Starch is the main form in which plants store carbon. When cooked in water, starch forms gels or pastes that have a wide range of industrial applications in both food and nonfood industries.
Major uses for starch include a thickener in processed foods, and in the manufacture of paper, biodegradable plastics and adhesives. Starch is often modified after extraction to generate properties desirable for specific industrial purposes: there is interest in breeding new crops in which the native starch already has these
Starch occurs as semicrystalline granules, composed of branched and linear polymers of glucose.
Starch granules vary in size and shape between plant organs and between species.
