J. Nuessli et al., INFLUENCE OF STARCH FLAVOR INTERACTIONS ON RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF LOW CONCENTRATION STARCH SYSTEMS, Carbohydrate polymers, 28(2), 1995, pp. 167-170
Interactions between starch and the complex forming flavour substances
decanal and (-)fenchone were studied in low concentration starch syst
ems. Rheological changes were determined with dynamic measurements, th
e formation of complexes by measuring the iodine binding capacity of s
tarch and by X-ray diffractometry. Decanal and (-)fenchone led to the
formation of amylose helices with 6 and 7 D-glycosyl units per turn, r
espectively, and induced the gelation of low concentration starch syst
ems.
