Funded Activity Summary

The first structure/function-derived starches for the food and related industries. The project will use equipment and theory, developed in Australia, to create the first understanding of the characteristics that govern the performance of complex polymers as emulsifiers. The insights so gained will be a key step towards developing improved modified starches for the food and other industries. These advances will also provide the science by which new modified starches can be produced from sorghum, a drought-resistant crop well suited to Australia.
