The data are presented as mean values ± SD (n = 3). The different letters for values in the same column indicate significant differences (p < 0.05); NC: native chestnut starch, UC: ultrasonic modified starch, MC: microwave modified starch, UMC: ultrasonic-microwave modified starch, MUC: microwave-ultrasonic modified starch.
