Starch-g-P(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide)/PVA semi-interpenetrating network (semi-IPN) hydrogels were prepared by aqueous solution polymerization method. Starch grafting copolymerization reaction, semi-IPN structure and crystal morphology were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The PVA in the form...

Soluble Starch Synthase III-1 in Amylopectin Metabolism of Banana Fruit: Characterization, Expression, Enzyme Activity, and Functional Analyses.

Frontiers in plant science

Miao H, Sun P, Liu Q, Jia C, Liu J, Hu W, Jin Z, Xu B.

Front Plant Sci. 2017 Mar 30;8:454. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.00454. eCollection 2017.

Soluble starch synthase (SS) is one of the key enzymes involved in amylopectin biosynthesis in plants. However, no information is currently available about this gene family in the important fruit crop banana. Herein, we characterized the function of MaSSIII-1...

Functional group analysis of starches reacted with urea-phosphoric acid-Correlation of wet chemical measures with FT Raman spectroscopy.

Carbohydrate polymers

Passauer L, Bender H.
PMID: 28457460
Carbohydr Polym. 2017 Jul 15;168:356-364. doi: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2017.03.094. Epub 2017 Mar 30.

Because the degree of substitution (DS) of chemically modified starches strongly affects their physicochemical properties and applications, rapid techniques for its determination are crucial. In the present work, ammonium starch phosphates carbamates (SPC) were obtained by reacting starch with...

Effect of reprocessing cycles on the degradation of PP/PBAT-thermoplastic starch blends.

Carbohydrate polymers

PMID: 28457463
Carbohydr Polym. 2017 Jul 15;168:52-60. doi: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2017.03.054. Epub 2017 Mar 19.

The solid waste management problems caused by the accumulation of plastics require measures to mitigate the environmental damage, and mechanical recycling of plastics is among the possible solutions. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate the effects...

Starch nanoparticles resulting from combination of dry heating under mildly acidic conditions and homogenization.

Carbohydrate polymers

Kim JH, Kim J, Park EY, Kim JY.
