  2. Hydrogenated starch hydrolysates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogenated_starch_hydro...

    Hydrogenated starch hydrolysates (HSHs), also known as polyglycitol syrup (INS 964), are mixtures of several sugar alcohols (a type of sugar substitute). Hydrogenated starch hydrolysates were developed by the Swedish company Lyckeby Starch in the 1960s. [1] The HSH family of polyols is an approved food ingredient in Canada, Japan, and Australia.

  3. Starch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starch

    Maltodextrin, a lightly hydrolyzed (DE 10–20) starch product used as a bland-tasting filler and thickener. Various glucose syrups (DE 30–70), also called corn syrups in the US, viscous solutions used as sweeteners and thickeners in many kinds of processed foods. Dextrose (DE 100), commercial glucose, prepared by the complete hydrolysis of ...

  4. Amylopectin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylopectin

    Amylopectin / ˌ æ m ɪ l oʊ ˈ p ɛ k t ɪ n / is a water-insoluble [1] [2] polysaccharide and highly branched polymer of α-glucose units found in plants. It is one of the two components of starch, the other being amylose. Relation of amylopectin to starch granule. Plants store starch within specialized organelles called amyloplasts. To ...

  5. Dextrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dextrin

    Starch hydrolyses during roasting under acidic conditions, and short-chained starch parts partially rebranch with α-(1,6) bonds to the degraded starch molecule. [5] See also Maillard reaction . Dextrins are white, yellow, or brown powders that are partially or fully water-soluble, yielding optically active solutions of low viscosity .

  6. Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylase

    Another form of amylase, β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2 ) (alternative names: 1,4-α-D-glucan maltohydrolase; glycogenase; saccharogen amylase) is also synthesized by bacteria, fungi, and plants. Working from the non-reducing end, β-amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of the second α-1,4 glycosidic bond, cleaving off two glucose units at a

  7. Isomaltooligosaccharide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomaltooligosaccharide

    The manufacturing process controls the degree of polymerization (dp) and the α(1,6)-linkages to ensure a consistent quality of IMO from different starch sources. The starch is first converted, by means of simple enzymatic hydrolysis , into high maltose syrup with di-, tri and oligosaccharides (2, 3 or more glucose units) having α(1,4 ...

  8. Hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis

    Generic hydrolysis reaction. (The 2-way yield symbol indicates a chemical equilibrium in which hydrolysis and condensation are reversible.). Hydrolysis (/ h aɪ ˈ d r ɒ l ɪ s ɪ s /; from Ancient Greek hydro- 'water' and lysis 'to unbind') is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks one or more chemical bonds.

  9. Starch gelatinization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starch_gelatinization

    Damaged starch can be produced, for example, during the wheat milling process, or when drying the starch cake in a starch plant. [5] There is an inverse correlation between gelatinization temperature and glycemic index. [4] High amylose starches require more energy to break up bonds to gelatinize into starch molecules.
