Description Starch is a polymeric carbohydrate composed of glucose, which is a polymer of many glucose units, and the most common starch in food production is derived from corn. Starches are made up of long chains of glucose molecules, and they are made from two different types of polymers: amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is a chain of about 100 glucose molecules, and amylopectin is a chain of about 1,000 glucose molecules. The starch is made up of a few different subunits in a long chain and it is arranged in a hel
