解説
(Zetmeel の訳語) 代表的な多糖類の一つ。植物の葉で光合成によって生成され、種子・根・地下茎などの貯蔵部に多量に蓄積される。アミロペクチンとアミロースの二成分から構成されるＤ‐グルコースの重合体で、無味・無臭の白色粉末。分子量数万～数十万の高分子物質で吸湿性があり、水と暖めると粘性の高い半透明の糊(のり)となる。高等動物の栄養素として食品となるほか、糊料、接着剤、発酵工業原料、医薬品などに広く用いられる。〔植学啓原（1833）〕
[語誌]江戸時代の蘭学において用いられた語。幕末の「英和対訳袖珍辞書」（一八六二）や「附音挿図英和字彙（初版）」（一八七三）には見えないが、「薬品名彙」（一八七三）などの学術用語集には出ており、「附音挿図英和字彙」にも第二版（一八八二）では収録されている。明治一〇年代頃に一般化したか。

化学的特性
Starch occurs as an odorless and tasteless, fine, white to off-white
powder. It consists of very small spherical or ovoid granules or
grains whose size and shape are characteristic for each botanical
variety.
使用
corn starch is used as a thickener in cosmetics and in face powders. Corn starch absorbs water and is soothing to the skin. It can cause allergic reactions such as inflamed eyes, stuffy nose, and perennial hay fever. A natural material obtained from corn kernels.
調製方法
Starch is extracted from plant sources with specific processes
according to the botanical origin. Typical production steps are
steeping (corn), wet milling (corn, potato), dry milling (wheat), or
sieving and physical separation with hydrocyclones. The last
production step is usually a centrifugal separation from the starch
slurry followed by drying with hot air. The starch separation
process may use sulfur dioxide or peroxides as a processing aid,
improving the separation process and the microbial quality of the
final product.
定義
A polysaccharide that occurs exclusively
in plants. Starches are extracted
commercially from maize, wheat, barley,
rice, potatoes, and sorghum. The starches
are storage reservoirs for plants; they can
be broken down by enzymes to simple sugars
and then metabolized to supply energy
needs. Starch is a dietary component of animals.
Starch is not a single molecule but a
mixture of amylose (water-soluble, blue
color with iodine) and amylopectin (not
water-soluble, violet color with iodine).
The composition is amylose 10–20%,
amylopectin 80–90%.
一般的な説明
Fine, white, odorless powder. Note that granules from different vegetable sources vary in shape, size, and general appearance. A mixture of the carbohydrate polymers amylose amylopectin varying according to the vegetable source. Principally used for food.
反応プロフィール
Starch is combustible. Presents a dust explosion hazard if dispersed as a fine dust in air in sufficient concentrations. Granules swell greatly in water and produce a colloidal suspension. Incompatible with oxidizing agents, acids, iodine, bases. Reacts with nitric acid/sulfuric acid mixtures to give nitroStarch, an explosive.
危険性
Dermatitis. Questionable carcinogen.
安全性プロファイル
A nuisance dust. Mildly toxic by intraperitoneal route. A skin irritant. An allergen. Flammable when exposed to flame; can react with oxidizing materials. Moderately explosive when exposed to flame.
安全性
Starch is an edible food substance, considered a food ingredient and
not a food additive. It is regarded as an essentially nontoxic and
nonirritant material. Starch is therefore widely used as an
excipient in pharmaceutical formulations.
Both amylose and amylopectin have been evaluated as safe and
without limitation for daily intake. Allergic reactions to starch
are extremely rare and individuals apparently allergic to one
particular starch may not experience adverse effects with a starch
from a different botanical source. The wheat proteins (gluten) are
problematic for conditions such as celiac disease.
Contamination of surgical wounds with the starch glove powder
used by surgeons has resulted in the development of granulomatous
lesions.
LD50 (mouse, IP): 6.6 g/kg
貯蔵
Dry starch is stable if protected from high humidity. Starch is
considered to be chemically and microbiologically inert under normal storage conditions. Starch solutions or pastes are physically
unstable and are readily metabolized by microorganisms; they
should therefore be freshly prepared when used for wet granulation.
Starch should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry
place.
不和合性
Starch is incompatible with strongly oxidizing substances. Colored
inclusion compounds are formed with iodine.
