In this study, cereals with high starch content, including brown rice, corn, and buckwheat were pretreated by extrusion. The physicochemical properties of extruded-puffed cereals obtained from different extrusion conditions were analyzed herein. The puffed extrudates exhibited lower bulk density, higher water solubility and gelatinization as compared to untreated cereals. The FTIR-ATR results confirmed a decrease in the crystalline structure of extruded-puffed cereals. A higher Vₘₐₓ/Kₘ value was observed in the enzymatic saccharification of puffed extrudates that significantly improved hydrolysis rate and yield. Finally, the high-maltose syrup was produced via the enzymatic hydrolysis of extruded-puffed cereals at high substrate concentrations (20 %). After hydrolysis for 180 min at an enzyme substrate ratio (E/S ratio) of 0.2, the syrup with dextrose equivalent (DE) value of 63, 62, and 61 were obtained from extruded-puffed brown rice, corn, and buckwheat, respectively. Our results showed the potential of using extruded-puffed cereals for producing high-maltose syrup.
