Process for the preparation of resistant starch pectin modified resistant starch, and a composition comprising it

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pectin-modified resistant starch which is slowly digested or resists digestion and is safely used in food or in medical use in place of a conventional carbohydrate product or in addition to the same.;SOLUTION: The pectin-modified resistant starch is prepared by crosslinking starch with pectin by pectinesterase reaction. Such resistant starch is slightly digestible with amylase and thus is useful to reduce calorie content and increase fiber content in food products including nutritional supplements. A composition containing the resistant starch and a method for preparing the same are also provided.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
