The project will deliver a new methodology to characterize starch-containing materials such as grains. This will provide the first tools to readily measure the full size distribution of starch in industry laboratories, giving far more information than is currently accessible. The data will be extremely sensitive to structural characteristics associated with desirable end-use properties. The new process will enable conventional instrumentation methodology to be re-engineered to better select starch-containing materials. This will enable superior targeting and processing of materials for improved products in human nutrition, animal feed and manufactured goods such as biodegradable plastics.

该项目将提供一种新的方法来表征含淀粉材料，如谷物。这将提供第一个工具，可以在工业实验室中轻松测量淀粉的全尺寸分布，提供比目前更多的信息。这些数据将对与理想的最终用途特性相关的结构特性极为敏感。新的工艺将使传统的仪器方法重新设计，以更好地选择含淀粉材料。这将使材料的上级定位和加工成为可能，用于改善人类营养、动物饲料和制成品，如生物降解塑料。
