Introduction: Alisma starch (AS) from Alismatis Rhizoma has potential applications but has been ... The determination of amylose content was conducted using a colorimetric method. Standard solutions ...

which work by blocking the enzyme 'amylase' involved in starch (amylose and amylopectin) digestion. "It [carb blockers] can reduce a considerable amount of starch, breaking down into glucose ...

Carbohydrates are made up of three components: fiber, starch, and sugar. Fiber and starch are complex carbs, while sugar is a simple carb. Depending on how much of each of these is found in a food ...

Most other types of rice contain amylopectin along with another starch called amylose, and the level of "stick" will depend on the proportions of those two starches. Although it is naturally ...

GAG mimetics were synthesized from cellulose (pSC), starch (SS), and chitin (ChS). pSC has beta-glycosidic linkages, SS has alpha-glycosidic linkages, and ChS has beta-glycosidic linkages and monomers ...

In recent years, sourdough bread has experienced a remarkable resurgence, capturing the interest of health-conscious ...
