Effect of the Carbohydrate Composition of feed Concentratates on Methane Emission from dairy Cows and Their Slurry [PDF]
, 2018 Dietary carbohydrate effects on methane emission from cows and their slurry were measured on an individual animal basis. Twelve dairy cows were fed three of six diets each (n = 6 per diet) of a forage-to-concentrate ratio of 1:1 (dry matter basis), and ...

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 ...

A soluble garlic polysaccharide supplement alleviates fatigue in mice
npj Science of FoodGarlic polysaccharide (GP) is an inulin-type fructan with potent antioxidant activity, whereas its health-promoting functions are not well explored. In the current study, we established a fatigue model by forcing mice to swim in a water tank for at least
