Abstract excerpt
Average chain lengths and beta-amylolysis limits have been determined for the waxy and ae/wx genotypes of mature maize starch, and for the amylopectin fractions of normal and amylose-extender starches (prepared by precipitation with concanavalin A), rabbit-liver glycogen, phytoglycogen, and waxy rice starch. All amylopectin samples had similar A:B chain ratios of > 1 and the two glycogens had ratios of < 1. This...
