Definitions
- the invention relates to an improved starch product, products employing it and to processes for making and using it.
- it relates to shear thickening pregelatinized starch and its use in the preparation of a variety of products including foods and comestics.
- starch becomes functional for thickening and texturizing and/or Theologically altering various products, including but not limited to foods, only after being gelatinized or cooked in aqueous slurry beyond a critical temperature (i.e., the gelatinization point) such that the granules swell, absorb water and increase the slurry viscosity.
- a critical temperature i.e., the gelatinization point
- starch manufacturers offer dry starches which have already been cooked for the user, so-called pregelatinized starches. This pregelatinization has commonly been carried out by jet cooking, roll drum drying, extrusion cooking and recently by atomized or spray cooking processes.
- CWS starches cold water swelling starches
- Cold water swelling starches are distinguished from cold water soluble starches because the former retains its granularity while the latter is fully soluble and largely non- granular. It has been accepted or shown by those skilled in the art that further processing with heat, acid and/or shear, as typical in food processing, would tend to reduce the peak viscosities of the pregelatinized starches relative to those initially observed for each prior to such processing stress (see, for example, D. J. Thomas and W. A. Atwell, Starches, 1999).
- Figure 1 is a graph titled " Model Food System Viscosity Profile" which compares the effect shear has on a model food system employing a preferred starch according to the invention with two that are not.
- Figure 2 is a chart showing the Brabender viscosity characterizations of a source potato starch used to produce a preferred starch of the invention in comparison to other source starches, (medium cross-linked potato starch and low cross-linked potato starch), prior to the atomized (spray) cooking process.
- Figure 3 is a graph titled "Basic Salad Dressing Viscosity Profile" which shows the effect of shear on viscosity on salad dressings prepared with a preferred starch of the invention and two other starches.
- Figure 4 is a graph illustrating one difference, namely lack of viscosity build-up under low shear conditions, between a preferred starch of the invention and a CWS highly- crosslinked waxy maize starch.
- significant mechanical action e.g., shear by various mixers, Lightnin'TM Mixer, WaringTM blender, colloid mill, etc.
- the invention provides a process for a new pregelatinized, cold water swelling starch, comprising: providing a highly cross linked, stabilized starch; and heating said starch under conditions of time, temperature and moisture effective to disrupt less than 50% of intact starch granules comprised in said starch and to provide the characteristic that when a slurry of said starch is subjected to high shear the viscosity will increase toward a maximum and retain this viscosity throughout further low shear mixing and holding periods.
- the invention provides a pregelatinized starch product, which exhibits shear-thickening properties, comprising: a highly crosslinked, stabilized and cold water swelling starch having a majority of its starch granules intact and being characterized in that when a slurry of said starch is subjected to moderate to high shear the viscosity will increase toward a maximum and retain that viscosity throughout further low shear mixing and holding periods.
- a highly crosslinked, stabilized and cold water swelling starch having a majority of its starch granules intact and being characterized in that when a slurry of said starch is subjected to moderate to high shear the viscosity will increase toward a maximum and retain that viscosity throughout further low shear mixing and holding periods.
- the preferred starches are root or tuber starches, particularly potato starch, including those derived from white potatoes, yams and sweet potatoes, among others.
- starch is deposited in various plants in the form of minute cold water insoluble granules.
- the sources of starches include seeds of plants such as wheat, sorghum and rice, tubers such as potato (including those derived from white potatoes, yams and sweet potatoes, among others), cassava and arrowroot and the pith of plants such as the sago palm and other sources including tapioca and the like.
- the source of the starch and its processing history will cause its properties to vary.
- the nature of the starch granules and the makeup of the starch can vary among the starches from the various sources.
- the work underlying the invention has been conducted principally on potato starch, but there is no reason known to exclude starches from any particular source.
- starches including other root starches such as arrowroot starch and tapioca starch are included as source materials.
- the skilled worker will vary the processing specific for potato to achieve success for other starches.
- the success in achieving the invention, regardless of source of starch will be determined on the basis of whether a starch meets the criteria of the invention which are: cold water solubility; with a viscosity profile that increases to a maximum with the application of moderate to high shear to a slurry of the starch and maintains that viscosity upon storage or under low shear for at least one week, preferably at least one month thereafter. All successful products will be highly crosslinked and have at least 50% of the starch granules intact in addition to being cold water swelling.
- starches meeting these last criteria will have the unique characteristic of a viscosity profile that increases to a maximum with the application of moderate to high shear to a slurry of the starch and maintains that viscosity upon storage or under low shear.
- the preferred starches are characterized in that slurries of them do not significantly increase viscosity under low shear conditions, the increase being less than 50%, and preferably less than 25%, of the maximum achievable under high shear conditions.
- cold water swelling refers to a pregelatinized starch that maintains its granular shape when rehydrated.
- cold water soluble refers to a pregelatinized starch with little or no granular integrity. The amylose and amylopectin are solublized upon dehydration.
- the term “granularity” means the amount of starch present as intact granules as determined by microscopic examination of a known concentration of starch in aqueous dispersion.
- the term “Granular” refers to starch present as intact granules, whether pregelatinized or uncooked.

- Figure 1 illustrates the above significant characterizing properties of the starch of the invention.
- Figure 1 is a graph titled " Model Food System Viscosity Profile". The data for the figure was obtained for an aqueous food system such as what may be found in a pourable, fat- free salad dressing. The food system was manufactured using three different starch preparations as described in Example 1. Any cold water swelling starch that exhibits a similar increase in viscosity with high shear, e.g., not less than 50% of the values of the preferred starch illustrated in Figure 1 is within the scope of this invention.
- the viscosity after high shear should be double or preferably 6-7 times as high as that exhibited after low shear and should not decrease in viscosity from a maximum by more than about 25%.
- Figure 2 is a chart showing the Brabender viscosity characterizations of the source potato starch used to produce the preferred starch in comparison to other source starches, (medium cross-linked potato starch and low cross-linked potato starch), prior to the atomized (spray) cooking process.
- Preferred is a starch that has a Brabender curve similar to that of the high crosslinked starch with a peak viscosity less than 600 Bradender Units.
- the most preferred starch is potato but could be, especially, other non-cereal starches (e.g. , tapioca or arrow root).
- Figure 3 is a graph titled "Basic Salad Dressing Viscosity Profile" which describes a practical application of this invention.
- Figure 4 is a graph illustrating one difference, namely lack of viscosity build-up, between a preferred starch of the invention, namely a CWS highly-crosslinked potato starch, and a CWS highly-crosslinked waxy maize starch under low shear conditions.
- the graph was prepared by dispersing in separate vessels, 1.4 g each of the starches with 2.8 grams of glycerine and 23.8 grams of water. The samples were then tested using the Instruction Manual procedures (March 1998) for Rapid Visco Analyser series 4 manufactured by Newport Scientific Pty. Ltd., Australia. The following Profile settings were employed: Temperature- 25°C; Initial rpm - 960 rpm for 10 seconds; Run rpm - 60 rpm for 15 minutes.
- the preferred starches are characterized in that slurries of them do not significantly increase viscosity under low shear conditions, the increase being less than 50%, and preferably less than 25%, of the maximum achievable under high shear conditions.
- starch products referred to in all the figures, tables and examples below are defined and characterized as per Table 1.
- Crosslinking was carried out for all using phosphorous oxychloride (POCl 3 ) following standard procedures.
- Table 1 Identification and characterization of starch products referred to in figures, tables and examples
- DS degree of substitution as determined by test method described in The United States Pharmacopoeia (USP 24) pp. 843-844. The same test is used for cellulose as for starch. The assay is also known as the Zeisel Method.
- the invention achieves the above properties for a cold water swelling starch by obtaining a highly crosslinked, stabilized starch and heating this starch under conditions of time, temperature and moisture effective to disrupt less than 50% of intact starch granules comprised in said starch and to provide the characteristics described herein.
- a preferred process for heating is described in a series of U.S. patents (U.S. Patent No. 4,280,851 issued July 28, 1981 and U.S. Patent No. 4,600,472 issued July 15, 1986 to Pitchon, et al, U.S. Patent No. 4,847,371 issued July 11, 1989 to Schara, et al). These patents teach a method for atomized or spray cooking of starch, the process involved, the equipment design, etc.
- the conditions of operation will be selected to achieve the objective product criteria set out herein.
- the specific equipment configuration will to some extent require trial and error to arrive at the optimum conditions in terms of achieving the properties of shear-related viscosity and granularity required.
- other heating methods such as drum drying, jet cooking, extrusion cooking and the like can be employed when, again, operated under conditions effective to achieve the objective product criteria set out herein.
- crosslinked starch refers to modified starches in which chemical bonds (bridges) in and between starch molecules have been formed by means of bifunctional or polyfunctional chemical reagents.
- Crosslinked starches are made by treating starch in the granular state with these reagents which are capable of reacting with the hydroxyl groups in and between the starch molecules or molecule chains within the granule.
- the amount of crosslinking reagent is generally small since only one crosslink is required for every 100 to 2000 starch units to achieve the desired functional effect.
- the degree of crosslinking controls the rate and extent of starch granule swelling during cooking. Functionally, crosslinking is employed to impart greater heat resistance, acid stability and shear tolerance to the starch.
- reagents such as phosphorus oxychloride, sodium trimetephosphate and adipic acid may be used as crosslinking agents.
- all crosslinking was carried out using phosphorus oxychloride (POC13) as per the conditions listed in Table 1.
- stabilized starch refers to are modified starches which have been protected against retrogradtion by using monofunctional reagents which chemically react with the hydroxyl groups on the starch molecules to introduce a substituent groups. These substituent groups interfere with or sterically hinder the intermolecular association between dissolved amylose molecules in starch pastes, slurries and solutions. Functionally, stabilization is employed to reduce gelatinization temperature, improve water uptake and retention and improve freeze/thaw stability. Examples of stabilized food starches are monostarch phosphates, acetylated starches and hydroxypropylated starches.
- the degree of substitution (DS) of these starches is between 0.01 and 0.2 (i.e., 1 to 20 substituent groups introduced per 100 starch units).
- all stabilization was carried out using propylene oxide as per the conditions in Table 1 to effect hyroxypropylation (HP).
- This product is then dried by passing the cooked slurry stream through a spray drying tower.
- modified potato starches are cooked to produce whole granular pregelatinized starches (cold water swelling starches) which behave contrary to the expected behavior of viscosity reduction with regards to processing stress such as shear.
- These starches substantially gain in viscosity following moderate (e.g., HobartTM mixer) to high shear (e.g., WaringTM blender, SilversonTM Rotostator Mixer, colloid mill) of the kinds usually employed in the food, cosmetics and personal care industries, to list a few.
- moderate e.g., HobartTM mixer
- high shear e.g., WaringTM blender, SilversonTM Rotostator Mixer, colloid mill
- Other modified crosslinked, pregelatinized non-cereal starches having similar properties (see Figure 1 and its description) would be suitable according to the invention.
- the invention provides for edible pregelatinized modified potato starches produced by atomized cooking which have been derivatized by standard methods by treatment with propylene oxide to produce a degree of substitution (DS) in the range of up to 0.22 and a preferred range of 0.8-0.16. Further it provides for pregelatinized starches which have been crosslinked by standard procedures with an amount of phosphorous oxychloride in the range of 75-1000ppm and a preferred range of 75-400ppm and/or substituted as per the above conditions. While the preferred starch is the Granular CWS high cross-linked potato starch in Table 1 as described above, other so crosslinked/modified non-cereal starches would also be suitable to the invention. The data in Example 1 and Table
- the pregelatinized starches of the invention are relatively stable in terms of freeze/thaw, refrigerated storage, heat and shear, yet can be easily further processed at low, workable viscosities. These starches build higher, desirable product viscosities upon application of significant mechanical action , e.g., shear by various mixers, Lightnin'TM Mixer, WaringTM blender, colloid mill, etc. Such characteristics are advantageous and desirable in a thickening or rheological ingredient for products of several industries including food processing, cosmetics, personal care, and others. Food applications where this thin-to-thick ("thin-thick") rheological profile would be useful include, but are not limited to, pourable salad dressings, spoonable mayonnaise and dressings and fruit preparations. Cosmetic and personal care applications include, but are not limited to, skin and body lotions, hair creams and preparations and cosmetic creams and lotions.
- Yet another preferred embodiment of this invention involves the use of pregelatinized starches modified and processed as noted above (the preferred starch) as a replacement for costly hydrocolloids such as xanthan gum for reasons of suspension, viscosity and clarity. They would find utility in food applications such as salad dressings (e.g., fat free Italian salad dressing) where small particles of spices and seasonings are required to become and remain suspended over time in a relatively clear liquid product. It is highly advantageous for the liquid fraction to remain at a low, workable viscosity until shearing with equipment such as a colloid mill after which it is required to develop and maintain sufficient viscosity to suspend the spice and seasoning over substantial time. As outlined in Example 4 and supported by data in Table 7, the findings in this regard of this invention are exemplified.
- Another preferred embodiment of this invention involves the use of these pregelatinized starches modified and processed as noted above (the preferred starch) as a viscofying hydrocolloid in cosmetic and personal care preparations.
- the starch acts to bind water, provide sufficient viscosity to suspend solids while imparting a smooth sensory feel to the preparations.
- the starches impart the clear advantage of allowing all necessary mixing, pumping and emulsion manipulation to occur at relatively low working viscosities prior to application of sufficient shear to induce their shear thickening properties and impart the final higher viscosity and stability to the cosmetic or personal care preparations.
- another benefit of the use of the preferred starch is its shear thickening and stable viscosity under acid conditions (pH ⁇ 4.0).
- Example 1 The following Example is provided to further illustrate and explain a preferred form of the invention and are not to be taken as limiting in any regard. Unless otherwise indicated, all parts and percentages are by weight. Example 1
- This example describes the rheological properties of the starches, such as the preferred starch, which is the subject of the preferred embodiment of this invention.
- This rheology can be described as "thin-thick" behavior and is characterized more precisely in Figure 1 and 2 in terms of the viscosity of the model food system of Example 1.
- the large magnitude viscosity increase with high shear is not seen for the same source modified potato starch when cooked by methods producing non-granular pregelatinized starch (eg., roll drum dried), for potato starches crosslinked at lesser levels or for similarly modified/crosslinked starches from cereal sources (e.g. , waxy maize, corn).
- Figures 1 and 2 and the data in Tables 2-4 exemplify and support these findings in a model food system.
- a Granular CWS high cross-linked potato starch as defined above in Table 1 is subjected to heating practicing the atomized cooking technology detailed in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,280,851, 4,600,472 and 4,847,371.
- This product is then dried by passing the cooked slurry stream through a spray drying tower.
- the product has substantially all of the starch granules intact and is cold water swelling.
- model food system was prepared and processed according to the following procedure.
- the slurry was then subjected to high shear using a Waring blender or Silverson Rotostator Mixer as noted.
- Fat free French salad dressings were prepared following the formulation and procedure listed below using the preferred starch, comparably modified waxy maize, and a comparably modified cornstarch.
- the shearing of the salad dressings was carried out on an APV model 2F colloid mill using a 3 pass procedure through a .005"gap. Brookfield viscosities were measured after the low-shear mixing step, after colloid mill shearing and again in 20 minutes as indicated in Table 5. It can be seen that there was a greater than 11- fold increase in viscosity observed with the preferred starch which was dramatically greater than the viscosities developed by the dressings with either of the cereal starches.
- Fruit preparations were made following the formulation and procedure listed below Using the preferred modified potato starch, and a comparably modified waxy maize starch. Heating to 200° F was carried out for 2 minutes followed by cooling to 100°F. The preparations were then blended using low shear overhead mixing followed by high shear milling with a Silverson mixer. They had pH values of 3.4. Brookfield viscosities were taken after the low shear mixing and again after the high shear treatment as shown in Table 6. The fruit preparation with the preferred starch had a viscosity after low shear mixing of 60cps vs. 200cps for comparably modified waxy maize.
- the fruit preparation with the preferred starch had a viscosity of 2100cps which is 35 times greater than after low shear mixing and 6-7 times that of the fruit preparation with the comparably modified waxy maize starch.
- the preferred starch clearly demonstrated its propensity for shear thickening in this application and its overwhelming functional superiority to the comparably modified waxy maize starch in this regard.
- Xanthan gum a relatively expensive hydrocolloid
- Xanthan gum is used widely in the preparation of salad dressings where particulate suspension, viscosity and clarity are required. It is especially useful in that it provides high viscosity even after shearing which is functionally desirable in salad dressings in which small particles of spice and seasonings need to be suspended over time in a clear liquid (e.g., fat free Italian dressing). At a typical 0.6% usage level, this allows for low working viscosities for processing ease while developing sufficient final product viscosity after shearing to allow for particulate suspension in the bottled dressing.
- a clear liquid e.g., fat free Italian dressing
- modified potato starch provides a clear slurry and the preferred starch, a cold water swelling highly crosslinked potato starch, also imparts high viscosity after shearing.
- the preferred starch seems to be a well-suited, cost-effective replacement for xanthan gum is such applications.
- the preferred starch was used at 2.7 % as the starch component and the dressing so prepared was compared to one similarly produced containing 0.6% xanthan gum. Both formulations were fluid with low, workable viscosities in the mixing stages. Brookfield viscosities, clarity and particulate suspension were compared one week after preparation and bottling. It can be seen from the data in Table 7 that the dressing made with the preferred starch had a one week viscosity of 2400cps, exhibited excellent clarity and was able to keep the spice and seasoning particles suspended with no settling noted. In these respects, it was equivalent to the dressing containing the xanthan gum. As such, the preferred starch has been shown to be an effective shear thickening, hydrocoUoid replacement for xanthan gum in such applications. The cost and use benefits of such a replacement would be apparent to those skilled in salad dressing formulation.
- Procedure 1 Add water to blender or batch tank.
- This example describes a practical application of the preferred embodiment of this invention in the field of cosmetics and personal care products.
- Cosmetic and personal care lotions and creams for the skin, body and hair often employ starches as viscosifying agents and hydrocolloids.
- the starch functions as a water binder and imparts viscosity sufficient to suspend solids while adding to the smooth feel of the preparations. It has been found that the preferred starch imparts all these functional benefits to cosmetic preparations while allowing all processing mixing, pumping and emulsion manipulation to occur with ease at low working viscosities due to its thin-thick rheological properties as demonstrated in Example 1.
- Example 1 With application of high shear just prior to completion of product manufacture the shear thickening properties are induced and the higher final product viscosities and stability desired are achieved in the cosmetic or personal care preparation. Moreover, as was demonstrated in Example 1 , another benefit of the use of the preferred starch is its shear thickening and stable viscosity under acidic conditions. This makes it especially well-suited for use in acidic cosmetic lotions(eg., skin lotions with alpha hydroxyacid).
- acidic cosmetic lotions eg., skin lotions with alpha hydroxyacid
- a skin lotion preparation containing alpha hydroxyacid was made.
- the preferred starch was used at the 2% level as part of Phase A of the lotion formulation.
- Phase A containing the starch was subjected to low shear with an overhead mixer and heated to 120°F to uniformly blend all ingredients.
- Phase B was formed by melting the waxy components at 140°F. It was added to Phase A while low speed homogenizing.
