PROCESS FOR PREPARING AN INHIBITED STARCH

摘要

The present invention provides a process for preparing an inhibited starch comprising, in order: a) extracting starch from a native source and partially refining to provide a partially refined starch having a residual protein content on a dry starch basis of more than 0.4 % by weight and less than 8.0 % by weight; b) treating said partially refined starch with a bleaching agent to provide an inhibited starch; and c) recovering said inhibited starch.
