Brazilian pine seeds (Araucaria angustifolia) or pinhão are popularly consumed in South America as a seasonal food. Pinhão of seven accessions were supplied by Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa/Forestry) germplasm bank. Starch was isolated from those seeds and characterized. Structures and functional properties of starch, including amylose content, molecular weight (Mw) and gyration...
The objective of this study was to understand physicochemical characteristics and in vitro digestibility of starch from eleven common types of beans grown in Brazil. The bean starch granules showed oval or kidney shapes with indentations, median diameters (D50) from 22.2 to 33.5 μm and had amylose contents from 27.0 to 35.9%. The molecular weight and gyration radius of amylopectin ranged 6.5 × 108...
