- - Method for production of slowly digestive and cold water-viscous starch by heat-moisture treatment and alcoholic-alkaline treatment

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing common corn starch having improved cold water thickening and lipidation properties through water-heat treatment and alcohol-alkali double deformation treatment. In the present invention, an alcohol-alkali method was applied to a sample having high resistance starch in water-heat-treated starch to develop a starch having both a high cold water viscosity and a cold water solubility at a content higher than that of commercially available general corn starch. The starch prepared according to the present invention has increased viscosity and solubility even in cold water, so that it can be utilized in various food manufacturing processes, and can have glucose control with low digestibility compared with general starch food due to high resistance starch content. Therefore, diabetic patients can be characterized as health-oriented starches for blood glucose control and weight loss and maintenance.
