17. Cassava Processing: Safety and Protein Fortification
Abstract : Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important and cheap source of carbohydrate in tropical regions, particularly in Sub-Sahara Africa. Cassava as a human food is a good source of energy as it has a comparable high energy density of about 610 kJ/100 g fresh root. READ MORE

18. On the two forms of amylose-lipid complexes
Abstract : This thesis is about the formation of amylose-lipid complexes, and their properties. Two forms of superstructures can be identified. Complex form I has more randomly distributed helices, while the structure of form II is crystalline and therefore exhibits the typical V-pattern in X-ray diffraction analyses. READ MORE

19. Interactions between surfactants and starch : from starch granules to amylose solutions
Abstract : Starch is a mixture of two polysaccharides, amylose (AM) and amylopectin, which occurs naturally in the form of microscopic granules that are abundantly found in tubers, roots, cereal grains and fruits. In order to bring out their functional properties as thickeners and texture enhancers, starch granules are often disrupted by heating in excess water. READ MORE

20. Interactions between Amylose, Native Potato, Hydrophobically Modified Potato and High Amylopectin Potato Starches
Abstract : The behaviour of different starches and their mixtures was investigated using several analysis techniques, i.e. small-deformation oscillatory measurements (rheological measurements), differential scanning calo-rimetry (DSC), light microscopy, and UV spectrophotometry (turbidi-metry).
