title: Effects of removal of surface proteins on physicochemical and structural properties of A- and B-starch isolated from normal and waxy wheat.
abstract: The effects of protein removal on the physicochemical and structural properties of normal and waxy wheat and their A- and B-type granule fractions were investigated. No evident changes were observed in the morphological, birefringence pattern and X-ray diffraction pattern after treatment, but there was evidence showing that the relative crystallinity, swelling power and percentage syneresis of all samples were significant increased. Protein removal treatment increased the peak, setback, final viscosity, breakdown viscosity of normal and waxy native wheat starch, and their A- and B-type starch granule fractions, whereas it decreased the pasting temperature, peak time and trough viscosity. Meanwhile, the thermal transition temperatures (To, Tp, Tc) and gelatinization temperature range (ΔTr) of normal and waxy wheat and their isolated A- and B-type granules were increased, but the enthalpy decrease slightly. The different genetic factors and amylose content in normal and waxy wheat starch and their A- and B-type wheat starch granules fractions were related to the different physicochemical and structural characteristics of those starches.
