3) In vitro starch digestibility<br />

134<br />

In vitro starch digestibility results (Table 22) showed non-significant<br />

HFCS effect was observed for digested starch (DS), resistant starch (RS) and total<br />

starch (TS) in the butter cake samples. DS values ranged from 30.30 to 31.86% on a<br />

dry matter basis. Small amounts of RS were detected in the butter cake samples<br />

ranging from 1.39 to 1.45% on a dry matter basis. Total starch content in the HFCS<br />

cakes was lower than in the control cake (31.66 to 32.28% on a dry matter basis),<br />

however it were not significantly different (P≥0.05). Nevertheless, it can be<br />

concluded that HFCS did not improve the resistant starch content in butter cake. Lin<br />

et al., (1994) revealed that the endothermic transition temperature for melting of the<br />

amylose-lipid complex<br />

was delayed by a high concentration of sucrose. Neither the<br />

melting temperature nor the enthalpy of the amylose lipid complex (110 o C) was<br />

significantly changed when the cake samples were stored for 7 days.<br />

The content of resistant starch formed in the butter cakes is probably<br />

retrogradation of amylose lipid complex. Because the high values reported for fat<br />

content (25%) may contribute to the formation of starch/fatty acid complexes<br />

because<br />

butter was included in the formulation. In addition, it is generally accepted that<br />

amylose retrogrades very quickly after gelatinization. Judiha and Melissa (1996)<br />

found that RS content in home-prepared cake was present immediately after baking,<br />

and contained about 1.7g/ serving (95 g) of resistant starch content.
