Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starch: Chemistry and Technology, Second Edition focuses on the chemistry, processes, methodologies, applications, and technologies involved in the processing of starch. The selection first elaborates on the history and future expectation of starch use, economics and future of the starch industry, and the genetics and physiology of starch development. Discussions focus on polysaccharide biosynthesis, nonmutant starch granule polysaccharide composition, cellular developmental gradients, projected future volumes of corn likely to be used by the wet-milling industry, and organization of the corn wet-milling industry. The manuscript also tackles enzymes in the hydrolysis and synthesis of starch, starch oligosaccharides, and molecular structure of starch. The publication examines the organization of starch granules, fractionation of starch, and gelatinization of starch and mechanical properties of starch pastes. Topics include methods for determining starch gelatinization, solution properties of amylopectin, conformation of amylose in dilute solution, and biological and biochemical facets of starch granule structure. The text also takes a look at photomicrographs of starches, industrial microscopy of starches, and starch and dextrins in prepared adhesives. The selection is a vital reference for researchers interested in the processing of starch.

Download or read book Industrial Uses of Starch and its Derivatives written by R.W. Radley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1976-09-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature of starch has proliferated in the last ten years at an almost geometric rate and a number of important changes and developments in the technology of starch and its derivatives have taken place which makes it highly desirable to review these in some depth. The immensity ofthe subject determined the writer to seek the assistance of a number of prominent workers throughout the world. Where older work contains factual information of present value it has been retained, generally in the form of Additional References. These are brief abstracts which will help specialised searchers in a branch of the subject to complete the information given in the text. Inclusion of dis jointed information can often lead to the loss of coherence and clarity, and the device of the Additional References, whilst allowing smooth presentation, also allows the inclusion of up-to-the-minute material appearing after the main text has been written. Apart from the immense amount of important practical and theoretical detail required to produce and use starch for many applications in a number of important industries, a thorough knowledge is also required of a number of aspects for the successful buying and selling of starch. This book was written and published contemporaneously with two others entitled Starch Production Technology and Examination and Analysis of Starch and Starch Products. The three books together provide a wide coverage of starch technology and chemistry with the self-contained individual volumes providing precise information for specialist readers.
Download or read book Chemical Properties of Starch written by and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-03-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the chemical properties of starch. The book is a rich compendium driven by the desire to address the unmet needs of biomedical scientists to respond adequately to the controversy on the chemical properties and attendant reactivity of starch. It is a collective endeavor by a group of editors and authors with a wealth of experience and expertise on starch to aggregate the influence of qualitative and quantitative morphological, chemical, and genetic properties of starch on its functionalities, use, applications, and health benefits. The chemical properties of starch are conferred by the presence, amount and/or quality of amylose and amylopectin molecules, granule structure, and the nature and amounts of the lipid and protein molecules. The implication of this is comprehensively dealt with in this book.

Download or read book Chemistry and Technology of Biodegradable Polymers written by G. Griffin and published by Springer. This book was released on 1993-12-31 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s the subject of biodegradable plastics has acquired a rapidly growing literature of academic research papers. It has also acquired a formidable volume of patent documentation and all this has been over whelmed by an astonishing quantity of serious media and political com ment. A new entrant into any technical arena w. ould, in most technologies, simply visit their technical library and pick up a text book on the subject in the expectation of absorbing the basic facts before launching into the daily task of updating and evaluating. Scientific conferences have produced many substantial volumes carrying the word 'biodegradable' on their covers, and there has even been a specialist monograph on the topic of bacterially produced polymers but, surprisingly, no book has yet emerged providing a general survey of the subject. Having devoted half my pro fessional career to the subject of biodegradable plastics I agreed to take on the editorial job of producing such a book when asked by the publisher. I knew that the task of finding expert specialists and persuading them to contribute dispassionate accounts of their specialisms would not be easy, but the difficulties that I have encountered were far greater than I expected. Some were simply too busy, others were involved in patent disputes or commercial negotiations. In giving an account of the work that I and my students carried out at BruneI University I believe that I have written in a manner that displays enthusiasm without prejudice.

Book excerpt: Amylose is the linear polymeric fraction of starch which has its unique characteristics leading to its specific role in the application of starches and its own. Amylose forms a significant proportion of the macromolecular structure of starch. Written by a selected team of international authors, including academicians and researchers with special expertise on starch chemistry, technology and functions, the book âAmylose: Properties, Structure and Functions' is a unique approach to the multifaceted trends of amylose chemistry, properties, functionality and applications. Under the collaborative editorial guidance of Dr Himjyoti Dutta and Dr Sanjib Kr Paul, who are experienced in researches on starch, starch-based composite materials and other biomaterials, the book provides an overview of all the scientific and technological approaches on amylose. Traditional and recent analytical methods for amylose purification and characterization have been thoroughly discussed in this book. The role of amylose in major starch sources suggesting specific usage in food and other complex edible and non-edible matrices have been covered. Recent findings on its peculiar properties, directing it to the ever growing world of functional biopolymers have been discussed. Amylose polymorphism and complex formation with non-starch components have been elaborated for optimum knowledge dissemination on its potential use as nano-scale material for food, drug, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries. The editorial team, with the collaboration of authors throughout the globe, executed the idea of bringing a reference book on amylose in the name of âAmylose: Properties, Structure and Functions'. The editors emphasized to include all the present day aspects of amylose to address the need of students, researchers and industry experts in a global perspective.
