Stiff; precise; rigid. [R.] --Killingbeck. StarchStarch Starch, n. [From starch stiff, cf. G. st["a]rke, fr.
stark strong.]
1. (Chem.) A widely diffused vegetable substance found
especially in seeds, bulbs, and tubers, and extracted (as
from potatoes, corn, rice, etc.) as a white, glistening,
granular or powdery substance, without taste or smell, and
giving a very peculiar creaking sound when rubbed between
the fingers. It is used as a food, in the production of
commercial grape sugar, for stiffening linen in laundries,
in making paste, etc.
Note: Starch is a carbohydrate, being the typical amylose,
C6H10O5, and is detected by the fine blue color given
to it by free iodine. It is not fermentable as such,
but is changed by diastase into dextrin and maltose,
and by heating with dilute acids into dextrose. Cf.
Sugar, Inulin, and Lichenin.
2. Fig.: A stiff, formal manner; formality. --Addison.

To stiffen with starch. Starch celluloseCellulose Cel"lu*lose`, n. (Chem.)
The substance which constitutes the essential part of the
solid framework of plants, of ordinary wood, linen, paper,
etc. It is also found to a slight extent in certain animals,
as the tunicates. It is a carbohydrate, (C6H10O5)n,
isomeric with starch, and is convertible into starches and
sugars by the action of heat and acids. When pure, it is a
white amorphous mass. See Starch, Granulose, Lignin.
Unsized, well bleached linen paper is merely pure
cellulose. --Goodale.
Starch cellulose, the delicate framework which remains when
the soluble part (granulose) of starch is removed by
saliva or pepsin. --Goodale. Starch hyacinthStarch Starch, n. [From starch stiff, cf. G. st["a]rke, fr.

under Grape. starch sugarDextrose Dex"trose`, n. [See Dexter.] (Chem.)
A sirupy, or white crystalline, variety of sugar, C6H12O6
(so called from turning the plane of polarization to the
right), occurring in many ripe fruits. Dextrose and levulose
are obtained by the inversion of cane sugar or sucrose, and
hence called invert sugar. Dextrose is chiefly obtained by
the action of heat and acids on starch, and hence called also
starch sugar. It is also formed from starchy food by the
action of the amylolytic ferments of saliva and pancreatic
juice. starch sugarGlucose Glu"cose`, n. [Gr. ? sweet. Cf. Glycerin.]
1. A variety of sugar occurring in nature very abundantly, as
in ripe grapes, and in honey, and produced in great
quantities from starch, etc., by the action of heat and
acids. It is only about half as sweet as cane sugar.
Called also dextrose, grape sugar, diabetic sugar,
and starch sugar. See Dextrose.
2. (Chem.) Any one of a large class of sugars, isometric with
glucose proper, and including levulose, galactose, etc. Starched
