When public health professionals envision a program to address health issues in a particular community, tapping into the community's expertise and enthusiasm is frequently an essential issue.
1 The two forms are sometimes described as  anomers  since they are isomers at the anomeric center. 2  To assign the cyclic form of a carbohydrate as the Î±- or Î²- form look at the relative positions of the-CH 2 OH group and-OH (or-OR) group at the anomeric center. In the Î²- form, the exocyclic O group at the anomeric center is on the same face as the-CH 2 OH group. 2  If a mixture of the Î±- and Î²- anomers are present, then this is often represented by using a wavy line to represent the bond:
1 Starch is a storage polysaccharide composed entirely of glucose monomers. 2  Most of these monomers are joined by 1â4 linkages (number 1 carbon to number 4 carbon) between the glucose molecules. 3  The simplest form of starch, amylose, is unbranched and forms a helix.
