Experiments conducted by DR.. Alex
ander p. Anderson in the laboratories
Of the New York Botanical Garden
are said to have developed a method
by which, with the application of heat
10 starch grains, the granules are ex
banded to many times their original
dimensions, being fractured into in
Vulnerable fragments by the process
Thus, a grain of rice is expanded to
eight or more times its original vol
ume, while still retaining its original
form. Other cereals exhibit similar
behavior. The material prepared in
this way is absolutely sterilized, and
may be preserved or stored for q long
time. The products have met with
approval from food and chemical ex.
perts. and the process bids fair to
prove Of greater economic and com.
mercial value.
