Effect of particle size on kinetics of starch digestion in milled barley and sorghum grains by porcine alpha-amylase
Abstract
The influence of milled grain particle size on the kinetics of enzymatic starch digestion was examined. Two types of cereals (barley and sorghum) were ground, and the resulting grounds separated by size using sieving, with sizes ranging from approximately 0.1 to approximately 3 mm. In vitro enzymatic digestion was performed, using pancreatic alpha-amylase, amyloglucosidase and protease, to determine fractional-digestion rates over 24 h. The resulting glucose production rate data were well fitted by simple first-order kinetics. For each sieve screen size, the digestion rate of barley was always higher than that of sorghum. The rate coefficients for digestion showed a decrease with increasing size, and could be well fitted by an inverse square relationship. This is consistent with the supposition that starch digestion in these systems is controlled by diffusion of enzyme through the grain fragment. Apparent diffusion coefficients of alpha-amylase obtained by fitting the size dependence were 0.76 (sorghum) and 1.7 (barley) x 10(-7) cm2 s-1, 9 (sorghum) and 4 (barley) times slower than predicted for a molecule of the size of alpha-amylase in water.

“Food particle size, for example, is an important predictor of starch bioaccessibility, as the fractured particle surface is exposed to enzymes, whereas diffusion is required for enzymes to access starch in the underlying cell layers (Al-Rabadi et al., 2009).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
