FFAs and other lipids (e.g. monoacyl (MAG) and diacyl glycerols
(DAG), the products of TAG hydrolysis) can form inclusion complexes
with amylose. As such complexes can impact viscosity of
wheat wholemeal pastes , changes in lipid
composition as a result of flour rather than wholemeal storage may
also alter flour pasting characteristics. In general, higher final viscosities
and setback readings are noted in RVA for starches mixed
with fatty acids (FAs) and MAG than for granular (defatted)
starches, while for peak viscosity both increases and decreases have
been described
