Examination of Dietary Patterns and FODMAPs Intake in Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome [PDF]
, 2020 Background: There is growing evidence that supports the efficacy of a diet low in fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAPs) for symptom management in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The influence of habitual dietary intake on the responsiveness of the gut microbiota to a dietary intervention : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Nutritional Science at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Preliminary evidence suggests that inter-individual variability in gut microbiota response to a dietary intervention is influenced by baseline gut microbiota composition.

Effect of feeding fermentable fibrerich feedstuffs lupin and chicory prior to slaughter with special emphasis on the effect on chemical boar taint in organic entire male and female pigs and technological meat quality [PDF]
, 2007 Boar taint is an off-flavour of pork caused primarily by skatole and, androstenone. Pig off-odour and flavour mostly caused by higher skatole concentrations in backfat.

Purification, cloning and functional characterization of a fructan 6-exohydrolase from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]
, 2017 Fructans, β2-1 and/or β2-6 linked polymers of fructose, are produced by fructosyltransferases (FTs) from sucrose. They are important storage carbohydrates in many plants.

Towards a better understanding of the generation of fructan structure diversity in plants: molecular and functional characterization of a sucrose:fructan 6-fructosyltransferase (6-SFT) cDNA from perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) [PDF]
, 2017 The main storage compounds in Lolium perenne are fructans with prevailing β(2-6) linkages. A cDNA library of L. perenne was screened using Poa secunda sucrose:fructan 6-fructosyltransferase (6-SFT) as a probe.

MicroorganismsDuring raw sugarcane processing, a significant portion of lost sucrose is attributable to microbial degradation. Sucrose consumption by many bacteria is also linked to the production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) such as dextrans and fructans.

Prevention and treatment of parasitic infections in organic pigs [PDF]
, 2007 Organic and free range pigs are potentially exposed to a wider range of parasites and zoonotic challenges. The livestock Subproject QLIF addresses 4 strategies to combat these challenges, and the present paper describes the initial results.

Using Natural Variation to Investigate the Function of Individual Amino Acids in the Sucrose-Binding Box of Fructan:Fructan 6G-Fructosyltransferase (6G-FFT) in Product Formation [PDF]
, 2018 Enzymes of the glycosyl hydrolase family 32 are highly similar with respect to primary sequence but catalyze divergent reactions. Previously, the importance of the conserved sucrose-binding box in determining product specificity of onion fructan:fructan ...
