    Residue Monograph prepared by the meeting of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), 82nd meeting 2016 : Acid Treated Starch (Tentative) 2017
    Also available in:

    Prepared at the 82nd JECFA (2016) and published in FAO JECFA Monograph 19 (2016), superseding specifications for Acetylated distarch adipate included in the specifications for Modified starches prepared at the 79th JECFA (2014), published in FAO JECFA Monographs 16 (2014). An ADI “not specified” was established at the 26th JECFA (1982). Starch is a carbohydrate polymer consisting of a large number of glucose units linked together primarily by alpha 1-4 glucosidic bonds. The starch polymers come in two forms: linear (amylose) and branched through alpha 1-6 glucosidic bonds (amylopectin), with each glucose unit possessing a maximum of three hydroxyls that can undergo chemical substitution. Acid treated starch is a modified starch. It is obtained by treatment of food starch with hydrochloric acid or ortho-phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid, in accordance with good manufacturing practice. The alteration of the starch is a minor fragmentation.

The starch polymers come in two forms: linear (amylose) and branched through alpha 1-6 glucosidic bonds (amylopectin), with each glucose unit possessing a maximum of three hydroxyls that can undergo chemical substitution. Bleached starch is a modified starch. It is obtained by treatment of food starch, in accordance with good manufacturing practice, with peracetic acid and/or hydrogen peroxide, or sodium hypochlorite or sodium chlorite, or sulfur dioxide or alternative permitted forms of sulfites, or potassium permanga nate or ammonium persulfate. The change is essentially in the colour only. Reagents are either removed or limited to technically unavoidable levels.
