Functionality and antioxidant properties of maize starch modified with phenolic extracts from grape pomace and condensed tannin sorghum bran under alkaline conditions

In the research I successfully produced phenolic-modified starches, as a potential ingredient for functional foods, with proanthocyanidin-rich extracts from industrial wastes, grape pomace and sorghum bran, under alkaline conditions, and characterised same using a wide array of molecular and rheological tools. The phenolic-modified starches showed low digestibility and in vitro antioxidant activity compared to starch without phenolics. The research provides more insight into the interaction between starch and phenolic compounds under alkaline conditions to produce phenolic-modified starches that can be used to ameliorate the occurrence of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, obesity and cancer.
