In order to know properties in rice starch during storage of rice, rice starch from stored rice(stored at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65% and $30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85%, for 16 weeks) used in this experiment. Water binding capacity of rice starch increased for 8 weeks, and then it decreased. As the storage period took longer, swelling power and solubility, optical transmittance, blue value, total amylose content and soluble amylose content decreased. For the same periods, changes in rice starch from stored rice$(30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85%) were made more than those in rice starch at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65%. The granule shape of rice starch, irrespective of storage periods and conditions, didn't make a significant difference. The relative crystallinity of the rice starch by X-ray diffraction didn't distinctly changed till the second week. But, at the fourth week, that by X-ray diffraction significantly decreased, and then slightly decreased. As the storage period took longer, gelatinization temperature, melting temperature and melting enthalpy measured by DSC got higher, but gelatinization enthalpy got lower. For the same storage period, gelatinization temperature, melting temperature, gelatinization enthalpy and melting enthalpy of rice starch stored at $30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85% made changes more than those of rice starch stored at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65% did.

Gelatinization properties of crude starches from acorns harvested in various countries (domestic (KAS), Chinese (CAS), and North Korea (NAS)) were analyzed, especially blue value, amylose contents, amylogram, particle size, and SEM (scanning electron microscope). Amylose contents of NAS, KAS, and CAS were 33.65%, 32.00%, and 30.48%, respectively, and a similar tendency was observed in blue value. According to amylogram, initial paste temperature was $72^{\circ}C$ for NAS and CAS and $71^{\circ}C$ for KAS, whereas peak viscosity was 580 BU for KAS and NAS and 570 BU for CAS. The cooling viscosity and setback of NAS and CAS were higher than those of KAS. The average particle size was 23.17 microns for KAS, 23.53 microns for CAS, and 82.14 microns for NAS; particle size ranging from 5~40 microns was highly distributed in KAS (68.9%) and CAS (73.8%), whereas 57.1% distribution was observed for 5~40 microns and 27.2% for >80 microns in NAS. Gelatinization ranges of SEM photography of CAS and NAS showed a more swollen, extremely disintegrated, and folded structure than that of KAS. From these results, gelatinization properties, especially viscosity, setback of amylogram, particle size, and SEM photography, differed according to the country.

The thermal properties of typical five Indica and five Japonica rice varieties were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). There was no significant difference in gelatinization temperature between Indica and Japonica varieties, but the average enthalpy of gelatinization was larger in Indica types than that in Japonica. However, the enthalpy of melting of amylose-lipid complex was larger in Japonica types than that in Indica types. The DSC thermogram of hydrolyzed rice residue included a smaller peak of gelatinization with narrow range of temperature. Retrogradation of gelatinized rice kernel was also determined with DSC theremograms. The endothermic peak areas clearly increased with increasing storage time at $4^{\circ}C$ so that the area could be used as a measure of the relative degree of retrogradation. The results indicated that Samgang variety(Indica) retrograded more rapidly than Chuncheong variety(Japonica).

Thermal properties of amylose-lysolecithin (AL) complex, amylose content and effect of lysolecithin on the gelatinization of rice starch were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The melting temperature of AL complex was near to $108.5^{\circ}C$ and the melting enthalpy was about 1.0cal/g. The gelatinization temperature of rice starch was not affected by adding lysolecithin. However, the enthalpy of gelatinization was decreased. The amylose contents in rice varieties were calculated from melting enthalpy of AL complex. The amylose contents for Indica and Japonica types of rice were in the range of 16-19%, which were in good agreement with those determined by iodine binding method. Significant differences were not observed in the amylose contents between Indica and Japonica varieties.

Arrowroot starches, harvested in March, June, September and December, indicated that the December starch had the lower values of amylose content, ${\beta}-amylolysis$ limit and intrinsic viscosity, but the highest value of water-binding capacity. The swelling power were similar among different starches. The gelatinization by KSCN revealed that the December starch was the most resistant to alkali gelatinization. Gelatinization temperature, determined by differential scanning calorimetry, of the December sample was shifted to higher temperture by $1^{\circ}C$ compared with the others. When the December starch was heated at $98^{\circ}C$ for 8min, 93.8% of total amylose and 7.2% of total amylopectin were solubilized, which was the highest and the lowest, respectively.

Gelatinization properties of heat-moisture treated Olchal(japonica) and Hankangchalbyeo(j x indica) waxy rice starches were compared. The blue value, light transmittance of starch suspension and viscosity in sodium hydroxide solution were similar between two starches. Olchal starch showed lower water binding capacity, swelling power md peak viscosity by amylograph than Hankangchalbyeo starch. Upon heat-moisture treatments all above parameters were decreased. The critical sodium hydroxide concentration for gelatinization was increased by treatments. The initial pasting temperature of Olchal starch was higher than that of Hankarlgchalbyeo. All amylograph reference points increased by the treatments, except the maximum viscosity or 2l% moisture-treated Olchal starch. Starches treated at 18% moisture level showd the highest value of consistency index. The activation energy of consistency index for gelatinized Olchal starch was lower than that for Hankangchalbyeo starch. The heat-moisture treatments had no effect on activation energy.

The effects of mugwort juice on the gel properties of corn starch (CS), mung bean starch (MS), and potato starch (PS) were investigated. Water holding capacities of three starches were increased with addition of the juice. Solubilities of CS and MS were also increased. Swelling power was increased in CS but decreased in MS. Viscoamylogram showed that 5% addition of the juice lowered the initial gelatinization temperatures of CS and MS, but raised the temperature of PS. While peak viscosities of CS and MS pastes were decreased a little, the viscosity of PS paste was decreased remarkably from 2,280 BU to 845 BU. Addition of mugwort juice did not affect significantly the hardness of starch gels during 7 days of storage at $25^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$. Degrees of gelatinization of the starch gels were affected by addition of the juice, especially in PS, during storage. Freeze-thaw stabilities of three gels were not changed by addition of the juice. The starch gels added with the mugwort juice had smooth surface visually because the crude fibrous materials of mugwort were removed during juice preparation.

Cowpea starch which is the main ingredient of Mook(Korean starch gel) was isolated from cowpea and characterized by physico-chemical methods. Gelatinization properties were investigated by using Brabender amylograph. Starch granules were oval-shape and their size range was $5\;-\;25{\mu}m$. Crystalline type observed by X-ray deffraction was C-type. Apparent amylose content was 20.7%, Amylose and amylopectin fractionated from cowpea starch appeared to have vlue value of 0.55 and 0.089, and ${\beta}-amylolysis$ limit of 79.1 and 71.9%, respectively. Brabender amylograph data showed that initial gelatinization temperature of cowpea starch was $75^{\circ}C$. Also, hot and cooled paste viscosity of 8% starch paste were higher than that of 6% paste by more than twice, breakcown value of two different concentration were almost same. However, in the gelation stage, consistancy and setback of 8% starch paste appeared more than 5 times of those of 6% paste.

Gelatinization behaviours and gel properties of hydroxypropylated corn starches (HPCS) were investigated with differential scanning calorimeter, amylograph and rheometer. Gelatinization temperature of HPCS decreased as degree of substitution increased. The retrogradation of corn starch was greatly reduced by hydroxypropylation, indicating that the association of starch molecules was sterically hindered by hydroxypropyl groups. In HPCS, gel was formed slowly and gel strength decreased resulting in soft and sticky texture. Texture profiles of HPCS gels were similar to those of tapioca and waxy corn starch. HPCS has shown a remarkable increase of paste transparency compared to native corn starch.

Gelatinization properties and the molecular structure of Korean waxy rice starchesisolated from two japonica types, Sinseonchal, and Dongjinchal, as well as an indica type, Hangangchal 1 were investigated. Sinseonchal is preferred cultivar for making Korean traditional rice cakes and cookies. Sinseonchal starch was the highest in crude protein, amylopectin, damaged starch contents, and water binding capacity among the cultivars tested. The initial pasting temperature ($72.75^{\circ}C$), peak (360.54 RVU), breakdown (162.21 RVU) and setback (30.83 RVU) viscosities of Sinseonchal had the highest values (p<0.05). Onset and peak temperatures by differential scanning calorimeter were also the highest in Sinseonchal. The molecular weight of Sinseonchal amylopectin was 5.46 107higher than those of the other cultivars, but its peak height and area were the lowest among them. The amylopectin peak by HPSEC showed a shoulder in the lower molecular weight portion and its relative area decreased in the following order; Sinseonchal > Dongjinchal > Hangangchal 1. On the branch chain length distribution of amylopectin, the proportion of DP13-24 and DP25-36 showed reverse trends, with higher japonica type amylopectin in DP13-24.
