Amylopectin structure and crystallinity explains variation in digestion kinetics of starches across botanic sources in an in vitro pig model
Abstract Background Starch is the main source of energy in commonly used pig diets. Besides effects related to the extent of starch digestion, also several effects related to variation in digestion rate have recently been demonstrated in non-ruminants. Different rates of starch digestion in animals...
