Abstract
This study aimed to compare the regulatory effects of blue honeysuckle anthocyanins (BHA), blueberry anthocyanins (BBA), and blackcurrant anthocyanins (BCA) on the in vitro digestibility of corn starch in terms of starch physicochemical properties and structure, as well as α-amylase inhibition. The results revealed that adding all three anthocyanins lowered digestibility in the following order: BHA > BCA > BBA. The terminal digestibility (C∞) decreased from 73.84 % to 57.3 % with the addition of 10 % BHA, while the resistant starch (RS) content increased from 4.39 % to 48.82 %. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicated that anthocyanins and starch interacted through noncovalent bonds. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis showed that the gelatinization enthalpy was dramatically lowered in all three anthocyanin groups, with 10 % BHA producing a 38.58 % drop. Rheological property analysis showed that anthocyanins increased the apparent viscosity and modulus with starch. The interaction between anthocyanin and α-amylase was mainly through the formation of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic forces. This research provides theoretical guidance for developing low glycemic index (GI) anthocyanin starch-based foods.
