characteristics of potato starch cross-linked with sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP)/sodium
tripolyphosphate (STPP). These properties were evaluated by swelling factor, light
transmittance, X-ray diffraction, and in vitro digestibility tests. X-ray diffraction patterns
showed cross-linking using STMP/STPP took place mostly in the amorphous area and did
not alter the crystalline area in potato starch granules. The light transmittance and swelling …
