Application of Co-bioprocessing Techniques (Enzymatic Hydrolysis and Fermantation) for Improving the Nutritional Value of Wheat Bran as Food Functional Ingrediens [PDF]
Last time the food industry pays the great attention to questions, connected with changing existing technologies for raising the efficacy of the raw materials complex processing and increasing the output of high-quality products and food ingredients with

EphA2 is an epithelial cell pattern recognition receptor for fungal β-glucans
Oral epithelial cells discriminate between pathogenic and non-pathogenic stimuli, and only induce an inflammatory response when they are exposed to high levels of a potentially harmful microorganism. The pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in epithelial

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) secretes a number of small, highly-related, disulfide-rich proteins (Sp-AMPs) in response to challenges with fungal pathogens such as Heterobasidion annosum, although their biological role has been unknown. Here, we examined the expression patterns of these genes, as well as the structure and function of the encoded ...

Abstract Chitin–glucan complex (CGC) is typically extracted from fungal or yeast biomass using harsh alkaline treatments that not only generate high‐salt, organic‐rich effluents, but also negatively impact the structural and functional properties of the recovered copolymer, while wasting the yeast protein fraction, which is discarded.

Abstract Agro‐industrial by‐products can be used as valuable nutrient sources for the sustainable production of high‐value‐added compounds. The goal of this study was utilize raw citrus industrial by‐product (RCB) as a carbon source for the simultaneous production of red colorants and enzymes by the filamentous fungus Talaromyces amestolkiae under lab ...

Clinical and Physiological Perspectives of β-Glucans: The Past, Present, and Future
β-Glucans are a group of biologically-active fibers or polysaccharides from natural sources with proven medical significance. β-Glucans are known to have antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, anti-allergic, anti-osteoporotic, and immunomodulating ...

Anti-infectious and Anti-tumor Activities of β-glucans
Background/Aim: The aim of this study was to directly compare the anti-infectious and anti-cancer effects of five commercially available glucans. Materials and Methods: We used five different glucans isolated from algae, yeast, bacteria, oat, and ...

Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...
