ABSTRACT
The effect of modification of tigernut starch
using 1% Hcl and 1ml glucoamylase were evaluated. The result of the proximate
analysis shows that crude protein was not detected in the acid and enzyme
treated starches. But the native tigernut starch had crude protein content of
e' 1.92%. Similarly crude fat could not be detected in the modified starches
but the native tigernut starch had crude fat mean value of 0.57%. There were
significant differences in the ash and carbohydrate contents of the samples.
The ash content value means were in the range of 1.15 to 2.19% while the native
starch sample had the lowest carbohydrate content of 86.30%. The 1% He! treated
samples had the highest bulk density value of 0.72 g/ml while the native starch
had least bulk density mean value of 0.68g/ml. There is no significant
difference (p>0.05) oil absorption capacity, fo&ming capacity, solubiliy
in v ater also there is no significant difference on the least gelation
property of the starch samples while the gelatinization.
