    Starch is a carbohydrate polymer consisting of a large number of glucose units linked together primarily by alpha 1-4 glucosidic bonds. The starch polymers come in two forms: linear (amylose) and branched through alpha 1-6 glucosidic bonds (amylopectin), with each glucose unit possessing a maximum of three hydroxyls that can undergo chemical substitution. Dextrin roasted starch is a modified starch. It is obtained by dry heat treatment with hydrochloric acid or ortho-phosphoric acid of food star ch, in accordance with good manufacturing practice. The alteration of the starch is a minor fragmentation.

Starch sodium octenylsuccinate is a modified starch. It is obtained by esterification of food starch with octenylsuccinic anhydride, and neu tralisation with either sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate as a pH buffer, in accordance with good manufacturing practice. Starch sodium octenylsuccinate may additionally be subjected to acid, alkali, enzyme, or bleaching treatment in accordance with good manufacturing practice.

Enzyme-treated starch is a modified starch. It is obtained by treatment in accordance with good manufacturing practice, of food starch in an a queous solution at a temperature below the gelatinization point with one or more food-grade amyolyticenzymes.The alteration is a minor fragmentation.
