Rheology Study of Starch Extracted from Germinated Ragi and its Application in Textile Printing
Finger millet (Ragi) is a non-conventional carbohydrate rich source, which can be used as source of starch. Germinated ragi is generally discarded as a waste material and is used for non productive purposes. In the present investigation, starch extracted from germinated ragi has been compared with the starch from non-germinated ragi, as a thickener in textile printing.
