In this study, electron beam irradiation (EBI; 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 kGy), hydroxypropylation (HP) and dual modification of EBI-HP were applied to modify corn and potato starches. The results showed that the molar substitution (MS) of EBI-HP modified corn and potato starches were in the range of 0.060–0.087 and 0.080–0.124, respectively. After modifications, amylose content of corn (30.0 %) and potato (31.2 %) starches were declined to 24.2–28.1 % and 26.1–29.5 %, respectively, and relative crystallinity was reduced from 35.5 to 30.0 % for corn and 34.1 to 20.2 % for potato. Pasting properties decreased significantly in both starch sources with increasing irradiation dose. EBI decreased springiness, enthalpy of retrograded starch (ΔHr) and percentage of retrogradation (R%) on corn starches, which were different from those effects observed on potato starches. Meanwhile, HP increased peak viscosity up to 312.6 RVU and 1359.3 RVU for corn and potato starches, respectively. Moreover, EBI-HP was highly responsible for the decreases in the textural, gelatinization and retrogradation properties and relative crystallinity in both corn and potato starches. These results enhance the understanding of starch functionality modified by using both physical and chemical methods, and provide further insights on food and non-food applications.
