Abstract: Starch isolated from the seeds of horse chestnut was distributed into fine-grain and coarse-grain portions. Amylopectin was separated and the β-limit dextrin prepared was characterized by periodate oxidation. The α- and β-amylase susceptibilities were measured; it is deduced that the horse chestnut starch possesses a lower amylose content, short outer and longer inner chains than those of the reference potato starch.
