Functional properties of a promissory Dioscorea trifida waxy starch for food innovation [PDF]

, 2010
Starches with low amylose contents generally exhibit good gel clarity, high swelling power and RVA peak viscosity, large breakdown, and high resistance to retrogradation during gel storage, as compared to some other starches with higher amylose contents.

Techno‐Economic Analysis of Polylactic Acid from Corn Stover: Understanding Uncertainty and Variability via Artificial Intelligence Tools

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study analyses the uncertainty and variability existing in the economic performance of polylactic acid (PLA) production, via integrating techno‐economic analysis with process models and Monte Carlo simulation enabled by artificial intelligence. The results show that the minimum selling price varies from $2,107 to $3076/t PLA.

Sequence-specific protein aggregation generates defined protein knockdowns in plants [PDF]

, 2016
Protein aggregation is determined by short (5-15 amino acids) aggregation-prone regions (APRs) of the polypeptide sequence that self-associate in a specific manner to form beta-structured inclusions.
