Starches obtained from Seipoong and Daeji potato were classified into go starch granules $(>41{\mu}m)$ and small starch granules $(<3{\mu}m)$. Rheological properties of heat-gelatinized starch paste were studied to elucidate difference of the fractionated starches. Heat-gelatinized starch paste of potato showed Bingham pseudo-plastic behavior. The consistency index and yield stress of small starch granule paste were greater than those of large starch granule paste. As starch paste concentration increased, consistency index and yield stress of heat-gelatinized small starch granule paste increased more than those of large one. As measuring temperature increased, consistency index of heat-gelatinized starch paste decreased and temperature depedence was greater in small starch granule paste than in large one.

Starches isolated from Seipoong and Daeji potato were classified into small and large granules. The starch granule size for Seipoong and Daeji was in the range of $10-85\;{\mu}m$ and $13-90\;{\mu}m$, respectively. Seipoong starch contained more large granules $(>41\;{\mu}m)$ while Daeji starch had more small granules $(<30\;{\mu}m)$. There was no difference in water-binding capacity both between two starches and among granule sizes. Amylose content for toro starches was the same but was higher in large starch granules than small ones. Swelling powder at $80^{\circ}C$ for parent starches was essentially the same but small starch granules had much higher swelling powder than large ones. The large starch granules for Daeji showed higher peak viscosity by amylograph than small starch granules. No such difference was observed for Seipoong starch. The gelatinization temperature range of small starch granules was wider than that of large ones, but gelatinization enthalpy was the same between large and small starch granules. The starches regardless granule sizes were completely gelatinized at $70^{\circ}C$.

Large and small starch granules were isolated and characterized from kernels of Hiproly barley. Average size of large granules were $28-30{\mu}m$ and that of small granules were $6{\mu}m$. The small granules consist of 95% of total starch granules. Large granules contained more amylose than small granules. Distribution of isoamylase-debranched starch components, X-ray diffraction patterns, gelatinization characteristics by differential scanning calorimetry, and starch-granule susceptibility to acid were investigated. Large granules contained more long B chains of amylopectin and had the lower ratios of Fr. III to Fr. II , which represent one of the structural characteristics of amylopectin, than those of small granules. Small granules had higher conclusion temperature and smaller heat of gelatinization than those of large granules by D.S.C.. Both granules had A-type pattern of X-ray diffractopgrams, but hydrolysis of granules with acid showed different A-type patterns between large and small granules.

Many enzymes catalyze a primary reaction and/or secondary reaction. Dextransucrase usually synthesize dextran from sucrose as a primary reaction. The secondary reaction of dextransucrase is the transfer of glucose from sucrose to carbohydrate accepters. We have reacted dextransucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-742CB with sucrose and starches; granule or gelatinized starches, and Small or Potato starches. The yield of modified starch was ranged from 46% to 72%(s.d.<${pm}$5%) of theoretical depends on various reaction conditions. Modified products were more resistant against the hydrolysis of ${alpha}$-amylase, isoamylase, pullulanase and endo-dextranase than those of native starch. Based on the reactions from enzyme hydrolysis and methylation followed by acid hydrolysis modification of granule starch was more efficient than the modification of gelatinized starch. After modification of granule starch with dextransucrase, there produced a soluble modified starch. After modification the starch granules were fractionated to small size. The positions of glucose substitution of the modified products were determined by methylation followed by acid hydrolysis and analyzed by TLC. The products were modified by the addition of glucose to the position of C3, C4 and C6 free hydroxyl group of glucose residues in the starch.

In an agitated bead reaction system, the enzymatic saccharification of uncooked starch was substantially enhanced. The enhancement mechanism was investigated front the view of the structural aspect of starch. The mechanical impact caused by the movement of the attrition-milling media resulted neither the destruction of microcrystalline structure nor the fragmentation of starch granule. instead, the most distinct phenomenon was the swelling of starch granule up to about 2.5 times, and the swelling mechanism was not similar with that caused by cooking. However, in the case of the enzyme addition in the attrition coupled reaction system, the swollen starch was easily fragmented into the large number of small particles by the synergistic action of the enzyme and milling-media. The exposed surface area of the fragmented particles plays the major role in enhancing the saccharification. The saccharification rate was quite different depending on the source of starch, the reason was discussed in terms of the granular structure of uncooked starches.

The mechanism of enzymatic hydrolysis of raw corn starch by the purified glucoamylase and a - amylase in an agitated bead reaction system was studied by investigating the changes of sugar profiles produced by each enzyme, the granular structure of raw corn starch, the amount of enzyme adsorption on residual starch, and the amylose content in residual raw starch. The sugar profiles produced by the action of exo-type glucoamylase or endo-type $\alpha$ -amylase in an agitated bead system were not recognizably differed with those produced in reaction system without bead. Without enzyme the intergenic microcrystalline structure of starch granule was not changed by the simple mechanical impact of solid media, but it was cleaved. However, starch granule was fragment into large number of small particles by the synergistic action of enzyme and attrition-milling media, identified to be the major saccharification enhancing mechanism along with the increased amount of enzyme adsorption. The amylose content decreased more readily in an agitated bead reaction system, especially by $\alpha$ -amylase.

The starch properties of two chinese yams were evaluated in this study. Amylose content ranged 13.5% to 19.3%. The swelling power of starches varied 10.98% to 11.43%. Water binding capacity in chinese yam starches ranged 93.46% to 107.21%, high WBC was observed in Ma 1. The onset temperature (To) of two chinese yam starches ranged 62.9 to $75.0^{\circ}C$, peak temperature (Tp) ranged 76.2 to $84.7^{\circ}C$. The PHI(peak height index) was about 4-fold higher in Anwon cultivar than in Ma 1 cultivar. SEM revealed that starches has a presence of large oval or spherical to small irregular-shape granules. Starch granule size ranged 15.23 to 15.52 ${\mu}m$, showing a typical C-type X-ray pattern.

The pith and xylem parts of fresh root that turned into inside-white during processing for red ginseng was investigated under scanning electron microscope in comparison with the sa31e position of fresh root processed into normal reddening. In the inside-white part starch storage cells remain mostly in vacancy or with small number of starch granules and with large hollow by missing cell membranes between cells. Many starch seed granules appeared on the surface of storage cell wall in the inside-white part. Fresh root sample showed better picture than dried powder.

Scanning electron microscopy was used to study changes in granule shape, dough and cooked noodle structure of pea starch-wheat composite flour with 20% and 30% pea starch substitution. The granule shape of pea starch with low swelling power and solubility was oval, irregular and smooth, which had more a deep groove than corn starch and wheat flour. During gelatinization, pea starch after swelling was partially collapsed but it still held its main shape. The dough microstructure of 20% pea starch substitution showed compact structure distributed with more small starch granules than wheat dough and was held in discontinuous network. When cooked, more open filamentous network where starch gelatinization was complete were noticed. Swollen but partially collapsed large starch granules maintaining their shape were appeared in noodle structure after 30 min soaking in soup. In farinograph studies, 20% pea starch substitution to wheat flour showed that MTI value was as same as wheat flour even though stability was slightly decreased so that it was considered that it has proper property of noodle making.

Physical and structural characteristics of four local barnyardgrass flour and starch were investigated. Amylose content ranged from 6.9 to 12.5%. The BP 3563 and BP 3606 were low amylose lines, and the BP 3592 and BP 3610 showed very low amylose lines. Peak viscosities of four barnyardgrass collections BP-3563, BP-3592, BP-3606, and BP-3610 ranged 264 to 2397. All barnyard grass lines displayed an A-type X-ray diffraction pattern showing the strong diffraction peak at around $2{\theta}$ values $15^{\circ}$, $17^{\circ}$, $18^{\circ}$ and $23^{\circ}$, and a small peak at $20^{\circ}$ $2{\theta}$. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the starch granule sizes ranged $5.5-12.5{\mu}m$ in diameter showing polygonal and rarely spherical in shape with round edges and some pores at the surface. Starch crystallinity of BP 3563, BP 3592, BP 3606, and BP 3610 was 23.9, 25.0, 24.7, and 25.5%, respectively.
