why does chocolate milk have carrageenan?
it binds with proteins in milk to make a complex structure–>makes a gel so that the chocolate doesn’t just settle at the bottom
jam contains ___

cellulose (beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage)
what causes bread to become stale?
the firmness increases because of the re-association between amylose molecules and amylopectin molecules
what is retrogradation?
when a gelatinized starch solution is cooled so that the polymer chains begin to reassociate in an ordered structure
which starch undergoes retrogradation faster: amylose or amylopectin?
Amylose

raffinose (in beans, digested by gas producing bacteria)
How is HFCS made?
isomerase convert gluc to fruc

what are the steps of enzymatic transformation of corn starch into HFCS?
corn starch–>alpha amylase–>corn syrup with maltose–>glucoamylase–>glucose solution–>glucose isomerase–>fructose/glucose
why are HFCS associated with health issues?
• fruc absorbed in GI diff mech than gluc, ^ conversion to fat • doesn’t stim insulin secretion (key regulator food intake/body wght) • future risk cardio disease
what are reducing sugars?
contain aldehyde/ketone (gal, gluc, fruc, lact) NOT sucrose
what is Maillard browning?
rxn tween reducing carbs, C=O and -NH2 groups • influence flavour and colour • polymerization of al/ketone create brown melanoids
