SMS: Sweet manioc starch; UCCS: Uncooked cornstarch

¹There was a unique annual batch number for the sample A (sweet manioc starch Fritz e Frida® although the manufacture and the expiration dates are different among the samples, as indicated by a, b and c

*Total amount of sugar in the dried material

**Tapioca gum: drained sweet manioc starch before the room-temperature dry process. For this study, we conducted a lyophilization to avoid water excess

***French brand made in Brazil

Detected in only one triplicate test

Detection range (DR) and quantification range (QR). ²Saccharose: DR = 0.032 g/100 g and QR = 0.097 g/100 g; ³glucose DR = 0.022 g/100 g and QRv = 0.067 g/100 g; [4]fructose DR = 0.010 g/100 g and QR = 0.029 g/100 g.
