21 correlated with raw starch digestibility. Amylopectin predominantly contributed to crystallinity

22 of starches both in short range and long range orders (observed by FT-IR and X-ray diffraction

23 respectively). This study found that cooking destructively changed the molecular structure of

24 starch that lead to increase in rate of starch digestion. Cooking in excess water resulted in a

25 higher rate of starch digestion at least by 2 fold in all examined starches, suggesting that in this

26 cooking condition factors that would normally limit the rate of digestion were eliminated.

27 Cooking in limited water that was similar to domestic cooking conditions, seemed to allow rice

28 starch granules to rearrange and interact together and limited the rate of digestion compared to

29 cooking in excess water. It can be concluded that physicochemical properties of starch can

30 predict the digestibility of raw starches only but not cooked starches. The digestion of rice starch

31 cooked in limited water cannot be predicted by just studying the uncooked starches or cooking in

32 excess water.

37 1 Introduction

38 Rice (Oryza sativa, L.) is one of the main staple foods for a majority of the Asian population and

39 is eaten as whole cooked grain, mostly by steaming or sometimes followed by stir-frying.

40 Studies have shown that the degree of starch digestion varies between starchy foods, suggesting

41 the choice of foods with lower glucose response so as to prevent type 2 diabetes, obesity and

Food & Function Accepted Manuscript


42 metabolic syndrome 1. Under this vision, the rate at which the glucose is released from rice

43 starch digestion has been extensively investigated. It is generally assumed that physicochemical

44 properties of starch such as amylose content, gelatinisation and pasting properties, degree of

45 crystallisation, swelling power and granular surface short range order structure, amylopectin fine

46 structure, etc. strongly correlated with rice starch digestion in form of cooked 2-6 or uncooked

47 rice 7, 8. Implications based on relationships between physicochemical properties and digestion of

48 rice starch seem to be oversimplified and maintained unclear, may somehow mislead customer’s

49 choice of rice varieties having low starch digestibility. In addition, majority of studies were very

50 limited in which only few varieties have been studied with different amylose contents, and thus

51 drawn conclusions seem to be generalised for other varieties. The extent of starch digestibility

52 has been reported to be dependent on cooking methods 9-11. Most of the studies have addressed

53 rice starch digestibility of rice cooked in excessive water, however, practically, rice is mostly

54 cooked in limited water, especially in a rice cooker. Also, the existing literature has raised

55 doubts about whether uncooked starch digestion can predict cooked starch digestion, particularly

56 in limited water conditions. In this paper, a comprehensive study on physicochemical properties

57 of eleven rice starches isolated from eleven rice varieties with a wide range of amylose contents

58 and their starch digestibilities in the forms of uncooked, cooked in excess water and in limited

59 water was performed to clarify their relationship.

60 2 Materials and methods

61 2.1 Materials

62 Enzymes and chemicals were obtained from the following sources: pepsin (Sigma P-6887, from

63 gastric porcine mucosa), pancreatin (Sigma P-1625 from porcine pancreas) and

64 amyloglucosidase (Novozyme, 300L AMG). Rice varieties e.g., Jasmine, VD20, OM6976,

Food & Function Accepted Manuscript


65 IR50404 and OM4218 were supplied by An Giang Plant Protection Company (An Giang,

66 Vietnam), other rice varieties (provide details here) were collected from Nam Dinh province,

67 Vietnam.

68 2.2 Starch isolation

69 Rice starch was isolated from rice grains using the alkaline steeping according to the method of

70 Wang and Wang12 with some modifications. Rice grains (100g) were soaked in 200 ml of 0.1%

71 NaOH for 18 hours, blended using Thermomix (Thermomix, Australia) for 2 minutes at high

72 speed. The starch slurry was passed through a micro-sieve 63µm and centrifuged at 1400g for 10

73 min. The supernatant was removed. The starch layer was washed with deionized water and

74 centrifuged. Then the starch was re-slurried and neutralized with 1.0M HCl to pH 6.5 and

75 centrifuged. Starch was washed with deionised water at least 3 times before drying at 45oC for

76 48h, passed through 200µm sieve and stored at room temperature. The isolated starches were

77 tested for apparent amylose content following the AACC 61-03 method13. The isolated starches

78 were tested for physicochemical properties and in vitro digestion.

79 2.3 Swelling power (SP) and pasting properties of rice starches (RVA)

80 Swelling power of starch was determined based on the method developed by Tsai, Li and Lii 14.

81 The SP was calculated using the formula: SP = Ws/ [0.1(100% - WSI)] (g/g), where WSI is the

82 water soluble index (WSI = [W1/0.1] x 100%), W1 is the soluble starch fraction and Ws is the

83 sediment.

84 Pasting properties of rice starches were determined by using the Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA

85 Series 1, Newport Scientific, Warriewood, Australia) following the AACC 61-0213. The RVA

87 Scientific, Warriewood, Australia).

88 2.4 Rice starch thermal properties (DSC)

89 Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) Q20 Series (TA Instrument, New Castle, DE) was used

91 in the ratio 1:2.3 and hermetically sealed in an aluminum pan. The pan was equilibrated at room

92 temperature at least 2 hours before running the DSC. Samples were heated from 30 to 100oC at

93 the rate of 10oC/min. The temperature and transitions were recorded and calculated by TA

94 Universal Analysis Software version 4.5.

96 2.5 X-ray diffraction (XRD) and relative crystallinity of rice starches

97 PANalytical Xpert Multipurpose X-ray Diffraction System (MP XRD, X′ Pert Pro, PANalytical,

98 Netherlands) was used to observe the crystalline pattern of starch samples. Starches (12%

99 moisture content) were measured in triplicate with target voltage around 40kV, target current of

100 45 mA. The instrument was equipped with a copper X-ray generator (λ = 1.54 Å), programmable

101 incident beam divergence slit and diffracted beam scatter slit, and an X’celerator high speed

102 detector. X-ray diffractograms were acquired at room temperature over the 2θ range of 6–50°

103 with a step size 2θ of 2.0°/min. The relative crystallinity of the starches was quantitatively

104 calculated using peak-fitting technique15 by using MagicPlot 4.0 software (MagicPlot, MagicPlot

105 Systems, LLC, St. Petersburg, Russia).

106 2.6 Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy

107 FT-IR of rice starches (12% moisture content) were performed by using a Bruker IFS66/S

108 Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer equipped with a tungsten halogen lamp, a KBr beam

109 splitter, ATR single crystal and a DTGS detector. The spectra in the region of 1200-800 cm-1

110 were recorded from the co-added interferograms of 32 scans with resolution of 4 cm-1. The IR

111 absorbance values at 1047 and 1022 cm-1 were extracted from the deconvoluted spectra and their

112 ratios were calculated.

113 2.7 In vitro digestibility of rice starch

114 The protocol of in vitro digestion described by Muir and O’Dea16 was used with some

115 modifications. For uncooked rice starches, 100mg of starch (in dried weight) was transferred into

Food & Function Accepted Manuscript


116 120mL plastic container (Sarstedt, Australia), 1 magnetic bar and 10mL of HCl 0.02M were

117 added. The gastric phase was mimicked by adding 5mL of pepsin solution in HCl 0.02M

118 (1mg/mL). The containers were placed in a sample holder of the Glycemic Analyzer (GI20, Next

119 Instrument, Australia) for 30 min operating at 37oC with stirring speed of 200 rpm. After 30 min,

120 the solution was neutralized by 15mL of 0.02M NaOH and 25mL of acetate buffer (0.2M, pH 6)

121 was added to each container. The containers were equilibrated at 37oC for 5 min before adding

122 5mL of enzyme mixture (2mg/mL of pancreatin; 28U/mL amyloglucosidase). The containers

123 were incubated for 5 hours and the hydrolysates were taken with different time intervals.

124 Glucose released was measured using the glucose analyser (GL6, Analox, India). For the cooked

125 rice starch in excess water, the procedure for cooking was according to Reed, Ai, Leutcher and

126 Jane10 with modifications. 100mg of rice starch (dried weight) was transferred into a 120mL

127 plastic container and cooked with 5mL of deionized water in boiling water bath (Ratek

128 8WB20D, Edwards Group Pty Ltd. Narellan NSW 2567, Australia) for 10 min. The temperature

129 of cooked starch was brought to 37oC and immediately adjusted to a total volume of 10mL with

130 0.02M HCl and the digestion was done following the aforementioned procedure. Rice starches

131 were also cooked by simulating the conditions of cooking for normal consumption which was

132 modified from 17 procedure. 3 grams of rice starch was weighed into a 15mL glass container with

133 screw cap and water was added in the ratio of 2:3 and 1:1 for non-waxy and waxy rice starches,

134 respectively. All glass containers were placed in a rice cooker (Kambrook Electric, NSW,

135 Australia) containing 200 grams of white rice and 300 grams of water. Rice starch was cooked in

136 an electric rice cooker with a fixed pre-determined time. 100mg of freshly cooked starch (dried

143 Emitech K550X Sputter Coating Systems (Emitech, England) under vacuum and argon

144 environment (5 min at 125mA), yielding around 50 nm coating thickness. Coated samples were

145 imaged in a scanning electron microscope (SEM), Hitachi S-3400 (Tokyo, Japan) at an

146 accelerating voltage of 15-20 kV and a working distance of 10 mm.

148 2.9 Data fitting and statistical analysis

149 The first-order model (Eq.(1)) developed by Goñi, Garcia-Alonso and Saura-Calixto18 was used

150 to investigate the kinetics of rice starch digestion that mimics the small intestinal conditions.

151 C = C∞ (1- e-Kt) (1)

152 Where C = starch digested (expressed as % db) at incubation time t (min), C∞ = equilibrium

153 starch digested (express as % db), K = digestion rate coefficient (min-1). K values were obtained

154 by a nonlinear-least-squares fit of the Eq. (1) using GraphPad Prism 6.0 (GraphPad Software,

155 Inc.)

156 The data are reported as means with standard deviations of triplicate measurements. Analysis of

157 variance (ANOVA) with Duncan’s multiple tests and Pearson correlation were determined by

160 3 Results and discussion

164 Vietnamese rice starches in this study ranged from 0.2 to 28.4 % (Table 1). According to

Food & Function Accepted Manuscript


165 Mackill, Coffman, and Garrity 19, based on amylose content, these varieties can be classified

166 into: waxy (0-2% amylose in white glutinous and Cai Hoa Vang), low amylose (8-20% in Bac

167 Thom, Jasmine and VD20), intermediate amylose (21-25% including Tam Xoan, OM4218) and

168 high amylose (>25% including OM6976, IR50404, Luong Quang and Q5). The range of amylose

169 content in this study is quite different from that reported earlier20 (1.9-39.7%). Variation in

170 reported amylose values is most likely due to the difference in analytical method used. Various

171 factors affecting the amylose content have been extensively reviewed21. For example, amylose

172 contents of Cai Hoa Vang, Tam Xoan and Q5 were reported as 2.8, 26.8 and 36.2% respectively

173 in another study20 using the Rice analyzer, which were higher than that measured in the present

174 study.

195 The supra-molecular structures of rice starches were characterized using the X-ray diffraction technique.

196 The selective diffractograms of rice starches and degree of crystallinity are displayed in Fig 1.

197 Vietnamese rice starches showed a typical A-type diffraction pattern with crystalline peaks at 15o, 17o,

198 18o, 20o and 23o (Fig. 1). The XRD patterns were quite similar between starches though differences in

199 peak intensities were recorded. Differences in intensity reflect the variation in degree of crystallinities

200 among tested starches. The degree of crystallinity ranged from 45.9% to 71.1%. The amylopectin

201 contents of starches were proportional to the degree of crystallinity. White glutinous rice had the highest

202 and Q5 starch had the lowest crystallinity. The crystalline structure of starch granules is formed by the

203 packing of double helices of amylopectin (long range ordered structure) 24. Higher amount of

204 amylopectin is expected to have higher crystallinity as observed. The relative crystallinities found in this

205 study is much higher than that previously reported values7. An alternative fitting method15 was used in

206 which crystalline peaks were deconvoluted and the relative crystallinity was calculated based on each

216 ratios (B). The bar graph shows the trend of decreasing amylose content from left to right

217 The infrared spectroscopy was used to explore the short range molecular order structure near the granule

218 surface of rice starches. The FT-IR spectra of rice starches, from 800-1200cm-1 (Fig. 2A) appeared to be

219 similar. Van Soest, Tournois, de Wit, and Vliegenthart 25 reported that FT-IR bands at 1047 cm-1 and

220 1022cm-1 denote ordered and amorphous regions, respectively. The ratio of the intensity of these bands

221 (1047/1022) was used as a convenient index to exemplify the degree of short range order of the starches

222 (crystalline of double helices). 1047/1022 ratios of rice starches are presented in Fig.2B. Waxy rice

223 starches had the highest 1047/1022 ratios among tested rice starches that were in agreement with a

224 previous study 7. It is quite clear that amylopectin predominantly denotes amount of double-helix in

225 waxy rice starches. Q5 and Luong Quang starches (highest in amylose contents) were characterized with

226 very low 1047/1022 ratios (0.69 and 0.67, respectively). However, in high amylose starches (>20%),

227 FT-IR ratios were not necessarily low. For example, OM4128 was relatively high in 1047/1022 ratios

228 (0.72) although its amylose content was 23.8%, indicating the contribution of amylose in forming

229 double helices of this starch.

262 gelatinization enthalpies. In addition, large gelatinization temperature range of these starches may have

263 also amplified gelatinization enthalpies since transition temperature range is proportional to enthalpy.

264 On the other hand, amylose is associated with increase in heat capacity of starch 27 and may somehow

265 increase gelatinization enthalpies. However, this trend was not observed in Luong Quang and Q5

266 starches (amylose >26%, Table 1) which had significantly lower gelatinization enthalpies. It is possible

267 low gelatinization enthalpies in these starches could be because of their low short range order

269 order 28. The significantly (p<0.05) low 1047/1022 ratios found in Luong Quang and Q5 starches may

270 lower their gelatinization enthalpies.

276 In vitro digestion of starches in uncooked, cooked in excess water and limited water were conducted.

277 Digestion rate and extent for uncooked rice starches are presented in Table 2. Digestion behaviors of

278 starches precisely followed first-order and fit the non-linear equation Eq.1. (R2> 0.95, the data not show

281 in which most of their starches were hydrolyzed within the first 180min. As visualized by SEM

282 imaging, Cai Hoa Vang starches (Fig.4A) were damaged by amyloytic enzyme after 1 hour and very

283 small fragmented residues were observed after 3 hours. In contrast, IR50404, OM6976, OM4218 and

290 of enzymatic attack compared to other starches.

291 The relationship between the digestion rate coefficient of raw starch and physicochemical parameters

292 have been analyzed and presented in Table S2. The digestion rate coefficient negatively correlated with

293 amylose content of tested starches. However, starches containing the highest amylose content do not

294 necessarily have the lowest digestion rate coefficients. For example, Q5 and Luong Quang had the

295 highest amylose contents (28.4 and 27.5% respectively) but were characterized with intermediate rate

296 coefficients. In fact, the presence of supra-molecular arrangement of amylose in starch granules are most

297 likely governing the physicochemical properties of starches and would indirectly be associated with

298 amylolytic susceptibility. Firstly, amylose content contributed to forming compact and stable native

299 starch granules resisting amylase hydrolysis. The structure stability was clearly reflected in the

300 resistance to swelling and gelatinization (especially low in SP, high in pasting temperature, onset of

301 gelatinization and peak gelatinization temperatures) as seen in IR50404, OM6976, OM4218 and Tam

302 Xoan starches. Thus, the correlations between digestion rate coefficients of uncooked rice starches and

303 physicochemical parameters were established as indicated in Table S2. On the other hand, the amylase

304 susceptibility of native starches is reported to be affected by organization of the starch granular surface
29
305 . It is generally accepted that a higher FT-IR ratio of starch (1047/1022cm-1) should result in greater

306 resistance to starch digestion25, 29. However, this relationship was not observed in this study. According

307 to Jenkins and Donald30, the presence of amylose may form a co-crystalline network between amylose

308 and amylopectin. It is possible that only ordered structures derived from amylopectin and reinforced by

309 amylose can make the starch granular surface more stable and less porous; resulting in less starch

310 hydrolysis. For example, OM4218 had the highest 1044/1022 cm-1 ratio (0.72) among the non-waxy rice

311 starches and was more resistant to amylase hydrolysis. The lack of surface cavities caused by enzyme

312 attack as found in Fig.4C strengthens this hypothesis.

313 3.7.2 In vitro digestion of cooked starch in excess water

314 In this experiment, the rice starches were cooked in excess water and their starch digestibilities were

315 investigated. Table 2 showed that cooking in excess water significantly increased the digestibility of all

316 rice starches. The non-linear first order fit of digested starch by time (Fig.S1B) and the extent of

317 digestion and rate coefficients is present in Table 2. The digestibilities of cooked rice starches were

318 much higher compared to that of raw starches in which the extent of digestion in the first 30min

319 increased 2-7-fold and the rate coefficient increased up to 8 fold. Only minor, although statistically

320 significant (p<0.05), differences were found in the rate and extent of starch digestion between samples

321 cooked in excess water (Table 2). The results indicate that the molecular arrangement of starch acted as

322 a rate limiting step and was possibly disrupted by cooking making starches more susceptible to

323 amylolysis. The relationship between physicochemical properties and rate coefficients were further

324 analyzed for cooked starches in excess water and shown in Table S2. Although very similar

325 relationships were found, the correlation and degree of significance decreased, in comparison to raw

326 starches. Our results indicate that physicochemical parameters more closely correlate to native starch

327 digestion rather than cooked starch. However, caution in interpreting correlations between

328 physicochemical parameters and cooked starch digestibility should be taken. For example, IR50404

329 starch was high in amylose (27%) but its starch digestibility was also very high when being cooked in

330 excess water.

331 3.7.3 In vitro digestion of cooked starches in limited water

332 Considering that rice is always eaten in cooked form mostly using the absorption method with limited

333 water to rice ratio. In the current study, rice starches were cooked in a way that mimicked domestic

334 cooking using an electrical rice cooker. The behavior of digestion was studied and is presented in Table

335 2 and Fig.S1C. Generally, starch digestibility was highly variable between samples and the rate of

336 digestion significantly decreased (p<0.01), compared to that of starch cooked in excess water. The

337 cooking conditions probably allowed starch granules to swell and interact with adjacent granules. When

338 heating high starch concentration solutions (20% w/w starch to water), the gel network may be formed

339 (mainly by amylose) and reinforced by interaction between swollen starch granules 31. This sort of gel

340 did not exist when starch was cooked in excess water since the concentration of starch was too low. The

341 rearrangement of amylose and amylopectin at molecular and granular levels could significantly

342 influence the amylolytic susceptibility of the cooked rice starches. At the molecular level, both amylose

343 and amylopectin may form a gel structure between high molecular weight polymer molecules following

344 further increase in crystallinity in the polymer rich regions. The formation of such gels, in turn, act as a

345 barrier for dispersion of starch granules and restrict the rate of starch digestion 17. The digestibility of

346 cooked rice starch in limited water was found to be independent of physicochemical properties (Table

347 S.2). The retrogradation of the starch gel was strongly influenced by physicochemical properties of

348 starch32, 33 and was thought to have a good correlation with digestibility of starch. However, the starch in

349 this study was freshly cooked and digested, which minimized retrogradation as a consequence. Factors

350 other than amylose such as interactions between the leached components of starch and amylopectin fine

351 structure (not included here) influence the digestibility of cooked starch in limited water. The correlation

352 between digestion rate coefficient of starch in the raw, cooked in excess water and cooked in limited

353 water conditions were investigated (Fig.S2). Though, statistically significant (p<0.05), very weak

354 correlations were found, indicating that digestibility of raw starch will not predict digestibility of cooked

355 rice starches. In addition, rice starch cooked in excess water behaved differently when in contact with

356 amylolytic enzymes compared to starch being cooked in limited water. Thus, digestibility of cooked

357 starch in excess water should not be used to assume the digestibility of cooked starch in limited water,

358 especially in the case of rice cooked in a rice cooker with limited water to rice ratio.

373 Starches with a wide range of amylose contents vary in swelling power, pasting and thermal

374 properties and supra-molecular structure. Amylose in rice starch seemed to be a factor limiting

377 excess water. The cooking in excess water increased the rate of digestion up to 8 folds compared

378 to raw starch. The structural rearrangement of starches when being cooked in limited water may

379 act as a barrier for enzymatic digestion resulting in lower rate coefficients compared to those of

380 starches cooked in excess water. Amylose content, physicochemical properties and molecular

381 order of starch suitably explain the raw starch but not cooked starch digestibility. The

382 digestibility of raw rice starch and rice starch cooked in excess water are not appropriate for

383 predicting digestibility of cooked starches in limited water. Caution should be taken when

384 choosing rice varieties for preventing and managing type 2 diabetes based on digestibilities of

385 raw starch and cooked in excess water. Cooking conditions should be very carefully chosen to

386 predict the digestibility of cooked rice grains as they should reflect the domestic cooking

387 conditions.
