ORIGINAL PAPER
Abstract
The huaya seed, considered as fruit waste, represents 40% of the total weight of this tropical fruit that is highly consumed
in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Starch isolated from the fruit seed flour has becoming an alternative to the use of
non-conventional sources starches. The present study aims to isolate starch from huaya seed flour and characterize it by
its physicochemical, structural, thermal and functional properties. The starch yield was 39.38% containing low levels of
protein, lipids, ash and fiber. Starch was characterized by exhibiting an average size of 14.54 µm presenting an oval shape
without cracks, high amylose content and high content of resistant starch (RS). Additional analysis shown that starch pos-
sesses a more ordered microstructure (C-type starch and ratio 1047/1022 cm−1 and 1022/995 cm−1), high decomposition
and gelatinization temperatures, and perhaps these results explain the low swelling capacity of the granule and its low rate
of enzymatic hydrolysis. According to the results, this starch owns the potential to be used in non-transparent foods that
require high temperatures (such as baking), for the design of products with a lower glycemic index and lower caloric value,
and additionally, for the manufacture of bioplastic films for applications as wrappings in food industry.
