Non-GMO 고아밀로스 밀가루의 전분관련 특성 연구

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the effects of the amylose content of wheat on flour quality characteristics with a focus on starch-related properties. Methods: Three varieties of wheat flour (W, N, and H flour) milled from waxy, normal, and non-GMO high amylose wheat, respectively, were used for analyzing the amylose and total starch contents, pasting and gelatinization properties using rapid visco analyzer and differential scanning calorimetry, and the crystallinity using an X-ray diffractometer. In addition, the in vitro starch digestibility of the flour samples was measured. Results: Compared to the N and W flour, the pasting viscosity of the H flour little increased by suppressed swelling of starch granules. H flour gelatinized at a higher temperature with a smaller enthalpy than the N and W flour. The crystallinity pattern in H flour was observed as B-type, compared to the N and W flours as A-types. The rapidly digestible starch and slowly digestible starch contents of the H flour were significantly lower than those of the N and W flour, but the resistant starch content was significantly higher. Conclusions: Overall results confirmed that the H flour could be successfully used as an ingredient for resistant starch. Besides, H flour can be used without dilution of gluten in bread or noodle making, which would be advantageous compared to commercially available resistant starch ingredients.
