摘要

Porous starch is prevalently utilized for loading and transporting biologically active substances and constitutes an inexpensive sorbent with an extensive range of applications. In this study, an innovative and high-efficient preparation approach for chestnut porous starch was executed by integrating plasma-activated water with hydrolysis (α-amylase and glucosidase). Under the optimized conditions (jet power and time, enzyme dosage and hydrolysis time), the obtained chestnut porous starch showed to possess a uniformly porous structure under the electron microscope. Compared with normal enzymatic hydrolysis, the oil absorption rate of the starch was significantly enhanced and reached 141.28% ± 0.86%. The optimal condition for the adsorption of curcumin using PECS was for 350 min, when Qe was maximized and the adsorption process conformed to pseudo-first-order kinetics. This study provides a novel and effective alternative route for the development of chestnut porous starch material, which can fulfill the requirements of subsequent in-depth research.
