Dissolution of xerogel (a), re-hydrogelation (b), and suppression
of re-hydrogelation in the presence of iodine (c).
experiment, iodine was included by the elongated amylose chain
to form the well-known amylose/iodine inclusion complex, which
suppressed the formation of the double helix as the junction zone.
