Does the DMSO step used in the Total Starch Assay Kit (AA/AMG) (K-TSTA) solubilise starch that has been vitrified due to malting/kilning?

Yes. We believe that the DMSO step will solubilise vitrified starch in malt. Make sure that the malt is milled to pass a 0.5 mm screen. You could vary the time of cooking with DMSO to check solubilisation (i.e. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or even up to 1 hour).
