Purified starch (5 mg) was weighed, resuspended in water (0.9 mL), heated in a boiling water bath for 15 min under intermittent vortex mixing. The solution was then mixed with 0.1 mL of sodium acetate (0.1 M, pH 3.5), NaN3 (5 mL, 40 mg/mL), and 2.5 mL isoamylase, and heated in a water bath at 37 °C for 3 h. Afterward, 5 mL of anhydrous ethanol was added to the solution, followed by centrifugation at 4,000 rpm for 10 min. A DMSO/LiBr solution (1 mL) was added and dissolved by heating at 80 °C for 2 h.
The chromatographic device was a GPC-MALS system, consisting of a U3000 liquid-phase system (Thermo, USA), an Optilab T-rEX differential detector (Wyatt technology, CA, USA), and a DAWN HELEOS-II laser light scattering detector (Wyatt Technology, CA, USA).
According to the properties of specific compounds, gel exclusion columns (Ohpak SB-805 HQ: 300 × 8 mm, Ohpak SB-803 HQ: 300 × 8 mm) with appropriate molecular weight ranges were used, the column temperature was 60 °C, injection volume was 100 μL, mobile phase A was 0.5% LiBr and DMSO, the flow rate was 0.3 mL/min, and the gradient and isocratic elution for 120 min.

The molecular weight of the starch samples was analyzed using a GPC-RI-MALS system (Wang et al., 2023 (link)), which consisted of a U3000 HPLC (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), a Wyatt DAWN HELEOS II laser light scattering detector (Santa Barbara, CA, USA), and a Wyatt Optilab T-rEX differential detector (Santa Barbara, CA, USA). For determination, 5 mg of starch and 5 mL of DMSO were mixed and heated at 80 °C for 3 h until the starch was completely dissolved. The injection volume was set to 200 μL. Sample separation was performed at 60 °C on three tandem GPC columns (Ohpak SB-805 HQ, 300 × 8 mm; Ohpak SB-804 HQ, 300 × 8 mm; and Ohpak SB-803 HQ, 300 × 8 mm). DMSO served as the mobile phase with 0.5% LiBr. The flow rate was set at 0.3 mL/min, and the dn/dc value was 0.07 mL/g.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
