Tritiated starch granules.
1. Surface-labelling of starch granules by tritiation seems feasible, and a technique is described that could be useful in structure determination. The impurities that are produced must be taken into account but the fact that a high polymer can be successfully tritiated seems very promising. 2. The surfaces of corn-starch granules must contain both amylose and amylopectin.
