“…Strong evidence exists that the process-induced levels of pectin thermosolubilization determine the permeability of the CW for digestive enzymes [ 21 , 22 , 23 ], and by this modulate starch digestion (in beans) [ 21 ]. Literature suggests that CW properties are likely to govern enzymatic penetration through the CW, such as CW thickness, density, and composition, as well as the size, and the number of CW ‘pores’ [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. Depending on the botanical source plant cells differ in their composition, especially their non-cellulosic polysaccharides [ 29 ], CW permeability [ 22 ] as well as starch to protein ratios [ 30 ].…”
