英文简介：The journal aims to be the premier point of reference for modern starch and non-starch carbohydrate related research and knowledge, having evolved from a focus on traditional processing of starches and their industrial applications.The journal accepts research papers, reviews, notes, and letters to the Editor across the breadth of starch and no-starch carbohydrates research and utilization. The key areas of focus are i) biosynthesis and modification, ii) nutrition (food and drinks, feed and clinical nutrition), and iii) biomedical. Authors are encouraged to submit new research findings within these areas and benefit from reading other articles within their field of interest.Starch and non-starch carbohydrates related biosynthesis and modification work accepted for submission to the journal includes: genotype specific variation; structure and properties of biosynthetic enzymes; influence of the environment on starch biosynthesis; mutations (including GM crops); development of α-glucan structures and their interactions; biosynthesis and interactions of non-glucans within (and associated with) starches (proteins and lipids); granule structure and architecture; chemical, biochemical, and physical modification; investigative techniques; and effects of storage upon starch structure.中文简介：（来自Google、百度翻译）该期刊旨在成为现代淀粉和非淀粉碳水化合物相关研究和知识的首要参考点，从专注于传统的淀粉加工及其工业应用发展而来。 该期刊接受研究论文，评论，注释，以及给编辑的信，涉及淀粉和无淀粉碳水化合物的研究和利用。重点关注的领域是i) 生物合成和修饰，ii) 营养 (食品和饮料，饲料和临床营养) 以及iii) 生物医学。鼓励作者在这些领域内提交新的研究成果，并从阅读他们感兴趣的领域内的其他文章中受益。 淀粉和非淀粉碳水化合物相关的生物合成和修饰工作被接受提交给该杂志包括: 基因型特异性变异; 生物合成酶的结构和性质; 环境对淀粉生物合成的影响; 突变 (包括转基因作物); Α-葡聚糖结构及其相互作用的发展; 淀粉 (蛋白质和脂质) 内 (及其相关) 非葡聚糖的生物合成和相互作用; 颗粒结构和结构; 化学，生化和物理修饰; 调查技术; 以及储存对淀粉结构的影响。
