Different treatments applied include acid hydrolysis (AHPRS), pullulanase-debranching (PDPRS), autoclaving (ACPRS), ultrasound-autoclaving (UAPRS), and microwave cooking (MCPRS). Subsequently, the native, processed and recrystallized starch were subjected to in vitro digestion using thermostable α-amylase and amyloglucosidase to obtain the isolated RS. The Mw values of RS samples ranged from 2.448 × 104−9.750 × 106 g/mol, with the highest value noticed for ACPRS, and the lowest one for NPRS. The B-type and a small amount of V-type crystalline pattern was observed in all RS samples. Based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) measurement, the RS isolated from native pea starch, which is of type II resistant starch, exhibited the significantly lowest crystallinity and degree of order (DO), compared with RS3 samples prepared from processed and recrystallized starch. The relative crystallinities measured by 13CNMR (16.78–18.97%) were generally higher than the values of crystallinity obtained from XRD (3.36–12.23%). The strongest absorption that is related to O-H stretching between 3000 and 3600/cm o...
