Starchy foods always contain non-starch components, which can affect starch digestibility.
Mixtures of ungelatinized corn starch with a common non-starch component, pectin, were
used to investigate pectin's effect on starch digestibility rate and evolution of starch
molecular structure during digestion using amyloglucosidase and pancreatin. The whole-
molecule size distribution and the chain-length distribution of chains were measured by size …
