Influence of amylose content on starch films and foams

Carbohydrate Polymers, 1995
Abstract After extraction of smooth pea starch and waxy maize starch from pure amylose and amylopectin fractions, films with various amylose contents were prepared by casting in the presence of water or water with glycerol. For unplasticized films, a continuous increase in tensile strength (40–70 MPa) and elongation (4–6%) was observed as amylose ...

A relationship between the amylose and lipid contents of starches from various mutants for amylose content in maize

Journal of Cereal Science, 1991
Starches were isolated from the endosperms of single and double mutants of maize and from endosperm gene dosage series of waxy and amylose extender mutants. In many of the starches, anomalous types of amylopectin were present, which gave false values for amylose (AM) content, measured either coloriimetrically or by gel permeation chromatography (GPC ...

Variation in Faba Bean Amylose Content

Starch - Stärke, 1999
In peas, a wide range of amylose contents has been avail-able for a very long time. One of Mendel’s original genes, forwrinkled seeds, was shown to encode a lesion in the starchbranching enzyme I [1]. Wrinkled pea starch contains 60–90% amylose whereas smooth pea starch has 30–45%[2–5].

Amylose content decreases during tuber development in potato

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2016
AbstractBACKGROUNDPotato starch is composed primarily of amylopectin and amylose in an approximately 3:1 ratio. Amylose is considered to be nutritionally desirable in North American and European markets, so there is interest in finding strategies to increase the amylose content of potato starch.

Prediction of Starch Amylose Content Versus Total Grain Amylose Content in Corn by Near‐Infrared Transmittance Spectroscopy

Cereal Chemistry, 1999
ABSTRACTA study was conducted to investigate methods of improving a near‐infrared transmittance spectroscopy (NITS) amylose calibration that could serve as a rapid, nondestructive alternative to traditional methods for determining amylose content in corn. Calibrations were developed using a set of genotypes possessing endosperm mutations in single‐ and

Calorimetric Determination of the Amylose Content of Starches Based on Formation and Melting of the Amylose‐Lysolecithin Complex

Journal of Food Science, 1981
ABSTRACT Amylose‐lysolecithin complexes, formed in an exothermic reaction when amylose or starches are heated with water and lysolecithin, melt at temperatures near 107°C. With excess lysolecithin present, formation of the maximum amount of amylose complex requires cooling after the first heating (during which gelatinization of starch

Thermodynamic Properties of Barley Starches with Different Amylose Content

Starch - Stärke, 1998
Several barley starches with different amylose content were studied by differential scanning calorimetry. Thermodynamic parameters such as the melting enthalpy and melting peak temperature of the crystalline lamellae and amylose-lipid complexes were determined.

Amylose Content and Chain Profile of Amylopectin from Normal, High Amylose and Waxy Barleys

Starch - Stärke, 1994
AbstractThe amylose content and the chain profile of amylopectin from normal, waxy and high amylose barley starches were determined after enzymatic debranching and gel permeation chromatography and the degree of branching of the amylopectin was analysed by 1H‐n.m.r. spectroscopy. The normal barley starch contained around 30%, the high amylose around 40%

Amylose Content and Puffed Volume of Gelatinized Rice

Journal of Food Science, 1984
ABSTRACT A total of 113 experimental and commercial rough rice consisting of 6 short, 49 medium and 58 long grain types were used to determine the role of amylose and other selected properties on the puffing characteristics of gelatinized rice.

Efficient measurement of amylose content in cereal grains

Journal of Cereal Science, 2010
Abstract Rapid and economical measurement of amylose content in barley is important for genetic study and breeding improvement of this trait. Seventeen genotypes with a wide range of amylose contents were used to compare the amylose measurement accuracy of the cost-effective iodine–potassium iodide (I:KI) method to the commercially available enzyme ...
