The physicochemical properties of starch isolated from two kinds of waxy barley were investigated. The average diameters of starch granules of Changyoung and Smire were 13.6 and 16.6 microns, respectively, and most of starch granules were round shape. X-ray diffraction patterns of two samples were A-types and amylose contents of two waxy barley starches were 4%, blue values and alkali numbers of Changyoung and Smire were 0.22 and 0.18, 5.2 and 4.0, raising powers of them were 167 and 173, respectively. The optical transmitance of 0.1% suspension of waxy barley starches increased rapidly from $51^{\circ}C\;to\;75^{\circ}C$. Amylogram data on 5% of Changyoung and Smire starch solutions showed the gelatinization temperature of 63 and $62^{\circ}C$, maximum peak hight of 920 and 900 B.U., respectively. Waxy barley starches had higher swelling powers than non waxy barley starch. The starch pastes prepared from waxy barleys retrograded much slower than that of non waxy barley.

Physicochemical properties, gelatinization and retrogradation characteristics of surfactant added sweet potato starches were investigated. Three different surfactants, SSL (sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate), Dimodan (mono/diglyceride) and SE1670 (sucrose fatty acid ester 1670) were used. Shapes and crystallinities of starch granules were not changed by the addition of surfactants. Total lipid contents increased and the amylose content decreased by the addition of surfactants and the order was as follows: SE1670>SSL>Dimodan. The swelling power and solubility at $80^{\circ}C$ decreased in the surfactant added starches. By amylograph, initial gelatinization temperature of untreated sweet potato starch was $72.5^{\circ}C$, and did not change by the addition of surfactants, but SE1670 or Dimodan added starch showed the peak viscosity. The peak temperature of gelatinization and enthalpy of untreated starch by DSC were $53.9^{\circ}C$ and 1.3cal/g, respectively. The peak temperature increased by the addition of surfactants, while the enthalpy decreased. In gelatinization by alkali, the viscosity was lower in surfactant added starches than in untreated starch at concentration. The degree of retrogradation by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method was a lower in SSL and SE1670 added starches than untreated starch and the enthalpy by DSC also decreased in surfactant added and retrograded starches.

Textural changes of glutinous rice cakes during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ were evaluated by ${\beta}$-amylase digestibility and hardness. Some physical properties of starch including X-ray diffraction, swelling power, water holding capacity and gelatinization temperature were investigated. Changes in hardness were inversely related to the enzyme digestibility. The initial hardness for Tongil glutinous rice cake is much higher than that for Traditional one. Both parameters were changed rapidly during one and two days of storage for Tongil and Traditional glutinous rice cakes, respectively. These results implied that the differences in the strach structure might have significant influences on the texture of rice cakes. Sensory evalution revealed that hardness of the rice cakes was highly significant to the storage time and rice variety.

Physicochemical properties and characteristics on lintnerization of sweet potato starches from Wouki(the dry type), Shinmi(the intermediate type) ana Chunmi(the moist type) were investigated. Swelling and gelatinization curves of these starches showed a two-stage process. Swelling powers of starches were higher in order of Shinmi, Chunmi and Wonki over a range of temperatures. Amylose content of Wonki was higher than those of other two. Hydrolytic patterns of three starches with 2.2 N HCI at $35^{\circ}C$ showed two distinct stages. Hydrolysis extents of Wonki starch were lower than those of Shinmi and Chunmi starches. X-ray diffraction patterns of native and lintnerized starches were the Ca crystalline type. The relative crystallinities of these starches were higher in order of Worki, Chunmi and Shinmi.

The objective of this experiment was to study the influence of feed moisture content on the degree of enzymatic hydrolysis of com starch in a twin screw extruder and the saccharification yield of the dried extrudate. The feed moisture content was set at 25, 30, and 35% and ${\alpha}$-amylase solution was directly injected into the feed section at a barrel temperature of $95^{\circ}C$ and screw speed of 250 rpm. Amyloglucosidase was used for the saccharification of the dried extrudate at a concentration of 0.055%(w/w). Expansion ratio and swelling factor of extrudates decreased with increasing the feed moisture content. Addition of ${\alpha}$-amylase during extrusion process raised reducing sugar content of extrudates which also increased with the feed moisture content. The saccharification yield of dried extrudate was higher for the extrudate with lower feed moisture content.

Physicochemical properties of arrowroot starch, which was adjusted to 18, 21, and 24% moisture and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 16hr, were investigated. X-ray diffraction pattern was changed from C- to A-pattern upon treatment(24% moisture). The swelling powere and solubility decreased by heat-moisture treatment. The treated sample was gelatinized at higher temperature than untreated one. Water-binding capacity was drastically increased as the moisture level was decreased. Amylograph hot paste viscosities were decreased upon treatment.

Starches from three varieties of naked barley were fractionated into two populations according to the granule sizes and physicochemical properties were compared. Number of small granules was comprised in 62% of Saessalbori and 75% of Nulssalbori and Mudungssalbori. The proximate composition and water binding capacity were lower in large granules, the large granules showed higher values in blue value and intrinsic viscosity than those of small ones. There no differences in swelling power and X-ray diffraction pattern between small and large granules. The viscosities of alkali-gelatinized starch were higher on large granules, but the temperature of birefringennce loss was not different.

Effects of sucrose at different concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 30%, w/w) on steady and dynamic shear rheological properties of sweet potato starch (SPS) paste (5%, w/w) were investigated. The steady shear rheological properties of SPS-sucrose composites were determined from rheological parameters based on power law and Casson flow models. At 25$^{\circ}C$ all the samples showed pseudoplastic and thixoropic behavior with high yield stress. Consistence index (K), apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,100}$), and yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$) values of SPS-sucrose composites decreased with increasing sucrose concentration from 10% to 30%. The decrease of swelling power was observed at higher sucrose concentration (>20%) and the low swelling power yielded a lower K, ${\eta}_{a,100}$, and ${\sigma}_{oc}$ values. In temperature range of 25-70$^{\circ}C$, Arrhenius equation adequately assessed variation with temperature. Oscillatory test data showed weak gel-like behavior. Magnitudes of storage (G') and loss (G") moduli increased with an increase in sucrose concentration and frequency. The SPS-sucrose composite at 30% concentration closely followed the Cox-Merz superposition rule.

TThe purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties of chufa(Cyperus esculentus L., var sativus Boeck) starches by physical and chemical modification. Chufa starches were exposed to the microwave with 700W power oven for 1, 2, and 3 minutes. Also, starch was oxidized with 1.5%, 3% and 6% (15, 30, 60 mg Cl2/g starch $40^{\circ}\C$, pH 10, 3.0 hr) sodium hypochlorite. The shape of starch granules was not changed much by microwave heating and sodium hypochlorite. Water binding capacity increased but amylose content swelling power, and solubility decreased with increasing microwave heating time. Water binding capacity of the oxidized starch decreased with increasing the content of sodium hypochlorite. With increasing the microwave heating time, gelatinization temperature decreased, but enthalpy(${\Delta}H$) increased in physical modification of chufa starches. Also, chemically modified chufa starches have the similar pattern in gelatinization properties. Peak viscosities of RVA in physically modified chufa starches were 416-188 RVU, and in chemically modified chufa starches they were 129-267 RVU.
