Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of pectin on molecular structural changes in starch during digestion
Yeming Bai,Yeming Bai,Peng Wu,Kai Wang,Cheng Li,Cheng Li,Enpeng Li,Robert G. Gilbert,Robert G. Gilbert +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, pectin's effect on starch digestibility rate and evolution of starch molecular structure during digestion using amyloglucosidase and pancreatin was investigated using size-exclusion chromatography and fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A starch molecular basis for aging-induced changes in pasting and textural properties of waxy rice.
TL;DR: The gelatinization behavior of rice flour and isolated starch and the texture of cooked rice were examined both for fresh and aged samples successively to suggest ways in which some improved functional properties could be obtained with less expenditure for storage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competition between Granule Bound Starch Synthase and Starch Branching Enzyme in Starch Biosynthesis.
Huaxin Han,Chuantian Yang,Jihui Zhu,Lixia Zhang,Yeming Bai,Enpeng Li,Robert G. Gilbert,Robert G. Gilbert +7 more
TL;DR: Finding statistically valid correlations between the values of these parameters showed that GBSSI and SBEI compete for substrates during rice starch biosynthesis, and synthesis of amylose short chains involves several enzymes including GBS SI, SBE and SSS (soluble starch synthase).
Journal ArticleDOI
Relations between digestibility and structures of pumpkin starches and pectins
Yeming Bai,Yeming Bai,Mengshan Zhang,Sharat Chandra Atluri,Jialin Chen,Robert G. Gilbert,Robert G. Gilbert +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the molecular structures of pectin and starch from 13 commercial pumpkin varieties were characterized using HPLC and size-exclusion chromatography, and the in vitro digestion kinetics of the boiled flour measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural reasons for inhibitory effects of pectin on α-amylase enzyme activity and in-vitro digestibility of starch
Yeming Bai,Yeming Bai,Sharat Chandra Atluri,Zhongwei Zhang,Michael J. Gidley,Enpeng Li,Robert G. Gilbert,Robert G. Gilbert +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of pectins on porcine pancreatic α-amylase activity and rheological changes in solutions were also studied, as were the in vitro digestibility of maize starch with and without pectin.
