Preparation of modified tapioca starch with mixture of adipic acid and acetanhydride

Native starch has limitations in food industry applications such as high tendency toward retrogradation, low thermal resistance and shear resistance. Therefore starch is often modified in different ways to change and improve its performance. The aim of this research was to prepare tapioca starch mod...

Summary:Native starch has limitations in food industry applications such as high tendency toward retrogradation, low thermal resistance and shear resistance. Therefore starch is often modified in different ways to change and improve its performance. The aim of this research was to prepare tapioca starch modified with mixture of adipic acid and acetanhydride and to determine its properties (gelatinization, retrogradation and rheological properties, solubility and water holding capacity). Compared to native starch, modified starch had lower gelatinization temperature, higher peak viscosity and lower solubility. In adition, paste viscosity increased by modification, as well as stability during shearing at high temperatures.
