Physicochemical properties of Korean Ginseng (panax ginseng, C.A. meyer) Root Starch 3. Physical properties of the starch

고려인삼(Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) 전분의 이화학적 특성에 관한 연구 제3보 전분의 물리적 특성

Solubility and degree of swelling of the starch were about 15% and 30%, respectively when the starch in agueous solution was heated at 90$^{\circ}C$ for 30minutes. The starch showed no singnificant differences in the degree of swelling and soblubility with a growing period of ginseng. The starch was begun gelatinize at 50-55$^{\circ}C$ and completed at 65-70$^{\circ}C$ by the amy tical methods of X-ray diffraction, disappearance of crystalinity. Brabender angly lographic analysis and amylase digestion test. The maximum and minimum peak viscosities of 10% starch solution were 5.500 B.U and 1960 B.U, respectively. The starch showed no significant differences in pasting temperature, maximum and minimum viscosities on amylogram with a growing period of ginseng. The intrinsic viscosities of the starch and amylose were 0.54 and 1.5-1.9, respectively.
