Complexation between rice starch and cellulose nanocrystal from black tea residues: Gelatinization properties and digestibility in vitro.
International journal of biological macromolecules(2023)
Abstract
In this work, cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) was extracted from black tea waste and its effects on the physicochemical properties of rice starch were explored. It was revealed that CNC improved the viscosity of starch during pasting and inhibited its short-term retrogradation. The addition of CNC changed the gelatinization enthalpy and improved the shear resistance, viscoelasticity, and short-range ordering of starch paste, which meant that CNC made the starch paste system more stable. The interaction of CNC with starch was analyzed using quantum chemistry methods, and it was demonstrated that the hydrogen bonds were formed between starch molecules and the hydroxyl groups of CNC. In addition, the digestibility of starch gels containing CNC was significantly decreased because CNC could dissociate and act as an inhibitor of amylase. This study further expanded the understanding of the interactions between CNC and starch during processing, which could provide a reference for the application of CNC in starch-based foods and the development of functional foods with a low glycemic index.
