  • NOVEL SLOWLY DIGESTIBLE STORAGE CARBOHYDRATE
    Publication number: 20100099864
    Abstract: The present invention relates to slowly digestible storage carbohydrates (starch, glycogen) having a branching degree of at least 8.5% and a side chain composition comprising at least 10% of DP 5-7. Said slowly digestible carbohydrates can be produced by treating the substrate (glycogen, starch) from a native source with a glycogen branching enzyme derived from Rhodothermus obamensis, Rhodothermus marinus, Deinococcus radiodurans or Deinococcus geothermalis.

  • Use of modified starch as an agent for forming a thermoreversible gel
    Patent number: 6864063
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of modified starch obtainable by treating amylose containing starch in aqueous medium with an enzyme from the group of the ?-1,4-?-1,4-glucosyl transferases (EC 2.4.1.25) or an enzyme the activity of which corresponds to that of enzymes from the group just mentioned, as an agent for forming a thermoreversible gel. The invention also relates to products in the form of a thermoreversible gel having as gel-forming substance a modified starch as defined. The invention further relates to the use of a modified starch as defined in the form of an aqueous solution.
