Abstract:

The properties of buckwheat starch prepared in our lab by wet-milling method were investigated and were compared with those of corn starch, potato starch and tapioca starch. The results indicated that there were some differences in solubility, expansibility, anti-enzymolysis, transparency, freezing and thawing stability, gelatin, thermodynamic property and viscosity property. The buckwheat starch, as a new starch resource, has some utilization values and expansive development prospects.

Key words: buckwheat starch, properties, viscosity
