As the second most abundant trace element in the human body, zinc nutrition is constantly a
hot topic. More than one-third population is suffering zinc deficiency, which results in various …

In their pristine state, starch and lignin are abundant and inexpensive natural polymers
frequently considered green alternatives to oil-based and synthetic polymers. Despite their …

Soluble dietary fiber (SDF) from the peel of papaya (Carica papaya Linn.) was recovered
through alkaline extraction (alkaline-extracted SDF, a-SDF) and ultrasound-assisted alkaline …

The objective was to compare the action of different hydrolases for producing porous corn
starches. Amyloglucosidase (AMG), α-amylase (AM), cyclodextrin-glycosyltransferase …

Microwave–ultrasound-assisted facile synthesis of a dumbbell-and flower-shaped potato
starch phosphate (PSP) polymer, hereafter PSP, was carried out by cross-linking the …

Hydroxyapatite (HA)–polymer composite based 3D printed bone grafts require extensive
mechanical and biological property optimization for specific clinical needs. This fuels the …

In this study, effect of cross-linking with 4% sodium trimetaphosphate on the structural and
adsorptive properties of porous wheat starches was investigated. The results showed that …

Porous starches might offer an attractive alternative as bio-adsorbents of a variety of
compounds. However, morphology and physicochemical properties of starches must be …

NMR spectroscopy is used to study the structure and composition of diverse food materials
including starch, which is utilised in food and other industries. NMR spectroscopy has been …

Abstract Anemarrhena asphodeloides polysaccharide (AAP70-1) was reported to have
immunomodulatory effects in our previous report. To further improve the immunomodulatory …
