Abstract:In order to reduce the digestion rate of corn starch(CS)and increase the content of resistant starch(RS),this study used heat moisture treatment(HMT)to prepare starch-protein complexes by combining CS with a soy protein isolate(SPI)or ovalbumin(OVA).The effects of the mass fractions of proteins(5%,10%,15%,and 20%)on the physicochemical,rheological,and digestive properties of the starch-protein complexes were studied.Differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic viscoelasticity revealed that the swelling of starch granules was limited by the addition of proteins.X-ray diffraction data showed that the crystallinity of corn starch decreased from 28.75%to 24.92%and 25.29%after the addition of SPI or OVA,respectively.Scanning electron microscopy showed that the added proteins wrapped around the starch granules and acted as a physical barrier inhibiting starch digestion.Moreover,in vitro digestion analysis showed that SPI and OVA additions lowered the rapidly digestible starch(RDS)content of corn starch by 10.39%and 14.9%,respectively.In conclusion,addition of both proteins decreases starch digestibility,and the OVA has a stronger inhibitory effect on the digestibility of starch than SPI.The findings of this study provide insights for developing low glycemic index foods containing starch-protein complexes.
