Yam starch films were produced by thermal gelatinization of starch suspensions using
different starch and glycerol concentrations and were compared to control samples without …

Thermal, mechanical and barrier properties of corn, cassava and yam starch films were
determined and the behavior of these three starches films under a controlled storage (64 …

Yam starch films were obtained by casting. Effect of different film thicknesses (0.07, 0.09,
0.11 mm) and concentrations of glycerol (1.30, 1.65 and 2.00% w/w) and starch (3.30, 3.65 …

Yam starch films were prepared by casting using glycerol as plasticizer. The effects of
different film thicknesses (0.07, 0.09, 0.11 mm), glycerol (1.30, 1.65 and 2.00 g/100 g of …

O interesse no emprego de matérias-primas provenientes de recursos renováveis para a
produção de embalagens de alimentos vem crescendo. Dentre os biopolímeros mais …

Yam starch films, formulated with yam starch (4.00 g/100 g of solution) and glycerol (1.30
and 2.00 g/100 g of solution) in filmogenic solution, were employed as packaging to extend …

The physical, molecular, and functional properties of corn, cassava, and yam starches were
related to the film properties of these starches. Corn, cassava, and yam starches contained …

Blends of native starches can be used to obtain special sensory properties avoiding the use
of chemically modified starches. The mixture design approach was used to analyze the …

Aiming to find alternative uses of yam (Dioscorea alata) in the food industry, three products
(flour, starch and mucilage) were obtained form yam tubers and characterized. Flours were …

The functional properties of mixtures of maize, cassava and yam starches and their
relationships with microstructural characteristics were investigated. Experiments were …
