The article presents the results of studies on the model systems of extrudates  conducted with a view to determining the function of moisture during the process of forming the structure of starch pastes. There was studied the influence of the moisture content of raw materials on a starch gelatinization point. Studies showed that 15% moisture content in raw materials is sufficient for its constituent phase – starch gelatinization, as well as for the transition of the whole mass to a fluid-viscous state. Further increase in the moisture content is accompanied by a decrease in a gelatinization point. In order to study the influence of moisture on the formation of a porous structure of extrudates, we studied the relationship between the different-type starch pastes and the degree of its transparency and its embrittlement temperature. It has been found that during the process of thermal and mechanical impacts, there occurs the process of the formation of a structure of starch pastes, in particular, samples with the different moisture contents can have an amorphous or crystalline structure. There has been established the relationship between the moisture content of raw materials on the modulus of elasticity of starch pastes based on them. The modulus of elasticity of samples was determined one hour (cooling time to room temperature) and one week after obtaining the starch paste. The above studies showed that minimal physico-chemical and mechanical transformations occur in starch pastes, which are in an amorphous state, that is, in the conditions of a low moisture content. We have established that the moisture content of raw materials, on the one hand, ensures the transition of a high-dispersive phase to a fluid state, or implementing the ex process of extrusion, and on the other hand, influences on the formation of a porous structure in the extrudates.

This paper describes an approach for studying collections of near-infrared spectra by using multivariate analyses. The method is illustrated with the use of two sets of spectra of gelatinized starch, recorded in the transmission mode between 650 and 1235 nm. The first set consisted of 99 spectra of partly gelatinized samples (from 24.5 to 100% gelatinization). Application of principal component analysis (PCA) made it possible to identify an outlying sample and to identify the importance of spectral variations due to the effect of scattering. Hence, it was possible to eliminate the scatter variations. From principal component regression (PCR), it was shown that the relationship between corrected spectra and gelatinization was not linear. Discriminant analysis was applied to seven classes of starch gelatinization. Only five samples out of 98 were incorrectly identified. The second set of samples was designed for studying the effect of temperature variation on the spectra of fully gelatinized starch samples. It was possible to show from PCR that the relationship between the spectra and temperature was linear. The “spectral patterns” assessed from discriminant analysis of starch gelatinization and from the PCR of temperature were compared.
