AB Jinicuil seed starch (JSS) was partially characterized and then evaluated as wall material.JSS showed higher content of proteins, lipids, and resistant starch than commercial corn starch (CCS).JSS granules presented both oval-spherical shapes and heterogeneous sizes (~1–40 μm) and exhibiteda crystallinity lower than CCS with an A-type X-ray diffraction pattern. Both gelatinization peakand final viscosity values in the pasting profile were higher in JSS than in CCS. At 90 ◦C, the watersolubility was 22% and the swelling power was 17 g g−1. Under refrigeration and freeze-thaw, the JSSgel showed high stability. JSS showed a significant presence of protein and small particles; therefore,it was evaluated as wall material in spray drying. The results showed the formation of sphericalaggregates and encapsulation efficiencies of L-ascorbic acid of 14.97–81.84%, with process yields of19.96–27.64%, under the conditions evaluated. JSS has a potential application in the food industry butalso as wall material for microencapsulation by spray drying.
