Abstract

ABSTRACTZero amylose starch isolated from hull‐less barley (HB) showed a typical A‐type diffraction pattern. The X‐ray analysis suggested that granules of zero amylose (SB94794) and 5% amylose (CDC Candle) HB starches had lower crystallinity than did commercial waxy corn starch. Differential scanning calorimetry showed lower transition temperatures and endothermal enthalpies for the HB starches than for the waxy corn starch. The zero amylose HB starch showed a Brabender pasting curve similar to that of waxy corn starch, but with lower pasting and peak temperatures and a higher peak viscosity. Noteworthy characteristics of zero amylose HB starch were its low pasting temperature and high paste clarity and freezethaw stability, which make this starch useful for many food and industrial applications.
