). The results found were as follows: Proximate compositions were decreased with soaking to make RFW, RST and RS3, compared to RFD. RS3 had the highest L, +a and ${\Delta}E$ with the lowest +b, changing it to a dark color, explaining the need for heat control during processing. At $80^{\circ}C$, the swelling power was shown in the order of RST>RFW>RFD>RS3 and the solubility of RS3 was the highest. There were significant differences in viscosities of peak, trough, cold, breakdown and total setback of all rice samples using RVA (p<0.001). Due to the pH of RS3, the Madeleine batter became acidic (p<.01) and expanded, resulting in more air cells and open texture. With an increasing RS3 level in Madeleine, several textural attributes among 'fresh' and 'stored at room temperature' Madeleine samples were significantly different by using Texture Analyzer. While the addition of RS3 in Madeleine did not significantly affect the sensory evaluation, indicating RS3 isolated from rice as a beneficial ingredient for processed rice products.

Indigestible carbohydrates as dietary fiber have attracted interest of consumers due to their several physiological benefits. Recent definitions of dietary fiber have included other indigestible carbohydrates such as resistant starch and resistant maltodextrins, which are natural, colorless, odorless and tasteless low-calorie food ingredients. Unlike some carbohydrates and digestible starches, indigestible starch and maltodextrin resist enzymatic hydrolysis in the upper gastrointestinal tract, resulting in little or no direct glucose absorption. In addition, there is increased microbial fermentation production of short-chain fatty acids in the large intestine. As an emerging functional low-calorie food ingredient, resistant starch and maltodextrin have been shown to have equivalent or superior impacts on human health compared to conventional fiber-enriched food ingredients. In this paper, the definition, strategies to enhance dietary fiber content in foods, some potential health benefits, and applications in food industry for indigestible starch and maltodextrin are summarized and discussed.

The objective of this study was to investigate the structural and physicochemical properties of starch by barely cultivars. Hwanggeumchal had a moisture content and ${\beta}$-glucan content of 12.02 and 6.23%, respectively. Hyegang had higher protein contents than those of the other cultivars. As a result of observing the particle size of starch, Hwanggeumchal and Hyegang had smaller particles of starch compared with the other cultivars at 15.7 and $15.9{\mu}m$, respectively. The analysis results on the content of damaged starch showed that Dahan and Hyegang had a damaged starch content of 1.14 and 1.20%, whereas Boseokchal and Hwanggeumchal were 0.76 and 0.49% respectively, showing low waxy cultivars. As for the content of amylose, the results show that Dahan and Hyegang had an amylose content of 37.07 and 37.75%, and Boseokchal and Hwanggeumchal were at 11.22 and 37.75%, respectively. As for the degree of amylopectin polymerization, all four cultivars had the highest degree of polymerization (DP) content of 13 - 24 at more than 54%, whereas the DP content ${\geq}37$ was the lowest at less than 5.35%. The results for the soluble and resistant starch content show that the content of soluble starch ranged from 93.90 to 95.76%, and resistant starch was 0.17 - 0.40%. After analyzing the gelatinization properties of barley starch, the value of the setback was low in Hwanggeumchal and Hyegang; thus, it is considered that the aging process of those cultivars will be slower than that of the others.

Thermal characteristics and granular morphology on enzyme-resistant starches (RS) formed during heat-moisture treatment (HMT) and retrogradation were investigated in high amylose corn starches, Hylon V and Hylon VII. With each treatment, both starches showed a similar trend in the increase of RS, but RS yield of Hylon VII is higher than that of Hylon V. Specially, RS was increased remarkably by HMT. It was more than doubled from 11.4% to 26.6% for Hylon V and from 15.9% to 32.8% for Hylon VII. A small increase of RS resulted from retrogradation. HMT on starch increased gelatinization temperature, decreased enthalpy. Retrograded starch exhibited small three endothermic transitions at $94^{\circ}C$, $110^{\circ}C$ and $140^{\circ}C$ in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermogram due to the remained ungelatinized starch granules, dissociation of amylose-lipid complex and melting of recrystallized amylose, respectively. Enzyme-resistant starches isolated from native and heat-moisture treated starches showed a broad endothermic transition at higher temperature than native starch, while retrograded starch exhibited a very sharp peak at ${\sim}150^{\circ}C$ due to the melting of amylose crystallites. Under microscopy, starch granules with HMT was not changed, but retrograded starches showed the aggregates of starch granules because amylose leached out during gelatinization. Iodine stained RS clearly showed the differences in enzyme hydrolysis on the native, heat-moisture treated and retrograded starches.

We conducted this study to investigate the amount of RS and cooking characteristics of the commercial extrusion-cooked noodles. Ten kinds of noodles were selected and grouped according to the storage conditions; dry noodles (3), refrigerated noodles (2), freeze noodles (4), and dry noodle made from wheat flour as a control (not extrusion-cooked). The total starch of commercial noodles ranged from 62.50% to 84.13%, Refrigerated Naengmyeon and dry Dangmyun had high proportions of total starch (respectively 84.13% and 80.13%, respectively). The amounts of apparent amylose ranged from 25.01% to 42.93% and RS ranged from 0.61% to 5.99%. A high proportion of the total starch was rendered digestible by extrusion cooking, and a small amount of RS remained in the samples. Dry Dangmyun had the highest percentages of RS (5.99%), followed by refrigerated Naengmyeon C (2.41%) and dry Jjolmyeon (1.94%), and those of the other noodles were lower than that of the control (1.86%). Cooking properties and texture measurements were evaluated. Cooking loss and turbidity of cooking water were highest in dry Jjolmyeon and dry Naengmyeon. There was little cooking loss in dry Dangmyun and freeze rice noodles. In particular, dry Dangmyun and refrigerated Naengmyeon C containing high amounts of RS and amylose had relatively high measurements of hardness and tensile strength.
