    Jack Beans are a type of high-protein legume that can produce high nutritional value. One of the processed superfoods from Jack beans is tempeh. Soaking is essential in making tempeh as a pre-fermentation process utilizing microbial enzymes to increase product nutrition. The metagenomic analysis is a novel technique to know microbial communities based on culture-independent microorganisms. This study aims to determine the diversity of microbes in the soaking process at 12 hours and 24 hours. This analysis found ten OTUs genera, namely Prevotella, Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Staphylococcus, Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Saccharofermentants, Klebsiella, Pantoea, and Acinetobacter. Phylum Firmicutes is dominant in the soaking of Jack beans with a difference of 53.24% 12 h soaking time and 47.89% 24 h soaking time. This finding contributes to controlling the quality production of making tempeh.

    Banana is a tropical fruit crop that is consumed at large, not only because of the quantity produced but also because it serves the calorific needs of millions of people. Banana is a potential source of high starch content (more than 60%). The application of starch for various purposes is dependent upon its structural, physicochemical, and functional properties. A native starch does not possess all required properties for specific use in the food product. To improve its application, starch can be modified physically, chemically, and enzymatically. Each of these modification methods provides different characteristics to the modified starch. This review aims to examine the chemical composition, granule morphology, crystallinity, pasting, thermal properties, and digestibility of banana starch, and discusses the various modifications and potential applications of banana starch in the food industry.

    The properties of native flour and starch were compared and the changes in their properties were evaluated following ozonation at 100 and 200 ppm. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that crystallinity index of both ozonated banana flour and starch decreased by 1.6%, B-type pattern of native banana flour and starch did not change following ozonation. The presence of higher amounts of non-starch components decreased the sensitivity of flour to the oxidation, as indicated by the lower carboxyl content compared to that of starch. The flour also required higher ozone concentration than starch to alter its properties, particularly pasting properties. Ozonation tended to increase peak, hold and final viscosity of both. A prominent change in the freeze thaw stability of both flour and starch following ozonation was the most encouraging result. Ozonation also improved the solubility of flour which was important to reduce cooking loss when applied in a range of food products. The solubility...

    Factors affecting the extent and rate constant of starch digestion have been determined by applying logarithm of slope (LOS) plot approach to banana starch modified by heat moisture treatment (HMT) at different temperatures (100, 110 and 120 °C) and time (4 and 8 h). LOS plot result showed that native and HMT-starches exhibited two separate digestion rate constants (k1 in rapid and k2 in slower phase). The digestibility increased with the increase in temperature and time of HMT in which the amount of digestible starch at slower phase (C2∞) predominantly contributed to the increase in total digestible starch (total C∞). Small change of the digestible starch in rapid phase (C1∞) might be attributed to the comparatively intact granule surfaces and the relatively small change in ratio of ordered to disordered α-glucan chains at the granule surface as observed by FTIR-ATR. Meanwhile the increase in C2∞ might be linked to the decrease in crystallinity as observed by XRD. Compared to the native starch, denser packed-structure characterising an A-type crystalline structure in HMT-starches is a key factor determining the lower k2 in HMT-starches. The densely packed-matrices might slow down the amylase diffusion through the granule to reach digestible α-glucan chains.

    In complex food matrix, blending starch with non-starch hydrocolloids such as gum arabic, xanthan gum, guar gum, carrageenan, locust bean gum, and pectin may impact starch digestibility, pasting and physicochemical properties. The starch-hydrocolloids blending have specific application in the food product as an emulsifier, gelling agent thickener, stabilizer and inhibiting formation of ice and sugar crystal. As a thickener, hydrocolloid can increase the viscosity of food products and inhibit the accessibility of α-amylase to the starch granules. Effect of hydrocolloid on starch digestibility, pasting and physicochemical properties depends on starch source, type and concentration of hydrocolloid, and method of preparation starch-hydrocolloid mixture. This review summarized several studies about the effect of starch-hydrocolloid interaction on the starch digestibility, pasting and physicochemical properties. Furthermore, the mechanism of starch-hydrocolloid interaction and their applications in food product are also discussed. The pupose of this review is to provide information of several applications and recent utilization trend of starch-hydrocolloid blend in food systems.

    Role of milieu pH at 5, 8 and 11 has been investigated to determine the effectiveness of cross-linking by STPP (Sodium tripolyphosphate) to banana flour. Change in physicochemical and pasting properties due to the treatments have been studied. The characterization by XRD and FTIR has also been carried out to reveal the diffraction pattern and the change in the chemical functional group. The result showed that cross-linking at the pH studied did not change the diffraction pattern of banana flour. An investigation using FTIR indicated that peak absorbance at wavenumber 2300 and 928 cm−1 increased following the treatment with the increase of pH, suggesting the formation of diester phosphate and C-O-P linking respectively. Swelling volume and solubility were remarkably affected by crosslinking at pH 11 while freeze-thaw stability at pH 5. The effectiveness of cross-linking on changing the pasting properties was not affected by the pH but cross-linking per se decreased the breakdown visc...

    Banana flour var nangka has been oxidised using hydrogen peroxide at concentration of 1 to 3 % using native banana flour as a control. Functional and pasting properties and the change in crystalline type have been compared following the modification. Investigation using XRD showed that oxidation by hydrogen peroxide decreased the crystallinity from 56.9% in the native to around 52% in the oxidised flour. The crystalline type however remained unchanged (B type). There was no remarkable difference of properties following oxidation at various concentration of hydrogen peroxide, suggesting that the smallest concentration in the present study (1%) was sufficient to modify the banana flour. In terms of functional properties, oxidation increased swelling volume, freeze thaw stability and gel strength but decreased solubility, water absorption capacity and whiteness degree. Other parameters of pasting properties were not significantly affected by oxidation in the present range of concentrat...
