What 10.620 includes

• Starch is the organic matter found in granular form in the aerial parts of plants during the maturation stage. The organic matter found in granular form in the underground parts of plants (roots, tubers, rhizomes) during the maturation stage is called flour. Tapioca is the product obtained by heating flour or other moistened, granulated starchy substances. Glucose syrup is the product obtained by the incomplete hydrolysis of starch and is presented as a concentrated and purified aqueous solution. High-fructose corn syrup is obtained from the complete hydrolysis of starch followed by enzymatic and refining processes. Dextrose is obtained from the complete hydrolysis of starch followed by refining and crystallization processes. Maltitol syrup is the product obtained by hydrogenating a high-maltose glucose syrup. Artificial honey is derived from invert sugar, a compound of equal parts glucose and fructose; it is also obtained from the hydrolysis of refined sugar (sucrose) solutions. Caramel (used as a coloring or flavoring agent) is obtained from the more or less prolonged pyrogenation of sugars (glucose or sucrose) or molasses at temperatures between 120° and 180°C. Inulin is a substance chemically similar to starch and flour.
• The production of starches from: - corn - rice - other grains - potato - cassava - other plant materials
• The production of: - caramel - dextrose - glucose - gluten - inulin - glucose syrups - maltose - artificial honey - corn cakes
• The milling of wet corn.
• The production of tapioca from cereals and legumes and of tapioca substitutes prepared from starch.

What 10.620 excludes

• The production of potato flour, flakes, and semolina (subclass 10.309).
• The production of milk sugar (lactose) (subclass 10.509).
• The production of corn flour (polenta) (subclass 10.613).
• The production of cane sugar in sugar mills and the production of sucrose in refineries (subclass 10.720).
