ABSTRACT
Potato starch was estrified with phosphoric acid (V), saturated with iron cations (III) and heated with glycin. The mono-starch phosphate made was additionally saturated with iron cations (III) or heated with glycin. The susceptibility of the preparations to the action of a-amylase and gluco-amylase was determined. The modifications of potato starch induced a lowering of the starch susceptibility to the amylolytic enzymes action. The most resistant to amylase action was the preparation obtained by heating mono-starch phosphate (V) with glycin.
