Cross-linking can improve the stability of the starch against acidic
condition, high temperature and shear. Because of these advantages,
cross-linked starch has found its place in the food industry.
our knowledge, there is no published information showing the effects
of lactic acid (LA) and acetic acid (AA) on physicochemical
properties of these starches which was followed in this research.
The results may be useful to explain the behavior of native and
cross-linked wheat starches in the presence of AA and LA in different
foods.
