Some structural and physicochemical characteristics of tuber and root starches”, food sci... Phosphorous and amylose contents were determined using a colorimetric method and measuring iodine affinity, respec-tively....
Highly efficient and reversible iodine capture inhexaphenylbenzene-based conjugated microporous polymers... The presence of a high number ofamine functional groups combined with microporosity provides the HCMPswith extremely high iodine affinity with uptake capacities up to 336wt %, which is to the best of our knowledge the highest reported todate....
Comparative evaluation of physico-chemical characteristics of flours from steeped tubers of white yam (dioscorea rotundata poir), water yam (dioscorea alata l.) and yellow yam (dioscorea cayenensis lam.)... Results obtained showed that all the test parameters, Water Retention Capacity (WRC), Swelling Index (SI), Solubility (TSS) and Iodine Affinity of Starch (IAS) correlated very much better and significantly (Pr< 0.10)...
Studies on the metabolism of the protozoa. the molecular structure of a starch-type polysaccharide from polytoma uvella... The starch differs from normal plant starches in having a lower iodine affinity, and in being relatively insoluble; this latter property makes fractionation difficult....
