Resistant starch (RS) is starch and starch degradation products that escape from digestion in the small intestine of healthy individuals.[1] Resistant starch is considered the third type of dietary fiber‚ as it can deliver some of the benefits of insoluble fiber and some of the benefits of soluble fiber. Some carbohydrates‚ such as sugars and most starch‚ are rapidly digested and absorbed as glucose into the body through the small intestine and subsequently used for short-term energy needs or stored

Peerless strategy Case Overview The first plant of the Peerless starch industry was started in Blair during the civil war times. It is one of the highest wages paying plants in the region sporting a five story building supported by two massive towers. The other plants in the region have all shut down and currently Peerless starch is the only active plant in the region and it employs 8000 of the 120000 residents of the Blair. Company has three more plants in Illinois‚ Oregon and Texas which

Materials and Equipment – Slump Test 3. Slump Test 4. Materials and Equipment - Vebe 5. Vebe Test 6. Conclusion 1. Introduction The purpose of this laboratory was to first test the effect that increasing water content would have on the workability of fresh concrete‚ completed by way of a slump test. The second part of the laboratory was to check what the influence of a superplasticiser would have on workability of fresh concrete‚ this was completed by completion of a Vebe test. 2.

LAB REPORT Introduction: In a chemical change‚ the identities of substances change and new substances form. In an equation the substances on the left are the reactants. The substances on the right are the products. In this experiment the objectives are to observe evidence that a chemical change has taken place. Infer from observations that a new substance has been formed. Identify and record observations that show energy is involved in chemical change observe the color‚ solubility of some substances

Timothy Johns Christian Howard Wan Huang 10/18/12 Flame Test Lab Introduction Spectroscopy is the study of the electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by atoms and molecules. These studies are very helpful in determining an unknown element‚ given the fact that all elements burn a different color. The flame colors vary because of the different amounts of energy the elements give off. This lab is made for the learner to determine the identity of two unknown elements. Hypothesis If

1. Introduction The Jominy end-quench test is a technique that has the ability to harden the steel by quenching. It is an essential feature of materials that determine the material’s selection for particular applications. The different types of steels and alloys that are used for hardening in an industry are done by this test and considering that this test is a standardised experiment [1]. 1.1 Aim The specimens that are used in this test are normalized in accordance with the standards. The purpose

affect the rate of starch digestion measured using starch and iodine? Introduction Amylase is an enzyme found in human saliva and pancreas. It is the digestive enzyme that is needed to breakdown starch molecules. Amylase must be kept at certain conditions to function at its optimum level. This experiment will explore the effect of pH (1‚ 4‚ 7‚ 10‚ and 14) on the function of amylase by using starch and iodine. Usually iodine has a orange-yellow color‚ but iodine and starch react to produce a
