“…(3)(4)(5) The V-amylose complexes have been shown to form with a diverse range of compounds such as alcohols, (6)(7)(8) fatty acids, (9) potassium hydroxide (KOH), (10) iodine, (11) flavor compounds, (12)(13)(14)(15) and hydrophobic organic polymers. (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) V-amylose complexes have shown potential in various food-related applications such as nanoencapsulation of sensitive bioactive (23,24) or flavor compounds, (12,14) formation of amylose nanotubes, (25) and modification of starch rheological functionality. (26,27) Although presently V-amylose in not yet commercially applied as an ingredient in food or pharmaceutical systems, its has been associated with starch functionality modulations that include modification of starch pasting properties, (27,28) reduced retrogradation, (29) and increase of the resistant starch content in starch.…”
