A high-throughput method for determining the amylose content of rice. [PDF]
PLoS ONERice is one of the world's most abundant food crops. The amylose content is a key factor affecting the production of high-quality rice. The commonly used method for determining the amylose content is the Iodine-Starch colorimetric method.

Effect of amylose content in corn starch on the rheological properties, 3D printability, and in vitro digestive properties [PDF]
Food Chemistry: XHigh amylose corn starch (HACS) is a promising functional food ingredient, resisting digestion. Amylose content matters for starch gelatinization, gel formation, and 3D printing. It also links to the content of resistant starch (RS). Achieving optimal 3D

A Simple and Low-Cost Method to Classify Amylose Content of Rice Using a Standard Color Chart
Plant Production Science, 2009 An alternative method to classify amylose content in rice was developed. In this method, based on amylose-iodine colorimetry, a standard color chart was used instead of a spectrophotometer to successfully classify a wide range of cultivars with known and

Structural Features and Digestibility of Corn Starch With Different Amylose Content [PDF]
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2021 In this study, the in vitro digestibility of corn starch with different amylose content was determined. The results showed that waxy corn starch (WCS) and corn starch (CS) have the highest digestibility, while high amylose corn starch (HACS) has a higher
