Starch is one such potential host renewable polymer which is abundant in nature and economical. Being a food ingredient, it is safe for human body. Its properties depends upon the amylose and amylopectin content in it and hence two different starches, corn (~27% amylose) and arrowroot (~15...
A food thickener is provided in the form of agglomerated instant starch, which contains a combination of one or more pregelatinized starches and a specific water-soluble food ingredient possessing specific surface active functionality. The pregelatinized starch component can be either modified or native,...
This research was set out to explore the development of arrowroot starch (AS) films using glycerol (G) as plasticizer at the ratio of 15, 30, and 45% (w/w, starch basis) using solution casting technique. The developed films were analyzed in terms of physical, structural, mechanical, ther...
