But having examined the mechanism of the action, we have reached the conclusion that this change in colour is not due to the synthesis of starch, but to the formation of amylose from amylopectin.

Starch is the most common carbohydrate in foods. Starch consists of long chains of glucose called amylose and amylopectin. Different types of rice have varying amounts of these compounds ...

Here's why using sushi rice for risotto won't deliver the creamy texture you're after, and what varieties to use instead for the best results.

ABSTRACT: This study investigates the impact of marketing mix elements—Product, Price, Promotion, and Place (4Ps)—on the revenue and profit of Nigerian Breweries Plc (NBL) from 2013 to 2022, using ...

We found that the protein and apparent amylose contents of compound nutritional rice were higher than that of common rice, up to 9.775% and 19.45% respectively. The γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and ...

Starch is a complex carbohydrate that has different proportions of two polysaccharides: amylose and amylopectin. Different starches – such as potato, corn or cassava – have their own ratio of ...

Here, we propose a quantitative spectroscopic approach to analyze rice nutritional quality based on Raman spectroscopy, and disclose analytical algorithms for the determination of: (i) amylopectin and ...
