Oxidized acetate starch was synthesized from corn oxidized starch and vinyl acetate. The sizing concentration and degree of substitution of modified starch on surface strength, smoothness and water resistance of the paper have been studied. The results showed that the surface strength, smoothness and other properties of paper sized by oxidized acetate starch is better than that of oxidized starch. When the degree of substitution of modified starch is from 0.04 to 0.14, the properties of paper sized by oxidized acetate starch have been improved more effectively.

Oxidized potato starch/polyethylene (PE) cast films were prepared with different percentages of linear low density PE (LLDPE), oxidized potato starch and prooxidant. For the determination of biodegradability of the films, lignocellulose-degrading Streptomyces viridosporus T7A (ATCC 39115) was used. Films were chemically disinfected and incubated with S. viridosporus by shaking at 100 rpm at 37$^{\circ}C$ for eight weeks. Hydroxyl indices of the films by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, mechanical Properties of the films by Instron and film morphology by scanning electron microscope (SEM) were measured. The hydroxyl index of the film containing the oxidized potato starch incubated with S. viridosporus T7A was higher than that of the corresponding control. All the films containing 5% and 10% oxidized starch showed a decrease of tensile strength on the films after incubation when the corresponding uninoculated film was compared. In the oxidized starch/PE film incubated with S. viridosporus T7A, partial destruction of starch and PE was examined by SEM.

Physicochemical properties of waxy maize starch and oxidized waxy maize starch with sodium hypochlorite $(0{\sim}60\;mg\;CL_2/g\;starch,40^{\circ}C,\;pH\;10,\;3.0\;hr)$ were studied. As sodium hypochlorite concentration was increased, the content of crude lipid and crude protein of the oxidized starch were decreased. And crude protein content and whiteness was considered to show negative regression. However, the crude ash content of the oxidized starch increased significantly with oxidation and bore a positive regression to the chlorine content. There was a progressive increase in the carboxyl content with increasing oxidant level. After pasting in hot water and cooling, viscosity of the oxidized starches were drastically lower than that of native starch . As carboxyl contents of the oxidized starch increased, the solubility and swelling power was increased. When waxy maize starch treated with 0, 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0% sodium hypochlorite, temperature of initial gelatinization of oxidized starch was shown to 65, 65, 60 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The oxidized waxy maize starches also form clearer pastes. Water binding capacity of the oxidized starch decreased as the degree of carboxyl group substitution increased. Waxy maize starch has polygonal and some round granules which range from about 3.7 to $20\;{\mu}m$ in diameter. Surface appearance of the waxy maize starch became rough when oxidized with sodium hypochlorite. When homogenate of the oxidized waxy maize starch solution and corn germ oil was stored under room temperature for 24 hours, the emulsion stability was considered to depend on starch concentration and degree of substitution.

An oxidized starch ester was prepared and used for surface sizing. Esterification of starch decreased both Brookfield viscosity and Brabender viscosity substantially even though the solids level was increased by 2% from 14% to 16%. Surface sizing with the esterified starch gave better performance in tensile strength, stiffness and compressive strength than surface sizing with oxidized starch in the laboratory. Advantages in strength improvement, however, were not obtained when it was applied in commercial papermaking process. This was attributed to the fact that the influence of starch types has been nullified by high pressure penetration that occurs in the commercial papermaking process. Drying energy consumption, however, decreased by 3.3% by substituting the low solids oxidized starch with a high solids starch ester.

Periodate-oxidized soluble starch and maltohexaose reacted with ${\alpha}-NH_2$ group of free amino acids and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of peptidyl lysine. The result shows that periodate-oxidized soluble starch and maltooligosaccharides reacted with protein and formed Schiff base between CHO group of oxidized sugar and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of surface lysine of protein molecule. Carbon and hydrogen composition of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ modified with oxidized soluble starch increased and it's nitrogen composition decreased. Carbohydrate contents of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ modified with oxidized soluble starch were 13.2% (pentamer), 13.4% (monomer), and with oxidized maltohexaose were 9.7% (pentamer), 9.3% (monomer) by $phenol-H_2SO_4$ method. Alpha-amino group of N-terminal, and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of lysine, of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ were reacted with oxidized soluble starch by dinitrophenylation were 70% (pentamer), 73% (monomer) and 33% (pentamer), 26% (monomer), respectively, in comparison with native enzyme.

Corn starch was modified by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as an attempt to expand the application of starches in food industry. Corn starch was oxidized with 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5% active Cl/g starch at pH 7.0 and $25^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. The size, shape and amylose content of oxidized starches were similar to those of native corn starch. As the extent of oxidation increased, solubility, swelling power and the amount of soluble amylose increased, X-ray diffraction patterns changed, and relative crystallinity decreased. In Brabender amylogram, oxidation did not chance the gelatinization temperature, but oxidized starches had a lower peak in viscosity and their cooled pastes gave less setback, compared with native corn starch.

Viscoelastic behavior of oxidized starch gel, modified with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and the adding effects of protein in oxidized starch gel was studied by dynamic viscoelastic measurement. The storage modulus(G′) of starch gel increased with the increase of starch concentration. They showed higher value when starch suspension was treated to 95$^{\circ}C$ rather than 85$^{\circ}C$. Consistency of starch gel was decreased over 1.0% active Cl/g starch when heated to 95$^{\circ}C$, which means that the swelling of starch granules increased with concentration of NaOCl and showed more sensitive against shear. As the extent of oxidation increased, starch granules were easily destroyed. Therefore, it is hard to separate between compartment of leached-out amylose and that of amylopectin, which means that the ability of gel formation was reduced. When oxidized starches were gelatinized in presence of soy protein and sodium caseinate, it was found that G′ decreased, and frequency dependence of G′ and G" increased with the increased degree of oxidation in starch. The reduce of starch-protein interaction was thought to be through the dissociation of the branched amylopectin, which playa leading role in protein interaction, with the oxidation of starch.

The objective of this study was to develop anti-browning agents for commercial ready-to-eat pear products, which are preferred not only to maintain the flavor, color and texture of pears, but also to increase consumers' preference. The sliced 'Shin-go (Niitaka)' pears were immersed in 5% and 10% oxidized starch, 1% citric acid, and 5% and 10% oxidized starch with addition of 0.1% sucralose for 3 minutes, and then they were packaged in vacuum sealed bags at $1^{\circ}C$ for 9 days. In order to evaluate the quality of packaged sliced pears, the quality index was determined in terms of color, firmness, soluble solids, and sensory quality. With the passage of storage time, no specific variation in firmness and soluble solids was observed. However, the ${\Delta}E$ value of the sliced pears treated with 5% oxidized starch solution was significantly lower than that of the other pears. Also, the Hunter L and b values of the sliced pears treated with 5% oxidized starch solution remained nearly constant from the beginning of storage. This observation shows that 5% oxidized starch solution was effective in reducing surface browning of sliced pears. Moreover, sliced pears treated with oxidized starch solution with addition of 0.1% sucralose were given an overall liking score which was slightly higher than that given to the other pears because of the sweetness of sucralose. In conclusion, 5% oxidized starch solution with addition of 0.1% sucralose was effective in reducing browning of sliced pears and in improving the taste of sliced pears.

Physicochemical properties of potato starches oxidized with sodium hypochlorite containing 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0% active Cl/g starch at pH 7.0 were examined. Carboxyl group contents of oxidized potato starches were proportional to active chlorine concentration in use and water binding capacity, alkali number, and solubility increased with increasing the degree of oxidation. Blue value and iodine binding property indicated the change of amylose structure by the oxidation. Gelatinization trends obtained from transmittance and DSC thermograms showed that gelatinization temperature was lower as starch was oxidized higher. X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs implied oxidation might occur on the surface amorphous regions of starch granule.

In recent years, numerous studies have been carried out to find out the possible substitution of PE-coated paperboards used in packaging of watery or oily foods. Accordingly, this study was carried out to obtain the basic data for producing higher functional coating agents for pulp mold by evaluating various kinds of mixed coating agents. At that time, two kinds of synthetic coating agents(AKD, PYA) and three kinds of natural coating agent(CMC, corn starch, oxidized starch) were used for making the mixed coating agents respectively. Physical properties of coated paperboards were tested. Conclusions obtained from this study were as follows. Based on concentrations, the proper mixture ratios were 10:90(AKD:CMC), 10:90(AKD:corn starch), 10:90(AKD:oxidized starch), 40:60(PVA:CMC), 20:80(PVA:corn starch) and 20:80(PYA:oxidized starch). The mixed coating agent of PYA:corn starch(20:80) was the most efficient coating agent. Consequently, water and oil resistance were improved even with much addition of natural coating agents. We consider that they can be suitable for the packaging used in the storage of higher moisture vegetables and other food, and also can be suitable for oily fried food.
