11. Within the cytoplasm amylopectin granules may be present. 12. Additionally, the formation of the crystal structure of amylopectin requires the incorporation of water. 13. The other component is amylopectin , which makes up 70 80 % of the structure. 14. And waxy maize contains 100 % amylopectin . 15. Nevertheless, the exact arrangement of chains within the amylopectin molecule is still not clear. 16. High glycemic foods contain refined grains, refined sugars, and increased amylopectin / amylose ratio. 17. It consists of two types of molecules : the linear and helical amylose and the branched amylopectin . 18. Amylopectin is highly branched, being formed of 2, 000 to 200, 000 glucose units.19. There are maize germplasm collected that range from less than 20 to 100 % complement of amylopectin . 20. As early as in 1956, it was stated that amylopectin contained three different types of chains.
