Abstract: | Reaction of granular potato starch with urea and biuret resulted in the formation of products, which were soluble neither in cold nor boiling water. The net reaction was a monosubstitution of the hydrogen atom in one hydroxyl group in each D-glucose unit of starch with the either CO–NH2 or CO–NH–CO–NH2 moiety, respectively. Properties of the products, particularly these with urea, depended on the mode of reaction. Reactions were carried out in the microwave oven as well as with convection heating. The products retained the granular form of starch but a vast majority of granules were damaged. -Amylolysis of those materials revealed that their susceptibility to the enzyme increasing in the order: starch<starch reacted with biuret<starch reacted with urea. This order seems to reflect degree of the damage of starch granules. Susceptibility to -amylolysis with simultaneous insolubility in water make these products suitable as ruminant fodder and, eventually, biodegradable material. |
