Isomaltooligosaccharides ( IMO ) were prepared by using indica rice starch extracting from broken indica rice as raw material and thermal-stable a-amylase as liquefaction. The factors which affected liquefying of indica rice starch were investigated by single factor and orthogonal experiments after choosing appropriate dextrose equivalent value ( DE ) as the experiment index. The results showed that the optimum condition were as follows: liquefying time was 12 min, liquefying temperature was 95 ℃, the mass percent of indica rice starch pu...
