Clitoria ternatea L. flower extract inhibits α-amylase during in vitro starch digestion [PDF]
This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effect of Clitoria ternatea flower against α-amylase during simulated in vitro wheat starch digestion. The dark-blue tropical flower is used as a food colorant but its ability to modulate starch digestion ...

Mammalian mucosal α-glucosidases coordinate with α-amylase in the initial starch hydrolysis stage to have a role in starch digestion beyond glucogenesis. [PDF]
Starch digestion in the human body is typically viewed in a sequential manner beginning with α-amylase and followed by α-glucosidase to produce glucose.

A comparison of the kinetics of in vitro starch digestion in smooth and wrinkled peas by porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase [PDF]
This study describes the impact of crop genetics and processing in two pea lines (Pisum sativum L.) on starch digestion kinetics. Mutation at the rugosus (r) locus leads to wrinkled pea seeds, a reduction in starch content and a lower extent of in vitro ...

Influence of barley grain treated with alkaline compounds or organic extracts on site and extent of digestion of starch [PDF]
Objective Two ex vivo experiments were conducted to verify the effect of barley grain (Nusrat cultivar) treated with alkaline compounds (AC) including alum, ammonium, and sodium hydroxide or cation-exchanged organic extracts (OE) prepared from alfalfa ...

The interplay of α-amylase and amyloglucosidase activities on the digestion of starch in in vitro enzymic systems [PDF]
In vitro hydrolysis assays are a key tool in understanding differences in rate and extent of digestion of starchy foods. They offer a greater degree of simplicity and flexibility than dynamic in vitro models orin vivo experiments for quantifiable ...

A mechanistic model of small intestinal starch digestion and glucose uptake in the cow [PDF]
The high contribution of postruminal starch digestion (up to 50%) to total-tract starch digestion on energy-dense, starch-rich diets demands that limitations to small intestinal starch digestion be identified.

Densely packed matrices as rate determining features in starch hydrolysis [PDF]
To aid in the design of starch-containing foods with slow and/or incomplete digestion in the upper gastrointestinal tract, the starch structural factors which control the rate of action of alpha-amylase are reviewed.
