    Abstract:
    Normal and waxy maize starches with and without removal of starch granule surface lipids (SGSLs) were crosslinked by POCl3 (0.01 %, 0.1 % and 1 %). Crosslinked starches showed lower swelling power and solubility, but higher pasting viscosity, pseudoplasticity, thixotropy, storage modulus and loss modulus. Crosslinking increased the double helical structure but decreased the crystallinity for waxy maize starch. The phosphorus content of crosslinked waxy maize starches after SGSLs removal increased, indicating SGSLs removal promoted crosslinking. SGSLs removal increased G' and G" for crosslinked waxy maize starches. SGSLs removal increased SP and solubility and decreased pasting and rheological parameters of starches. With increased POCl3 dosage, the effect of SGSLs removal on starch properties was gradually suppressed by crosslinking. Waxy and normal maize starches showed significantly different changes with crosslinking and SGSLs removal, and the presence of amylose seemed to impede the effect of crosslinking and SGSLs removal. The removal of SGSLs could extend the application of crosslinked starch in frozen foods, drinks, and canned foods as thickener and stabilizer, due to its better hydrophilicity and viscous liquid-like rheological properties. The study will assist carbohydrate chemists and food processors in developing new food products.
