Abstract

Near infrared (NIR) reflectance spectra of wheat flour, dried extrudates and bread crumb over the range 1350–1650 nm exhibit similar features which provide information about the changes in starch structure which take place during their processing or aging. It is postulated that the observed spectral features are related to changes in the states of hydrogen bonding of O–H bonds in starch and water.
