The Resistant Starch Assay Kit is a specialized analytical solution designed for the measurement of resistant starch (RS) in a wide range of plant materials and starch-based products.
Resistant starch is the fraction of starch that escapes digestion in the small intestine and reaches the large intestine, where it is fermented by gut microbiota. Its physiological benefits including improved glycemic response, enhanced satiety, and support for digestive health have made RS a key focus in functional food innovation and dietary fiber analysis.
