Faba bean is a protein-rich starchy grain that is underutilised in the UK. The starch of faba
bean can be modified using environmentally friendly methods like dry heat treatment (DHT) …

Native starches are not suitable for industrial use and must be modified for improved
functionality. In this study, the effect of moisture preconditioning and infrared heating time on …

Spoilage of cassava root begins immediately after harvest, but its shelf-life could be
enhanced by adopting freezing as a storage method. This study investigated the …

The nitrogen (N) influences the growth of sweet potato. However, it is unclear whether the
different levels of N can affect starch physicochemical properties. In this study, 9 different …

The physicochemical characteristics in terms of composition, pasting properties, in vitro
starch digestibility, morphology, XRD, FT‐IR, and functional properties of starch, isolated …

The modification of starch through agricultural practices is becoming increasingly significant
for producing healthy foodstuffs and raw materials for industrial applications, consequently …

Cassava root spoils rapidly after harvest but can be well preserved by storing under
freezing. This study investigated the functional, chemical and physicochemical properties of …

Cassava (Manihot esculenta crantz) is a major food crop in Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, the
Pacific, and South America, where it feeds around 800 million people. Its roots are an …

This study aimed to investigate the effects of acid or alkali modification of isolated cassava
starch (ICS) on its physicochemical properties. Acetic acid concentrations of 5%, 10%, and …

BACKGROUND Vacuum package storage is commonly applied to reduce postharvest
deterioration in minimally processed cassava roots. However, the influence of vacuum …
