Effects of hawthorn addition on the physicochemical properties and hydrolysis of corn starch
Hawthorn powder were mixed with corn starch and heated in water to make corn starch-hawthorn mixtures (CS-Haw) and then the physicochemical properties and hydrolysis characteristics of the mixtures were measured. Results showed that the addition of hawthorn powder decreased the viscosity of corn starch, and prolonged the pasting temperature, while the microstructure analysis indicated that hawthorn particles aggregated on the surfaces of starch granules, reducing the chance of starch contacting with water, then delayed the starch gelatinization. The presence of hawthorn powder also reduced the G' value to varying degrees and the loss tangent of CS-Haw was significantly higher than that of corn starch. The addition of hawthorn powder in large amounts also increased the rapidly digestible starch, while decrease the slowly digestible starch and resistant starch. The present research will provide basic theoretical support for the application of hawthorn in healthy starch food processing.
