Abstract

Disclosed is a method for preparing a modified starch hydrolysate that has a relatively reduced tendency to become sticky as compared with the unmodified starch hydrolysate. The method includes the step of compacting a starch hydrolysate, preferably via roller compaction. Also disclosed is a modified starch hydrolysate. The compacted starch hydrolysates may be transported readily, and is useful in numerous applications, including poultry feed applications.
