About This Product
The powder is dispersed or dissolved by the approved method to give a starch solution, which reacts with iodine and is used to show starch detection and the breakdown of starch by hydrolysis or enzymes. It also supports food-testing simulations and lessons on polysaccharide structure. As a laboratory reagent rather than food-grade starch, it is kept away from food and is not eaten. The Analytical Grade Starch Powder is available for supply within India and for export to Estonia, Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Mauritania and Australia.
