Banana starch modified by heat moisture treatment and annealing: Study on digestion kinetics and enzyme affinity.

Starch modification by annealing (ANN) and heat-moisture treatment (HMT) results in a lower crystallinity compared to native but the change of B crystalline type to A type is only observed in HMT starch. All starches possess two different digestion rate constants i.e.
