Information  at a Glance Contents of the Data Base
  • Wheat starch consists of two types of granules: the smaller spherical granules (1-10 micron) and the larger lenticular granules (20-45 micron). The large starch granules in wheat flour average about 10 % of the total granule number while accounting for about 90 % of the starch granule weight.
  • The world production of wheat starch is about 2 million tons. Wheat starch is used in the baking industry, in the production of adhesives and for conversion into starch sugars.
  • Starch gelatinization is a process of breaking down the intermolecular bonds of starch molecules in the presence of water and heat, allowing the hydrogen bonding sites (the hydroxyl hydrogen and oxygen) to engage more water. This irreversibly dissolves the starch granule in water. Water acts as a plasticizer. Three main processes happen to the starch granule: granule swelling, crystal or double helical melting, and amylose leaching.
  • Pregelatinized starch is starch which has been cooked and then dried in the starch factory on a drum dryer or in an extruder making the starch cold-water-soluble. Spray dryers are used to obtain dry starch sugars and low viscous pregelatinized starch powder.
  • Amongst the different methods available for production of
    pre-gel starch, drum drying is the most economical and the easiest method available compared to the other methods
  • The drum dryer is heated on the inside and turns continuously. In a full-continuous process, the product is applied in a thin film on the outside of the drum and begins to dry immediately. After one rotation, a knife scrapes the dried product off the
    drum surface as a film or as flakes.
  • Pre-gelatinized wheat starches are ideal for applications in which delicate texture, flavour and light color are important
  •  Pregelatinized or “pregel” starches are cold-water soluble starches
  • “Pregel” starches are mainly used in the manufacture of feed for pets and as milk replacers for calves.
  • Pre-gelatinized wheat starch can be used as a thickening agent in instant food products to eliminate heating stage in their production or in manufacturing of the products sensitive to high temperature.
  • Pregelatinized starch act as an excipients in food and pharmaceutical industry. Pregelatinized starch absorbs water quickly which helps in easy digestion therefore it is used as disintegrant.
  • Prominent companies in the global scenario are
    Manildra Group USA, ADM, Cargill, KRONER-STARKE , AGRANA and others
