Highlights a) HMT treatment used for mung bean starch modification using CCRD. b) RS level was increased in HMT starches. c) Swelling power, swelling volume, solubility was decreased in HMT starches.d) Increase in gelatinization temperature and decrease in melting enthalpy were noticed in HMT starches.e) Reduction in whiteness and increment of peak intensity were perceived in HMT starches. f) Gel hardness was found to be increased in HMT starches.
IntroductionThe formulation of well-designed food products always being a very interesting sector in food science and technology. Based on the data stated by World Health Organization [1], diabetic patients have been risen from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014 leading to the cause of major deaths in 2030. Starch is considered as a significant carbohydrate for human regime existing due to its high source of energy. Since starch is very easily digestible in small intestine and causes increment of blood glucose level, its consumption is very much detrimental for diabetes and obsessed patients. Consequently, it is abundant task to frame food products which can imitate with fiber materials. Resistant starch (RS) is getting acceptance among several food scientists and manufacturers [2]. RS, the starch fraction which is not digestible in smaller intestine and can be fermented through microflora in colon, lowering down its pH and prevents causes of colon cancer The valuable result of RS has been concise by several authors, which inhibits colon cancer, reduces insulin emic reaction to food, a valuable medium for the microorganisms in the intestine, preventive against formation of stones in gall bladder, controls higher cholesterol development, regulates fat accretion, and helps in assimilation of minerals [3]. Therefore RS can be an alternative approach for production of new, innovative functional food products especially for diabetes and obsessed individuals.The manner of consumption is influenced by accessibility of grains, expediency, zone and food practices of people [4]. Agriculture Ministry data of India illustrates that there is a massive intensification of legume production during 1977 to 2014 from 11.97 million tons to 19.25 million tons [5]. Due to unfavorable circumstances of weather the production rate minimizes to 17.19 million tons in 2015. Mung bean (Vigna radiata) is a commendatory legume produced in India and distributed to various nations of the domain due to its high production throughout country but its application is very fewer. Carbohydrate content in legumes is very high and has appreciable source of starch. A most promising part is played by mung bean in various groups of legumes in India; hence it stays essential to identify value added food using mung bean starch. Subsequently, it is needed to examine suitably modified mung bean starches which can be a substitute to ignore overly
AbstractThe current study is focused on modification of mung bean starch which is a good source of leguminous carbohydrate for production of functional food. Combin...
