A detailed characterisation of five gluten-free starches (corn, wheat, rice, tapioca, potato) was performed in this study. In addition, the influence of these starches, with different compositional and morphological properties, was evaluated on a simple gluten-free model bread system. The morphological characterisation, evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, revealed some similarities among the starches, which could be linked to the baking performance of the breads. Moreover, the lipid content, though representing one of the minor components in starch, was found to have an influence on pasting, bread making, and staling. Quality differences in cereal root and tuber starch based breads were observed. However, under the baking conditions used, gluten-free rendered wheat starch performed best, followed by potato starch, in terms of loaf volume and cell structure. Tapioca starch and rice starch based breads were not further analysed, due to an inferior baking performance. This is the first study to evaluate gluten-free starch on a simple model bread system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/foods5020030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,21]],"date-time":"2016-04-21T10:25:21Z","timestamp":1461234321000},"page":"30","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":76,"title":["Fundamental Study on the Impact of Gluten-Free Starches on the Quality of Gluten-Free Model Breads"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Stefan","family":"Horstmann","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College Cork, College Road, Cork, Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Markus","family":"Belz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College Cork, College Road, Cork, Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mareile","family":"Heitmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College Cork, College Road, Cork, Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4144-4575","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emanuele","family":"Zannini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College Cork, College Road, Cork, Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elke","family":"Arendt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College Cork, College Road, Cork, Ireland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Thomas, D.J., and Atwell, W.A.
