Role of fatty acid in governing the aggregation structure and functional properties of granular starch-fatty acid complexes during ultrasonic treatment.
To investigate how fatty acids (FA) modulate the structural evolution of granular rice starch-FA complexes under ultrasound (40-60 °C), lauric acid (LA), stearic acid (SA), oleic acid (OA), and linoleic acid (LOA) were selected to form complexes with rice starch. Ultrasonication alone partially reduced the structural o...
