Novel Type of Slowly Digested Starch Complex with Antioxidant Properties.
Biomacromolecules(2024)
摘要
With the increasing number of diabetic patients in the world, there is an urgent requirement to reduce the incidence of diabetes. It is considered that a viable prophylactic treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus is to reduce starch digestibility and oxidative stress. In this study, a novel type of slowly digested starch [pea starch (PS)-gingerol complex] was fabricated to evaluate its in vitro enzymatic digestibility and antioxidant activities. Theoretical and experimental analyses showed that PS can encapsulate gingerols with long alkyl chains to form starch-gingerol complexes, which are further stacked into a mixture of V6- and V7-crystallites. These complexes, in particular the PS-10-gingerol complex, showed high resistance to amylolysis and good antioxidant activities. This study demonstrates that these novel starch-gingerol complexes have the potential to deliver antioxidants encapsulated in starch with slow-digesting properties and reduce oxidative stress. Moreover, this new type of slowly digested starch with antioxidant properties showed great potential in the prevention of type 2 diabetes.
