Abstract excerpt
The structure and digestibility of endosperm water-soluble α-glucans from different sugary-1 maize mutants (Zhongtian 8#, Zhongtian 2# and Pintian 8#) were investigated. The yield of pure glucan was in the range of 25.91-34.38%. The α-glucan belonged to a typical native nano-scale particle and the average particle size was in the following order: Zhongtian 8# >Pintian 8# >Zhongtian 2#. The weight-average molar...
