Modification of potato starch is conducted by the electrochemical method and its physical-chemical properties are studied. Modification of potato starch by the electrochemical method consisted in rolling through an electrolyzer a 30% starched suspension, catolyte – a 2% NaCl solution. The electrochemical treatment was conducted during 60 min at different strength of current: 0.2; 0.6; 2 and 7 А. It was found that the electrochemical treatment of starch was similar to the nonselective oxidization, and the physical-chemical properties of potato starch modified by the electrochemical method depended on the strength of current and turned out to be similar to the properties of oxidized and acid modified starches
