Abstract

The starch-lipid complex between the pea starch (PSt) and glycerol monolaurate (GM) was prepared using ultrasound with different amplitudes, durations and application sequences. Fourier-transform infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra showed the formation of amylose-lipid complex between PSt and GM in the ultrasonic field. Stronger diffraction intensities were observed in samples treated by ultrasonication, whereas the thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the thermal stability of starch was improved by the formation of the V-type inclusion complexes. An ultrasound pre-treatment prior to the addition of a guest molecule (UC) was more favorable to induce the formation of an amylose-lipid complexes than ultrasound treatment after PSt was incorporated with GM (CU). The UC-treated samples showed stronger diffraction intensities, higher melting enthalpy values and enzyme-resistant than that of CU-treated PSt-GM complexes.
