The RVA parameters assessed include pasting temperature
(temperature at which starch granules begin to swell and gelatinize
due to water uptake and defined as an increase of 25 cP over a
period of 20 s), peak time (time at which peak viscosity was
recorded), peak viscosity (maximum paste viscosity achieved in
stage 2, the heating stage of the profile), breakdown (difference
between peak viscosity and trough), set back (difference between
final viscosity and trough), and final viscosity (viscosity at the end
of run)
