Self-assembly of ratooning rice starch nanoparticles under debranching treatment and their effects on the texture of rice-flour gels.
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) have a high specific surface area, small particle size, and good biocompatibility. As safe and effective texturizing ingredients, they have attracted attention for improving the texture of starch-based gel foods. In this study, SNPs were prepared by pullulanase debranching and self-assembly...
