Modified starch
Use physical, chemical and enzymatic methods to alter the properties of natural corn starch to meet the needs of all industries
Medicine
Corn starch is the most important raw material in the antibiotic industry, because almost all antibiotics are produced by corn starch fermentation, such as penicillin, cephalosporin, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, streptomycin, etc.
