Abstract: A method for preparing an inhibited starch with improved warehouse storage stability is disclosed, wherein it comprises the steps of a) providing a slurry containing a native granular starch obtained from a starch containing raw material, b) adding at least one amino acid, or a combination of two or more of these, and at least one oxidant to the slurry with a view to inhibiting the granular starch, c) adding at least one organic acid or a bisulfite to the slurry with a view to eliminating residual reactant chemicals, off-tastes, and undesired smell, and d) adding at least one antioxidant to the slurry with a view to stabilizing the achieved inhibition of the starch during warehouse storage, as well as an inhibited starch with improved warehouse storage stability prepared with said method, use of said inhibited starch as an ingredient in a food product, and a food product containing said inhibited starch.

Abstract: A polysaccharide composition for protection of surfaces comprising an aqueous solution of at least two components, the first component (A) being a high molecular weight polysaccharide or a mixture of high molecular weight polysaccharides having an average molecular weight Mw of at least 100 000, and being capable of forming a gel, and the second component (B) being a low molecular weight polysaccharide such as locust bean or guar gum or a mixture of low molecular weight polysaccharides having an average molecular weight Mw of 400-75 000, and being capable of inhibiting gel formation in said composition.
