Waxy Maize LC??
    #15170882 - 10/03/11 09:06 AM (13 years, 3 months ago)

Anyone tried to make an LC jar with Waxy Maize as opposed to Honey or dextrose?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waxy_maize

I know as far as post workouts it's absorbed in your lower intestine much quicker than even pure dextrose. Not sure if this would directly mean that mycell would colonize or digest the waxy quicker. Kinda curious if anyone has experimented with this.

A wide variety of nutrient supplements may be employed in finely comminuted form, such as grains, starches, yeast, sugars or the equivalent, naturally occurring or synthetic proteins, and the like. The nutrients are conventional and are amply illustrated in the references cited previously. See also Block et al, Experiments and the Cultivation of P. Ostreatus, the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Scientific Aspects of Mushroom Growing, 18th-26th July, 1959, German OLS 2,012,423 and Block et al J. Agri. and Food Chemistry 6, 923 (1958).

A wide variety of sources of starch may be used, having a major amount of starch such as rice, potato, corn, tapioca, sago, waxy maize, wheat, sorghum, and arrowroot, particularly rice and potato. The starches will normally provide from about 5 to 20, more usually from about 7 to 15 weight percent of the dry weight. Frequently, included with the naturally occurring starch material will be various amounts of plant protein.

this was about the only brief mention i could find google'n for mushrooms and waxy maize. I know it's just a corn starch, just more refined... and it really didnt have too much relevance for LC's.
