Starch of mango seeds: Obtaining, properties and applications

Abstract

This study aims to carry out a literature review on the important use of mango residues in the food industry as a new source of starch, the extraction of mango starch from the seeds of the residues, highlighting the properties, the rheology and its different applications in industry. A bibliographic search was carried out in the SciELO, GOOGLE Scholar, PubMed, LILACS, CAPES Journal Portal databases, with the keywords: starch preparation from mango seeds, starch properties, application of mango waste in food and rheology. The articles used in this work were scientific articles in full, available and with free electronic access; national and international articles were also used, delimiting a period of time from 2014 to 2019. It is concluded that several studies have shown that starch used as a renewable source can significantly influence various technological processes in the food industry, both and, mainly in the vital metabolism of human food, as in the texture of products. Thus, the various points commented in this review demonstrate that starch is considered more than an energy component and can be extensively studied in its chemical characterizations and also in its technological and nutritional use.
