Abstract:
Conventional starches from potato and maize are widely used in pharmaceuticals for their favorable physicochemical properties and accessibility. However, increasing demand for these starches in the food and biofuel industries has necessitated the exploration of alternative starch sources with comparable or superior excipient properties. This study looked at the potential for the use of Ginger and Tiger Nut Starches for Pharmaceutical formulations. Starch was extracted from fresh ginger root and tiger nut using the wet milling and sedimentation method, followed by drying and pulverization. The

Abstract:
Food waste is a major issue that is increasingly affecting our environment. More than one-third of food is wasted, resulting in over $400 billion in losses to the U.S. economy. While composting and other small recycling practices are encouraged from person-to-person, it is not enough to balance the net loss of 80 million tons per year. Currently, one of the most promising routes for reducing food waste is through microbial fermentation, which can convert the waste into valuable bioproducts. Among the compounds produced from fermentation, 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) has gained interest recently du

Abstract:
High optical purity lactic acid is in high demand as the precursor for synthesizing polylactic acid (PLA). The costs of expensive carbohydrates and nitrogen source materials accounts for a large portion of the production costs in lactic homo-fermentation. The use of lignocellulosic biomass for lactic acid production reduces the cost of the carbohydrate feedstock, but the cost of nitrogen sources is a big challenge when considering the high prices of general nitrogen sources. Low-cost nitrogen materials are vulnerable to being contaminated by exogenous mixed L-lactic acid and D-lactic acid; thu

Abstract The tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus L.) is an ideal raw material for oil extraction, but the starch-rich tiger nut meal, a by-product of oil extraction, has not been fully utilized. For this, starch was isolated from the tiger nut meal, then starch nanoparticles were prepared by gelatinization, ultrasonication and nanoprecipitation under different conditions. The preparation parameters were optimized by measuring the particle size with dynamic light scattering, and the physicochemical properties of native starch and nano starch were evaluated. The result showed that, compared to native

AbstractTiger nut horchata solid residue (HSR) has high starch content (about 23%, dry basis) that can be recovered to valorise this waste, together with other valuable components, such as oil, fibres, or phenolic compounds. In this study, a chemical-free, sustainable process was proposed to obtain starch with good yield and purity. This consists of a high-speed homogenisation step with distilled water, followed by filtration and phase separation by density in the slurry to obtain a starch-rich sediment that can be isolated by decantation.

AbstractBACKGROUNDThe delayed drying of newly harvested tiger nuts can lead to mold and rancidity. Timely drying is therefore important. However, few studies have analyzed the impact of hot‐air drying on the quality of tiger‐nut oil and starch, making it essential to establish optimal drying conditions.RESULTSThe results showed that the drying temperature was the most important factor affecting the drying speed, followed by drying airflow rate and loading capacity. A logarithmic model can describe the hot‐air drying process of tiger nuts. The oil yield of tiger nut was highest after drying at
