In vitro examination of starch digestibility of Saba banana (Musa 'saba'(Musa acuminata x Musa balbisiana)): Impact of maturity and physical properties of digesta
The digestibility of starch in Saba banana as affected by maturity and physical properties of digesta was investigated. The results suggested that the physicochemical changes accompanying maturation and the physical properties (i.e. high viscosity and presence of intact cell structure) of food could significantly impact the rate of starch digestion.
