Optimisation and characterisation of octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modified sago starch and its capability to stabilise emulsion / Nur Farhana Zainal Abiddin

The demand for natural, biodegradable and renewable emulsifier has led to new market for modified starch. Sago starch has met the requirements and becomes good candidates for emulsion stabilization. However, a major barrier of native sago starch is the lack of hydrophobic properties, thus the starch...
