Abstract
The influence of incorporating amino acids and fatty acids into water chestnut starch (WS) to form ternary blends was examined in this research. The effects of methionine (Met), histidine (His), oleic acid (C-18:1), and linolenic acid (C-18:3) on the physicochemical characteristics of WS were assessed. The ternary blends containing amino and fatty acids showed reduced swelling power, solubility index and paste clarity, but enhanced freeze-thaw stability. The complex index % indicated the highest affinity for blends of methionine and oleic acid with WS. This study underscores how various amino and fatty acids, along with their interactions with WS to form complexes, affect starch properties. These findings have significant implications for the application of ternary blends in food science and related fields, offering invaluable insights that could drive innovation and optimization in the development of novel food products with enhanced functional properties and stability.
