What is the lignin content of rice husk?
the rice husk is rich in silica content however the percentage of rice husk is about 34.5%
Why is amylopectin more compact than amylose?
Actually, amylose is more compact than amylopectin due to its helical structure. Amylose is unbranching and forms a compact helix, whereas amylopectin is a branching structure.
Does amylose contain only 1-4 glycosidic bonds?
Yes! Only 1->4 Glycosidic bonds in Amylose!
How many glucose molecules are in amylose?
there are 0
What is the monosaccharide that results frrom the complete hydrolysis of amylose?
Amylose is made up of α(1→4) bonded glucose monomers, so glucose is the only product of complete hydrolytic breakdown.
What is the lignin content of rice husk?
the rice husk is rich in silica content however the percentage of rice husk is about 34.5%
What is the difference between long and short grain rice?
The two main starches in rice are amylose and amylopectin. The grains tend to hold on the their amylose but amylopectin can leave the grain and move into the liquid being used for cooking. Long-grain rice has a lot of amylose and not much amylopectin. Short-grain rice has a good balance of both. So long grain rice will be lighter and fluffy because the grains will not get too sticky. Short grain rice will pour starch into the water it cooks in creating a sticky coating on all the grains which, if properly treated, can be made into an amazing, creamy sauce. Long-grain rices are great for dishes where rice is a base for something or playing second-fiddle to something else. Short-grain rice is superb for dishes where the rice is going to be the star, like a risotto.
What is the function of amylose?
Amylose helps keep the structure of plants amylose is good for storage in plants.
What is the starch content of rice?

What is an amylose?

What is the iron content in white rice flakes?
the iron content is 1.49 mg in 100 g rice, which gives you 11% from your daily needs of iron.

What is the cholesterol content in rice pudding?

Does brown rice or white rice have more fat content?
Both have very little fat content though both are very high in Fibre content, this helps peristalsis in the intestines. The best one for you would be brown rice, as that is it's natural colour and white rice is coloured to be white. I.e. it was originally brown
Is wheat better than rice nutritionally?
Yes. Wheat has more protein and fiber content than rice.
What are the contents of starch?
Plants store glucose as the polysaccharide starch. The cereal grains (wheat, rice, corn, oats, barley) as well as tubers such as potatoes are rich in starch.Starch can be separated into two fractions--amylose and amylopectin. Natural starches are mixtures of amylose (10-20%) and amylopectin (80-90)(elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembook/548starchiodine.html)
What is amylose a form of?
Starch
