Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Wheat composition modulates the effects of gamma irradiation on structural and conformational rearrangements of starch.
- Intervention effect Gamma irradiation increases random coil fractions of starch in wheat matrices.
- Association The most significant changes in random coil fractions after irradiation are in durum wheat, plausibly attributed to its higher protein content.
- Intervention effect Gamma irradiation increases free radicals in a dose-dependent manner in wheat matrices.
- Association Recombination kinetics of radicals differ between wheat types, influenced by their intrinsic composition.
- Method / resource Spectroscopic approaches allow rapid and non-destructive analyses of molecular structure, chemical composition and free radical content in irradiated wheat matrices.
