Cereal Chem. 77(6):750–753 Starch samples isolated from wheat flour that represented four possible waxy states (0, 1, 2, and 3-gene waxy) were subjected to crushing loads under both dry and wet conditions. Calibrated loads of 0.5–20 kg were applied to the starch samples and the percentage of damaged granules was visually determined. Under dry crushing conditions, starches containing amylose (0,...

Archaea are environmentally ubiquitous on Earth, and their extremophilic metabolically versatile phenotypes make them useful as model systems for astrobiology. Here, we reveal a new functional group of halo(natrono)archaea able to utilize alpha-d-glucans (amylopectin, amylose glycogen), sugars, glycerol electron donors carbon sources sulfur respiration. They facultative anaerobes enriched from ...

With the increasing greenhouse effect, high temperature has become most unfavorable environmental factor for rice grain filling process, affecting yield and quality mainly through changing composition structure of starch in grains. Research focused on rational management water fertilizer, spraying exogenous chemicals, which have important measures to alleviate stress rice. As a multifunctional ...

This research is aimed at producing alternative starch used for tablet binding from amura tuber. The microbiological load and physicochemical properties of native modified starches were determined using plate counting method standard BP. Amylose amylopectin content spectrophotometric method. Binding disintegrant abilities these studied paracetamol as a model drug. Paracetamol tablets formulated...

This research was carried out to determine effect of sorghum cultivars and copper foliar spray on physiological traits under saline water situation via split plot experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications during 2015 and 2016 year. The main plot consisted sorghum cultivars at three level (Kimia, KGS10, KGS4) and Copper foliar spray (C1: 0 or control...

Today, the use of natural polymers and their replacement with synthetic polymers in various fields of science has attracted much attention. Reducing the associated risks, easy access, and being cost-effective are among the advantages of using natural polymers compared to the synthetic polymers. In this research, the destruction of amylopectin in the presence and absence of titanium dioxide nano...

In order to enhance the value of seeds P. santalinoides, consumed like peanut by certain populations Côte d'Ivoire, studies on a few physicochemical and functional properties have been carried out starch extracted from these seeds. Indeed, humidity rate, percentage amylose amylopectin as well non-carbohydrate composition (proteins, lipids, ash) were evaluated. addition parameters, shape size gr...

Cereal Chem. 71(6):532-536 Automated gel-permeation chromatography (GPC), with application pectins with a molecular weight of 107_109, which yielded fragments of of the universal calibration concept, was used to investigate the mechanism 1041 07. Consistent with gravity-flow GPC with dimethyl sulfoxide, sepaof extrusion-induced starch fragmentation in corn. High-amylose and ration indicated tha...

Of all the crops, rice is one that consumes most water. Rice yields and quality are significantly influenced by irrigation. However, it still unknown how different irrigation practices would affect grain yield of water-saving drought-resistant rice. Hyou 518 (high-yielding variety) Hanyou 73 (water-saving were employed as materials. Three regimes set up in field: conventional flooding (CF), alt...
