Carbohydrates [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2014
Although carbohydrates represent one of the most important families of biomolecules, they remain under-studied in comparison to the other biomolecular families (peptides, nucleobases). Beyond their best-known function of energy source in living systems, they act as mediator of molecular recognition processes, carrying molecular information in the so ...

A nutrigenetic approach to investigate the relationship between metabolic traits and vitamin D status in an Asian Indian population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Studies in Asian Indians have examined the association of metabolic traits with vitamin D status. However, findings have been quite inconsistent. Hence, we aimed to explore the relationship between metabolic traits and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D ...

Maximizing efficiency of rumen microbial protein production. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rumen microbes produce cellular protein inefficiently partly because they do not direct all ATP toward growth. They direct some ATP toward maintenance functions, as long-recognized, but they also direct ATP toward reserve carbohydrate synthesis and ...

Mutational analysis of the carbohydrate binding activity of the tobacco lectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
At present the three-dimensional structure of the tobacco lectin, further referred to as Nictaba, and its carbohydrate-binding site are unresolved. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional model for the Nictaba domain based on the homology between ...

Systematic Hydrogen‐Bond Manipulations To Establish Polysaccharide Structure–Property Correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A dense hydrogen‐bond network is responsible for the mechanical and structural properties of polysaccharides. Random derivatization alters the properties of the bulk material by disrupting the hydrogen bonds, but obstructs detailed structure–function ...

Carbohydrate bioavailability [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Nutrition, 2005
There is consensus that carbohydrate foods, in the form of fruit, vegetables and whole-grain products, are beneficial to health. However, there are strong indications that highly processed, fibre-depleted, and consequently rapidly digestible, energy-dense carbohydrate food products can lead to over-consumption and obesity-related diseases.

Effects of Diet Composition and Insulin Resistance Status on Plasma Lipid Levels in a Weight Loss Intervention in Women. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundOptimal macronutrient distribution of weight loss diets has not been established. The distribution of energy from carbohydrate and fat has been observed to promote differential plasma lipid responses in previous weight loss studies, and insulin

Crystals in hard candies

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2003
The main purpose of the contribution presented here is the study of the glassy state and the presence of crystals in hard candies. Hard candies are non-chocolate sweets usually made of sucrose and glucose or of maltose syrup.

The effect of carbohydrate ingestion on the Interleukin-6 response to a 90-minute run time trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Fatigue is a predictable outcome of prolonged physical activity; yet its biological cause remains uncertain. During exercise, a polypeptide messenger molecule interleukin- 6 (IL-6) is actively produced.
