Abstract
⺠Saliva, gastric and intestinal digestion of polysaccharide was studied in vitro. ⺠Salivary amylase had no effect on the polysaccharide. ⺠Polysaccharide molecular weight decrease was found in gastrointestinal digestion. ⺠Reducing ends increased but no monosaccharide released during the digestion. ⺠Polysaccharide molecular weight decrease may due to breakdown of glycosidic bonds.
