Abstract
Abstract A method has been developed for the determination of amylose: amylopectin ratios of starches which offers an alternative to iodimetric methods. Starches solubilized in dimethylsulphoxide were debranched with isoamylase and the resulting linear components quantitated by gel permeation chromatography on a column of Sepharose CL‐6B.
