Characterizing Moisture Uptake and Plasticization Effects of Water on Amorphous Amylose Starch Models Using Molecular Dynamics Methods [PDF]
Dynamics and thermophysical properties of amorphous starch were explored using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Using the OPLS3e force field, simulations of short amylose chains in water were performed to determine force field accuracy.

Starch branching enzymes and their genes in Sorghum [PDF]
Starch is an important raw material both for food and non-food purposes. It is synthesized and stored in source and sink tissues in plants. The starch deposited in amyloplasts of storage tissues possesses several physico-chemical properties, which makes ...

The priming of amylose synthesis in Arabidopsis leaves [PDF]
We investigated the mechanism of amylose synthesis in Arabidopsis leaves using C-14-labeling techniques. First, we tested the hypothesis that short malto-oligosaccharides (MOS) may act as primers for granule-bound starch synthase I.

The Effect of Using Different Kinds of Rice Containing Amylose on Yoghurt Quality [PDF]
Amylose is an essential source for plant energy. It has been broken down by α-amylose to maltotroise and maltose, which could be used as a source of energy. Amylose / amylopectin ratio is an important determinant of starch quality.

Increasing the amylose content of durum wheat through silencing of the
Background High amylose starch has attracted particular interest because of its correlation with the amount of Resistant Starch (RS) in food. RS plays a role similar to fibre with beneficial effects for human health, providing protection from several ...
