Starch is one of the main components of the human diet and also one of the most abundantly available sources of polysaccharide on mother earth. It is a storage polysaccharide and available in different plant sources such as cereal grains, tapioca rhizomes or potato tubers. In plant tissues, it occurs in the form of granules with the size and shape typical of the plant it derives from. Starches of various plant species differ in granules morphology, amylose and amylopectin content, degree of crystallinity, resistance to amylolysis or pasting characteristics. Industrial application of starches has been well explored through physical, chemical and enzymatic modifications or their combinations in order to alter its properties respective to the intended use. Modified starches have been well characterized with the use of modern analytical techniques and physicochemical properties were well established for different industrial application. Starch diversifications opened a new era for utilization of native starches as a multifunctional base material that can be tailored based on the industrial requirements.
