Force-extension of the Amylose Polysaccharide
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder in which auto-antibodies directed at the acetylcholine receptors (AChR) of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) block, alter or destroy their targets. The anti-AChR antibodies cause activation of the classical complement pathway leading to inflammatory …

Total starch and amylose levels during synchronous growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa
… reserve; the total cellular starch and amylose, of a high temperature strain of Chlorella pyrenoidosa, was measured during two consecutive synchronous growth cycles in continuous light. Although the rate of starch accumulation exhibited dramatic periodism, when expressed on a cellular …

An alternative quantitative method and molecular genetics of amylose in Australian wheats
… procedure was developed to determine the amylose content in wheat starch. The experimental approach was based on agarose gels using a borate buffer and entailed optimisation of gel concentration, staining method, elecfrophoretic conditions and starch solubilisation conditions. Laser …

Elucidation Of Chiral Recognition Mechanisms Of Solutes By Amylose Tris[(s)-Alpha-Methylbenzylcarbamate] Sorbent
… mechanisms of a widely used commercial sorbent, amylose tris[(S)-alpha-methylbenzylcarbamate], for benzoin (B) enantiomers were first studied. The HPLC data for benzoin with pure n-hexane as the mobile phase have been obtained. The behavior of sorbent-solute-hexane systems can be interpreted by …

Characterization of amylose lipid complexes and their effect on the corn dry grind process
… solids content and particle size on formation of amylose lipid complexes (AML) were observed. This helps determine better methods of application in the dry grind industry by providing reasons for decreasing available starch. In the conventional dry grind process, starch in corn is liquefied to …

Impact of Low-Amylose, Waxy Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Flour Blends on Functional Tortilla Characteristics
… of waxy wheat lines having low levels of amylose starch has provided new possibilities to characterize the impact of starch on end-use food quality and functionality. The unique rheological characteristics of waxy wheat may improve food texture and shelf-stability, by producing softer …

Factors Affecting Starch Conversion to Ethanol in Dry Grind Corn Process
… content in dry grind corn process. Effect of amylose:amylopectin ratios and resistant starch in corn starch on ethanol concentration was evaluated with four enzyme treatments operating at varying temperature and pH liquefaction conditions. Final ethanol concentrations decreased with increase …

Effect of Enzymatic Treatments on the Physiochemical Properties of Different Corn Starches
<p>Amylose readily reassociates to form films and crystalline structures that are resistant to digestion by amylolytic enzymes and known as resistant starch type III (RS3). This study investigated the RS3 formation and cereal coating properties from enzyme-modified corn starches with varying …

Analysis of Starch Branching Enzyme 1 (SBE1) Gene in Maize
… the short arm of chromosome 5 (5S) for endosperm amylose content. In that original study, both low and high amylose parental lines, H99ae and GEMS-0067 respectively, were homozygous recessive for <em>amylose extender 1 (ae1)</em> and the polymorphism responsible for this QTL was additive …

Cloning and characterisation of the waxy genes of wheat and investigation of their potential applications
Wheat starch consists of amylose and amylopectin. The appropriate end-use of starch is dependent on an important property of starch, the ratio of amylose:amylopectin. Amylose is synthesized by the waxy protein, a predominant enzyme in the endosperm, the granule-bound starch synthase (GBSSI). A …

The Functional Properties and Digestibility of Round and Wrinkled Pea Flour in Swine
… but their starches differ in the proportion of amylose and amylopectin. Wrinkled peas have a higher proportion of amylose due to the deficiency of the starch branching enzyme I (SBEI). In contrast, round peas have a lower proportion of amylose and higher total starch content. A higher proportion …

GENETIC ANALYSIS OF SELECTED SEED CONSTITUENT TRAITS IN CHICKPEA (Cicer arietinum L.)
… thousand seed weight (TSW), protein, starch and amylose concentrations were analyzed in three distinct chickpea germplasm collections grown in multiple environments. The study utilized three distinct germplasm collections: (i) a reference (237 genotypes); (ii) composite (168 genotypes) and (iii) …

The Fracture Behavior and Mechanical Performance of Biodegradable Cornstarch Plastic Composites
… and SPI fillers as anti-crack agents in high-amylose starch plastics were not obvious, but the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the high-amylose cornstarch/cellulose composite were 8106 psi and 201 ksi, respectively, which are greater than those of polypropylene. Comparison of the …

The characterization of starches and maltodextrins by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
… oxide (D$\sb2$O) to enhance the solubility of amylose in physical mixtures of waxy maize amylopectin and isolated normal corn amylose. Phasing of spectra, drift correction, width of narrowed spectra, and integral size are factors that were found to influence ratio determinations.

Regioselective Design of Polysaccharide Ester Graft Copolymers
… especially polyglucopyranoses such as amylose and cellulose, is difficult due to the similar reactivities of pendant hydroxy groups. One distinct structural feature of amylose and cellulose is the sole primary hydroxy group located at the C6 position of each monosaccharide. The …

Microencapsulation of an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid source with polysaccharides for food applications
… with chitosan and blends of chitosan, high-amylose starch, and pullulan as wall materials. The primary objectives of this research were (1) to evaluate the effect of chitosan type and oil:wall ratio on ω3 PUFA microcapsule properties, (2) to evaluate the effect of blending chitosan with …

Fermentation of resistant starch: implications for colonic health in the monogastric animal.
… varying amounts of the major components amylose and amylopectin, was examined. In particular, the effects on bacterial fermentation of variations in the ratios of amylose and amylopectin in starch, and of treatments such as retrogradation and/or pancreatin digestion was examined.
