Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) and ferulic acid (FA) on the properties of rice starch (RS), including gelatinization, thermodynamic, rheological parameters, and freeze-thaw stability. Rapid viscosity analysis (RVA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rheological analysis, and freeze-thaw stability analysis were performed. The results showed that the presence of IDF and FA could significantly delay the short-term retrogradation of RS, especially at high FA concentrations. Rheological tests showed that IDF was not conducive for the elasticity, viscosity enhancement, and system stability of the starch gels. However, FA could offset the deterioration of the system caused by IDF and further improve the gel properties. The presence of IDF and FA weakened the freeze-thaw stability of the starch gel, unlike their single action on the starch gel, correspondingly. The results show that FA could alleviate the degradation of RS gel performance caused by IDF in the ternary system. The findings provide potential possibilities for improvements in the quality of rice starch gel-based products.
