Low prececal digestibility of starch leads to a higher starch flux into the hindgut, causing a forced microbial fermentation, energy losses, and meteorism. For exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), lack of pancreatic amylase can be compensated mostly by hindgut fermentation of starch. Even in pigs with complete loss of pancreatic secretion, starch digestibility over the entire tract is reach...

Although wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) pericarp starch granule (PSG) has been well-studied, our knowledge of its features and mechanism of accumulation and degradation during pericarp growth is poor. In the present study, developing wheat caryopses were collected and starch granules were extracted from their pericarp to investigate the morphological and structural characteristics of PSGs using m...

The starches separated from kernels of five different Indian mango cultivars (Chausa, Totapuri, Kuppi, Langra and Dashehari) were investigated for physicochemical, morphological, thermal and rheological properties. Mean granule length and width of the starches separated from mango cultivars ranged between 15.8–21.7 and 8.7–14.1 mm, respectively. The shape of starch granules varied from oval to ...

The effects of heat treatment on oat and barley starch water dispersions were investigated. As compared with barley starch, the granules from oat starch were more degraded, but the fractionation patterns of both starches were not significantly different. Microscopic examination indicated that no evidence of amylopectin fragments was observed in the liquid fraction after starch dispersions were ...

Brun., 2010, LVIII, No. 2, pp. 139–146 Although starch in cereal grain is almost completely digested in the whole digestive tract, the rate and extent of ruminal degradation and fermentation vary widely with grain source and ce...

BACKGROUND Glucoamylase is an exo-type enzyme that converts starch completely into glucose from the non-reducing ends. To meet the industrial requirements for starch processing, a glucoamylase with excellent thermostability, raw-starch degradation ability and high glucose yield is much needed. In the present study we selected the excellent Carbohydrate-Activity Enzyme (CAZyme) producer, Bispora...

Amylum is also defined carbohydrates from plant, results photosynthesis, which stored part certain plant backup food mixture two type structure different polysaccharides that contains (17-20) % amylose (80-83) amylopectin.

BACKGROUND The proportion of starch disappearing from the small intestinal lumen is generally lower in ruminants than in monogastric animals, and there are indications that the starch digestion capacity in ruminants is limited. OBJECTIVES Milk-fed calves were used to study the rate-limiting enzyme in starch hydrolysis and to quantify starch fermentation in ruminants. METHODS Forty male Hols...
