Amylolysis of native and hydrothermally treated starches : a comparative study using enzyme kinetics as an approach to understanding starch digestibility

The initial action of porcine pancreatic a-amylase (PPA, EC 3.2.1.1) on various native and hydrothermally treated starches was investigated, in order to understand how structural differences in the substrate influence starch digestion. Initial reaction rates at various starch concentrations were mea...
