Starch-guest complexes interactions: Molecular mechanisms, effects on starch and functionality.
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition 2023 March 13
Starch is a natural, abundant, renewable and biodegradable plant-based polymer that exhibits a variety of functional properties, including the ability to thicken or gel solutions, form films and coatings, and act as encapsulation and delivery vehicles. In this review, we first describe the structure of starch molecules and discuss the mechanisms of their interactions with guest molecules. Then, the effects of starch-guest complexes on gelatinization, retrogradation, rheology and digestion of starch are discussed. Finally, the potential applications of starch-guest complexes in the food industry are highlighted. Starch-guest complexes are formed due to physical forces, especially hydrophobic interactions between non-polar guest molecules and the hydrophobic interiors of amylose helices, as well as hydrogen bonds between some guest molecules and starch. Gelatinization, retrogradation, rheology and digestion of starch-based materials are influenced by complex formation, which has important implications for the utilization of starch as a functional and nutritional ingredient in food products. Controlling these interactions can be used to create novel starch-based food materials with specific functions, such as texture modifiers, delivery systems, edible coatings and films, fat substitutes and blood glucose modulators.
