Microstructural and techno-functional properties of cassava starch modified by ultrasound

Open access
Monroy, Yuliana, Rivero, Sandra, García, María A.·2018·Ultrasonics Sonochemistry

Abstract

• Ultrasound treatment induced microstructural changes on cassava starch granules. • The more drastic ultrasound treatment condition led to total starch gelatinization. • FTIR-ATR and DRX results corroborated starch structural disorganization. • Starch ultrasound treatment with ice-bath conditioning enhanced paste stability. • Relationships between microstructural and technological properties were established. This work was focused on the correlation between the structural and techno-functional properties of ultrasound treated cassava starch for the preparation of tailor-made starch-based ingredients and derivatives. Furthermore, the effect of treatment time, sample conditioning and ultrasound amplitude was studied. Ultrasonic treatment of cassava starch induced structural disorganization and microstructural changes evidenced mainly in the morphological characteristics of the granules and in their degrees of crystallinity. These structural modifications were supported by ATR-FTIR and SEM and CSLM studies as well as DRX and thermal analysis. The selection of the processing conditions is critical due to the complete gelatinization of the starch was produced with the maximum amplitude tested and without temperature control. Rheological dynamical analysis indicated changes at the molecular level in starch granules due to the ultrasound treated, revealing the paste stability under refrigeration condition. PCA allow to establish the interrelationships between microstructural and techno-functional properties. In summary, different starch derivatives could be obtained by adjusting the ultrasound treatment conditions depending on their potential applications.

  • These interactions, together with the formation of shorter chains, have greater potential for hydrogen bonding with water molecules, promoting the formation of a stronger and more cohesive elastic network.

    “These interactions, together with the formation of shorter chains have greater potential for hydrogen bonding with water molecules, promoting the formation of a stronger and more cohesive elastic network (Monroy et al., 2018).”

    Section 3.3 (Rheological behavior) proposes that ultrasound-induced short polymer chains reassociate through hydrogen bonds to form a more elastic three-dimensional network, and reports stronger gels under more severe treatment. Section 3.1 (Microstructural analysis) separately describes water molecules hydrogen-bonding with free hydroxyl groups. The paper does not say that shorter chains bond more readily with water or that bonding with water produces the stronger network. (LLM, conf=0.87)

  • The decrease in 1022/995 ratio may indicate a reduction in amorphous content or changes in the hydration state of starch helices, indicating weakening of short-range order caused by cavitation.

    “However, a slight numerical decrease in the 1022/995 ratio of the treated samples compared to the control was observed, which may indicate a reduction in amorphous content or changes in the hydration state of starch helices, indicating the weakening of short-range order caused by cavitation (Hu et al., 2019; Monroy et al., 2018).”

    From Ultrasonication-induced modifications in functional, thermal, and structural properties of chickpea flour under different time and temperature conditions (2027) · cites this paper as Monroy et al., 2018

    In the FTIR discussion (Fig. 4a; page not specified in our copy), Monroy et al. associate the 1022/995 ratio with amorphous regions and identify the 995 cm⁻¹ band with hydrated carbohydrate helices. That supports the proposed interpretation of a lower ratio, but the paper reports an increase in the ratio after ultrasound treatment and does not interpret a decrease as cavitation-induced weakening of short-range order.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
