Biosynthesis of Potato Starch

Potato starch exists in the thin wall of cells in the tuber with granules forming. The starch granules are usually round or oval, with a 25-100 um diameter. The internal structure of the granules is weak and the phosphate group charge in the molecular structure is mutually exclusive, so the effect of potato starch expansions is better. It is composed of 21% amylose and 79% amylose. It is a highly sticky and highly transparent paste. Its molecules contain phosphate groups and no fatty acids. Tuber starch content has to have an optimal range for table and processing potatoes, and starch yield is a decisive criterion for production or industrial uses. These quality traits are therefore based on breeding programs aiming at the selection of improved varieties for direct consumption, processing, and industry.

Potato Starch Manufacture Service at CD BioGlyco

Potato starch and modified starch are largely needed in all walks of life, so it is vital to develop methods to improve the yield and quality of starch as much as possible. CD BioGlyco customizes the best process, including the production of crude starch and delicate starch, to meet the customer's native material needs, pharmaceutical, chemical processes, or other industries. In processing, we pick up the free starch from the paste after the first crushing and supplement the coarse residue after extracting the free starch as the second grinding, which can improve the grinding efficiency of potatoes.

CD BioGlyco is a professional starch manufacturing company with raw materials of high-quality potato varieties, complete production, and analysis processes to ensure the best quality starch production services for customers, products widely used in food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and other fields.

• The production of high quality, high purity potato starch is 20000 tons.
• Potato starch with excellent white, viscosity, gelatinization temperature, transparency, expansion, and good film formation, anticoagulant, and sedimentation indexes.

Applications

• In the food industry, potato starch is a high-carbohydrate source that is odorless, colorless, odorless, soft and provides a transparent gel.
• In the textile industry, it has a unique texture, and can be used as a gelling agent instead of gelatin and common starch and other ingredients.
• Others include control of blood sugar levels and the ability to absorb carcinogenic and harmful chemicals.

Advantages

• Potato starch is highly swollen during production, 5-10 times higher than other starches.
• The full sealing process ensures the color and microbial indicators.
• Potato starch production process using low temperature pulse drying technology, and low gelatinization temperature, without damaging the nutrients.

CD BioGlyco provides the production of various grain Native Starch, refined starch, Modified Starch, and starch derivatives. Our service has been recognized by many national scientists. If you are interested in Carbohydrate Manufacture services, please feel free to contact us for more information.
