| 11. | Within the cytoplasm amylopectin granules may be present.
|
| 12. | Additionally, the formation of the crystal structure of amylopectin requires the incorporation of water.
|
| 13. | The other component is amylopectin, which makes up 70 80 % of the structure.
|
| 14. | And waxy maize contains 100 % amylopectin.
|
| 15. | Nevertheless, the exact arrangement of chains within the amylopectin molecule is still not clear.
|
| 16. | High glycemic foods contain refined grains, refined sugars, and increased amylopectin / amylose ratio.
|
| 17. | It consists of two types of molecules : the linear and helical amylose and the branched amylopectin.
|
| 18. | Amylopectin is highly branched, being formed of 2, 000 to 200, 000 glucose units.
|
| 19. | There are maize germplasm collected that range from less than 20 to 100 % complement of amylopectin.
|
| 20. | As early as in 1956, it was stated that amylopectin contained three different types of chains.
