Linearization of amylopectin. Linearization of amylopectin occurs
during the long low-temperature baking process due to the
prolonged activity of intrinsic amylases in the dough, and is
prominent in the presence of certain organic acids that is, in
bread products baked with added lactic acid (Liljeberg and others
1996). It has been reported to significantly increase RS formation
during wet-autoclaving (Berry 1986).
