A Furunori-like polysaccharide was prepared from the paste of wheat starch for 2 weeks by a new method combining alpha-amylase treatment of the paste and the washing of the paste to remove low molecular-weight materials during retrogradation of the paste. Structural properties of the Furunori-like polysaccharide and Furunori samples were investigated by comparing their iodine affinity, average molecular-weight, and distributions of the unit chain-length and whole chain-length. The degree of retrogradation was also compared using the beta-amylase-pullulanase method and the X-ray diffractometer. All results of these experiments showed similarities between the Furunori-like polysaccharide and Furunori samples. Their similarity of structure and degree of retrogradation appears greatly to provide the Furunori-like polysaccharide with an adhesiveness and smoothness similar to that of the Furunori samples.
