“…However, native sweet potato starch (SPS) exhibits higher peak viscosity, intolerance of shear, poor freeze-thaw stability, and easy retrogradation, which could not meet the requirements of SPS-based food products (Hoover, 2001;Hung & Morita, 2005). Consequently, physical, chemical, and enzymatic methods have been investigated to modify the physical and chemical properties of SPS (Gou et al, 2019;Guo, Tao, Cui, & Janaswamy, 2019;Lee & Yoo, 2011;Zhou, Zhang, Chen, & Chen, 2017). Recently, non-starch hydrocolloids have been used to improve the property of native starch (Charoenrein, Tatirat, Rengsutthi, & Thongngam, 2011;Chen, Tian, Tong, Zhang, & Jin, 2017;Choi & Yoo, 2009).…”
