Table 4.

Digestion properties of starches.

Tissues Native Starch Gelatinized Starch
RDS (%) SDS (%) RS (%) RDS (%) SDS (%) RS (%)
Flesh 1.7 ± 0.2 4.3 ± 0.3 94.1 ± 0.2 73.0 ± 1.1 5.1 ± 0.2 21.9 ± 1.2
Peel 1.4 ± 0.3 3.4 ± 0.2 * 95.2 ± 0.3 * 72.3 ± 0.7 4.5 ± 1.0 23.2 ± 0.5

RDS: rapidly digestible starch; SDS: slowly digestible starch; RS: resistant starch. Data are mean ± standard deviations for triplicate. * The data show significant difference between flesh and peel starches (* p < 0.05).
