Starch is the major polysaccharide consumed by human being. It is not classified as a dietary fiber as it is digestible by the enzymes present in the saliva and small intestines. However, it could become possible to modify the starch with thermal and non-thermal techniques. High Hydrostatic Pressure (HHP) is a cold pasteurization technique that has increased application in the food industry with minimum effect on the nutritional quality of the products. It is hypothesized that the use of HHP could be a modification strategy for starch. In this study, the effects of different HHP parameters (400 and 500 MPa) at different temperature (20◦C, 30◦C, and 40◦C) for 5, 15 and 30 min on in vitro digestibility and physicochemical properties of cornstarch were studied. The results showed that HHP treatment increased SDS (Slowly Digestible Starch) and RDS (Rapid Digestible Starch) significantly (p≤0.05). In addition to this, it was shown that HHP treatment decreased the solubility and swelling power of the cornstarch and T2 relaxation times increased with HHP treatment as measured by NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) Relaxometry experiments.

Effects of psyllium fiber on in vitro digestion and structure of different types of starches
Sevilmis, Basak; Şensoy, İlkay (2021-11-01)
BACKGROUND: Starch digestibility in foods strongly depends on the structure, other ingredients and processing conditionsused. This study aimed to investigate the effect of psylliumfiber on gelatinization, crystallinity andin vitrodigestibility ofstarches having different crystalline structures (A, B and C). Wheat, potato and tapioca starches with and without added psyl-liumfiber were heated at 90°C for 10 min at three different solid:water (w:v) ratios (1:1, 1:2 and 1:5). The addedfiber contentwas 50% (dry ...
Effect of sodium silicate on flocculation of hematite with starch in the presence of calcium
Arol, Ali İhsan (2003-01-01)
Sodium silicate is used as a dispersant in the selective flocculation of iron ores with starch as the polymeric floccullant. The mechanism of its dispersive effect on quartz has been reported to be related to its ability to remove coagulants, such as calcium and magnesium ions, from the process water. The interaction between iron oxides and calcium and sodium silicate, which has not appeared in literature, is also an important factor that would contribute to the success of the selective flocculation process...
Effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on cellulose hydrolysis and cellulase activity, and its use for peanut hulls hydrolysis
Öztürk, Eylül; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2019)
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) technique has potential for food preservation purposes and HHP treatment can inactivate enzymes and/or increase their activity. Avicel, the commercial name of microcrystalline cellulose, is a commonly used substrate to observe the activity of cellulase. Cellulase activity is a crucial parameter for the production of alternative renewable fuels. Celluclast 1.5L, a mixture of enzymes, are used for the hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose containing substances. Peanut hull ...
Effect Of Volatile Fatty Acids On Methane Production İn Ozone Pre-Treated Anaerobic Digesters
Tuncay, Sera; İçgen, Bülent (null; 2018-09-07)
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biological wastewater sludge treatment process which transforms organic matter into methane-rich biogas. AD involves four key steps as hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis, respectively. In hydrolysis, a rate-limiting step, large organic polymers are broken down into simpler monomers. AD with ozone pre-treatment is used for the acceleration of this rate limiting step by converting solids into more easily biodegradable matter. As a result, sludge biodegradab...
