Multi-branched nature of amylose and the action of debranching enzymes

TL;DR: The multi-branched nature of amylose samples from several plant sources was revealed quantitatively by these methods, and the concurrent action of Aerobacter pullulanase and sweet-potato beta-amylase hydrolysed the amylOSE completely.

Macromolecular modifications of manioc starch components by extrusion-cooking with and without lipids

TL;DR: In this article, the macromolecular structure of manioc starch, extruded without and with lipids (oleic acid, dimodan, soya lecithin and copra) was studied, using chemical, enzymic, viscometric and chromatographic methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

The fine structure of amylopectin

TL;DR: In this article, the ratio of A and B chains in a partially branched amylopectin has been determined, and the results are discussed in relation to possible structures for amylopsectin.
