Starch can be hydrolyzed into simpler carbohydrates by acids‚ various enzymes‚ or a combination of the two. The resulting fragments are known as dextrins. The extent of conversion is typically quantified by dextrose equivalent (DE)‚ which is roughly the fraction of the glycosidic bonds in starch that have been broken. These starch sugars are by far the most common starch based food ingredient and are used as sweetener in many drinks and foods. They include: Maltodextrin‚ a lightly hydrolyzed (DE

Tiltle: What was happened to the bananas? Objective: To compare the amount of reducing sugars and starch in yellow and green bananas. Introduction: Bananas are green in colour and taste flat but after they are harvested and stored for some days‚ they will turn yellow from green and become sweet. Hypothesis: The green banana tasted plain because it contained large amount of starch‚ while the yellow banana tasted sweet since it contained large amount of reducing sugars. Biological principles:

direction of an enzyme reaction. Amylase is a digestive enzyme found in both the saliva and the small intestine. Salivary amylase is a hydrolytic reaction that breaks down starch molecules by systematically breaking off the maltose molecules from the ends of starch chains. The maltose is further broken down by another enzyme. Phosphorylase is an enzyme that systematically removes glucose molecules by consumes phosphoric acid to break the beta-1-4-glucosidic bonds in starch. The interaction of phosphate

SBI3U1 November 6th‚ 2014 Spit and Armpit Lab Partners: Kara Washer and Josh Young Abstract This lab shows the use of salivary amylase with strong and weak starch mixtures to break down complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars. This lab was conducted to physically see the breakdown of carbohydrates into simpler sugars (glucose‚ fructose‚ galactose) using the salivary amylase enzyme. This is extremely important to all metabolic functions in the human digestive system. It is found that benedict’s
