Amylose molecule
Amylose. Computer-generated molecular model of amylose. Amylose is composed of carbon (green), hydrogen (grey-white) and oxygen (red). Amylose is a polysaccharide that is a component of starch. It makes up 20-30% of the carbohydrate. Saccharides consist of rings of four or five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Attached around the ring are hydroxyl (OH) groups. Polysaccharides comprise hundreds of monosaccharide units joined in a chain

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an Amylose molecule, a vital component of starch. The computer-generated molecular model elegantly depicts the complex structure of Amylose, composed of carbon atoms in a vibrant green hue, hydrogen atoms in grey-white shades, and oxygen atoms represented by striking red spheres. Amylose is a polysaccharide that constitutes 20-30% of carbohydrates. Saccharides form rings with four or five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom, adorned with hydroxyl (OH) groups around the ring. Polysaccharides like Amylose consist of numerous monosaccharide units linked together to form a chain-like structure. The artistic representation portrayed in this artwork not only highlights the structural intricacies but also emphasizes its significance within biochemistry. With its tube-like appearance and stick-like bonds connecting various elements, this illustration serves as an educational tool for understanding organic chemistry at a molecular level. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured the essence of this chemical compound through their graphic depiction. This image provides viewers with an opportunity to appreciate the complexity and elegance found within nature's building blocks. Whether you are studying chemistry or simply fascinated by scientific artistry, this print offers both aesthetic appeal and valuable insights into the world of molecules and polymers such as Amylose
