Abstract: The digestibility of rice starch gels was studied during storage. The results showed the contents of slowly digestible starch(SDS) and resistant starch(RS) were increased as the amylose network formed and stabilized during short-term storage, which showed that the amylose network was largely resistant to amylase. During long-term storage, the contents of SDS increased as storage time increased. The reason was the recrystallization of amylopectin.

Key words: rice starch, digestibility, slowly digestible starch, resistant starch
