Tapioca starch was modified using branching enzyme (BE) isolated from Bacillussubtilis 168 and Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase (BSMA), and their molecular fine structure and susceptibility to amylolytic enzymes were investigated. By BE treatment, the molecular weight decreased from 3.1 × 108 to 1.7 × 106, the number of shorter branch chains (DP 6–12) increased, the number of longer branch chains (DP >25) decreased, and amylose content decreased from 18.9% to 0.75%. This indicated that α–1,4 linkages of amylose and amylopectin were cleaved, and moiety of glycosyl residues were transferred to another amylose and amylopectin to produce branched glucan and BE-treated tapioca starch by forming α–1,6 branch linkages. The product was further modified with BSMA to produce highly-branched tapioca starch with 9.7% of extra branch points. When subject to digestion with human pancreatic α-amylase (HPA), porcine pancreatic α-amylase (PPA) and glucoamylase, highly-branched tapioca starch gave significantly lowered α-amylase susceptibility (7.5 times, 14.4 times and 3.9 times, respectively), compared to native tapioca starch.
