    are enzymatic desizing and oxidative desizing. Acid steeping is a risky process and may result in the degradation of cotton cellulose while rot steeping‚ hot caustic soda treatment and hot washing with detergents are less efficient for the removal of the starch sizes. * Enzymatic desizing : Enzymes are solubilizing bio catalysts‚ mainly proteins‚ thermo labile (readily changed or desized by heat) and highly specific in their action.

    rate of disappearance of starch molecules from the reaction mixture. Controlled variables: volume and concentration of starch solution; volume and concentration of amylase solution same drop size of iodine solutions; same drop size of reaction mixture taken out for iodine test. Control experiment: reaction mixture without either amylase or starch (this can show that the disappearance of starch is due to the action of amylase on starch). Assumption: 1

    which hydrolyzes starch into maltose and dextrin at a certain temperature (Biology.kenyon.edu‚ 2015). In plants such as fruits and vegetables carbohydrates are referred to starch which is polysaccharide and is converted into disaccharide and eventually into monosaccharide such as glucose with the help of amylase. (Fullick‚ Locke and Bircher‚ n.d.). If carbohydrates are not digested properly they may lead to adverse health consequences. Amylase is not only involved in the digestion of carbohydrate

    Tapioca consists of starch extracted from the cassava root. Cassava was one of the main food sources of Native Americans throughout South America. It is thought that it originated south of the Amazon River in what is now Brazil. It was being cultivated by the people in this region as far back as 8000 BC. By 6000 BC‚ it was being grown in what is now Mexico and in Peru by 2000 BC. Its cultivation would spread throughout the Caribbean well before the arrival of the Europeans. Christopher Columbus
