摘要:
A high solids, enzyme conversion process for preparing an enzyme-converted starch is carried out by adding to a modified or unmodified starch, preferably a granular starch, water and an enzyme in an amount sufficient to produce a single phase powdered mixture without a visible free water phase. The enzyme is activated by heating while maintaining a substantially constant moisture content in the mixture. The enzyme converted starch is recovered as a syrup, a granular converted starch, or mixtures thereof, or as a powder obtained by drying the syrup.
摘要:
High solids maltodextrin syrups, some of which are useful as the base for remoistenable adhesives, are prepared by a high solids alpha amylase enzyme conversion process. They are characterized by their high solids content (at least 55 wt. %) and light color. A granular chemically derivatized, optionally converted, starch having a degree of substitution of greater than about 0.01 and less than about 0.5 is used as the starting material. The maltodextrins have a reducing sugar content of about 5-19 dextrose equivalent and a distinct polymodal molecular weight distribution. When a granular highly esterified starch (D.S. of 0.5-1.8) is used as the starting material in the high solids process, the resulting enzyme-converted, esterified maltodextrins are characterized by their improved water dispersibility.

摘要:
Highly resistant granular starches may be produced which have unique and useful properties, including high enzyme resistance, dietary fiber, a unique molecular weight distribution, a high melting temperature and a high heat of gelatinization (Delta H) indicative of excellent processing tolerance. These starches may be prepared for example by heating a high amylose starch having at least 40% by weight amylose content and at a percent moisture and temperature insufficient to destroy the granular nature of the starch, and digesting the amorphous regions using alpha-amylase or a chemical reagent.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a process of preparing thermally inhibited starches using the low molecular weight carbohydrates to improve the rate of inhibition. The resulting starch/low molecular weight carbohydrate blends have improved cold storage stability and may be used in a variety of products, particularly food products.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to remoistenable and non-remoistenable adhesives which contain at least about 50 wt % of a maltodextrin syrup having a reducing sugar content of about 5-19 dextrose equivalent and solids content of about 60-80 % water, and an effective amount of other conventional adhesive additives. When the adhesive is a remoistenable adhesive, a chemically derivatized starch having an amylose content of 40 % or less and a D.S. of about 0.01 to less than about 0.50 is used. A preferred remoistenable adhesive also contains polyvinyl acetate and/or ethylene vinyl acetate in an amount from about 15-90 wt. % The maltodextrin syrup is prepared from a converted or a non-converted, chemically derivatized or underivatized granular starch, by a high solids, single phase enzyme conversion process. When derivatized, the maltodextrin has (i) substituents in an amount sufficient to provide a degree of substitution between greater than about 0.01 and less than about 0.50. Some of the chemically-derivatized maltodextrins have a polymodal molecular weight distribution with one peak between about 630-1600 daltons and at least one other peak between about 1600-2,500,000 daltons.

The present invention is directed to a high solids, water-based remoistenable adhesive consisting essentially of at least about 50% to less than 100% of a maltodextrin syrup having a solids content of about 60-80%, 0 to about 50% of water, and an effective amount of a preservative. The maltodextrin syrup is prepared from a converted or a non-converted, chemically derivatized granular starch having an amylose content of 40% or less, by a high solids, single phase enzyme conversion process. The maltodextrin has (i) substituents in an amount sufficient to provide a degree of substitution between greater than about 0.01 and less than about 0.50; (ii) a reducing sugar content of about 5-19 dextrose equivalent; and (iii) a polymodal molecular weight distribution having one peak between about 630-1600 daltons and at least one other peak between about 1600-2,500,000 daltons. A preferred remoistenable adhesive consists essentially of about 15-90% of polyvinyl acetate, ethylene vinyl acetate, or mixtures thereof; about 10-85% of the above maltodextrin syrup; and about 75% water.

Waxy flour products exhibiting noncohesive textures and methods of making same are disclosed, with an example of the method comprising the steps of: Obtaining a waxy flour; and heat treating the waxy flour, wherein the pH of the waxy flour is not adjusted during this method.
摘要:
High amylose flour may be processed by a short hydrothermal treatment to increase its total dietary fiber (TDF) content. These flours may be prepared by heating a high amylose flour at a total water content of from about 10 to 50% by weight at a temperature of from about 80 to 160° C., for about 0.5 to 15 minutes at target temperature. This invention further relates to products which contain the high TDF flour, including food products.
