Most dominant roles of insect gut bacteria: digestion, detoxification, or essential nutrient provision?

Microbiome, 2020
The insect gut microbiota has been shown to contribute to the host’s digestion, detoxification, development, pathogen resistance, and physiology. However, there is poor information about the ranking of these roles.

A standardised static in vitro digestion method suitable for food - an international consensus.

Food & Function, 2014
Simulated gastro-intestinal digestion is widely employed in many fields of food and nutritional sciences, as conducting human trials are often costly, resource intensive, and ethically disputable.

How processing may affect milk protein digestion and overall physiological outcomes: A systematic review

Critical reviews in food science and nutrition, 2020
Dairy is one of the main sources for high quality protein in the human diet. Processing may, however, cause denaturation, aggregation, and chemical modifications of its amino acids, which may impact protein quality.

A Review on Anaerobic Co-Digestion with a Focus on the Microbial Populations and the Effect of Multi-Stage Digester Configuration

Energies, 2019
Recent studies have shown that anaerobic co-digestion (AnCoD) is superior to conventional anaerobic digestion (AD). The benefits of enhanced bioenergy production and solids reduction using co-substrates have attracted researchers to study the co ...
