Before revision: This has been subsequently verified by others who have performed Monte Carlo simulations of glycogen particle growth, and shown that the molecular density reaches a maximum near the centre of the nanoparticle structure ( not at the periphery (contradicting a fractal structure that would have greater density at the periphery).
