A Universal Feature in the Structure of Starch Granules from Different Botanical Sources

Jenkins, Paul J., Cameron, Ruth E., Donald, Athene M.·1993·Starch - Stärke

Abstract

Starch samples from different botanical species show few unifying features in either structure or function: for example both the amylose/amylopectin ratio and the amylopectin chain length are found to vary extensively with botanic source. We have applied a detailed analysis to data obtained from small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) of a variety of different starches which has shown the existence of a constant structural periodicity. This finding suggests the possibility of a general mechanism governing the way starch is laid down in different species.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
