Acorns are important forestry resources in the central and southern regions of Portugal. To preserve these fruits and to optimize their use, techniques like drying are needed. The effects of different drying temperatures on starch-related functional properties of acorn flours obtained from dried fruits of Quercus rotundifolia (QR) and Quercus suber (QS) were evaluated. Flours were characterized for amylose and resistant starch (RS) contents, swelling ability, and gelatinization properties. Drying temperature mainly affected amylose content and viscoamylographic properties. Amylograms of flours from fruits dried at 60 °C displayed higher consistency (2102 B.U. and 1560 B.U., respectively, for QR and QS). The transition temperatures and enthalpy were less affected by drying temperature, suggesting few modifications in starch structure during drying. QR flours presented different functional properties to those obtained from QS acorn flours. The effect of drying temperatures were more evident in QR.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Correia, Paula R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leitão, António E.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Beirão-da-Costa, Maria L.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effect of drying temperatures on chemical and morphological properties of acorn flours</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Journal of Food Science &amp; Technology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acorn (Quercus suber and Quercus rotundifolia)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chemical properties</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">drying</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">morphology</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/j.1365-2621.2009.01988.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">44</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1729 - 1736</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drying curves at diﬀerent temperatures were established for Quercus suber and Quercus rotundifolia fruits.
