Starch analysis method

Dorawest26 Apr, 2024Health

Starch is a polymeric carbohydrate consisting of a large number of glucose units connected by glycosidic bonds. Similarly, sucrose is a kind of carbohydrate and composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Basically, the starch and sucrose metabolism begin with D-fructose that interacts with a D-glucose in a reversible reaction through a maltodextrin glucosidase. By multiple procedures, the metabolism of starch and sucrose produce several important intermediates like glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate, which interact with other metabolic pathways including glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Creative Proteomics has advanced mass spectrometry instrumentation and a team of bioinformatic analysts to provide starch analysis method.
