Abstract
ABSTRACTBlack gram (Phaseolus mungo L.) starch was isolated. The starch yield was 45% on flour weight basis. Starch granule size ranged from 7.5–28.5 μm (length) to 7.5–27.0 μm (width). Hylum length ranged from 25–100% of the starch granule length. Amylose content of starch was 26.65% (starch basis). Gelatinization temperature range for the starch was 71.5–74.0°C. Unlike several legume starches, black gram starch had a peak viscosity as indicated by Brabender Viscoamylograph. The starch viscosity was dependent on pH and ionic strength. The raw as well as cooked starch was resistant to hog pancreatic α‐amylase hydrolysis in vitro.
