Extraction and Modification of Sorghum Starch and its Characterization
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF TREND IN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, 7 (3):
769-774 (June 2023)Abstract
Sorghum is a widely cultivated cereal crop that has the potential to be an excellent source of starch. Starch extracted from sorghum has been gaining attention due to its unique properties and its potential applications in various industries, including food, paper, and textile. Modified starch has been found to improve the functional properties of starch, such as increased water holding capacity, better stability, and improved gelling properties. The hydrothermal modification HMT method has been reported to be an effective technique for modifying the properties of starch. In this study, we aimed to extract and modify sorghum starch using the HMT method and evaluate its properties, including moisture content, ash content, fat analysis, protein content, and water holding capacity. The findings of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the potential use of sorghum starch in various industries and highlight the potential of the HMT method as a tool for modifying starch properties.
