The study investigated the effect of modification on the physicochemical and drug release properties of starches extracted from African rice (Oryzaglaberrima Steud) (AR) and Fonio (Digitariaexilis Stapf) (FR). The starches were modified by pregelatinization and carboxymethylation. The morphology and...
