Screening and Application of Novel Homofermentative Lactic Acid Bacteria Results in Low-FODMAP Whole-Wheat Bread

open access: yesFermentation, 2023
FODMAPs are fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides, and polyols. The application of homofermentative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been investigated as a promising approach for producing low-FODMAP whole-wheat bread. The low-FODMAP diet is recommended

Fructan and hormone connections [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Plants rely on “reserve” (stored) carbon (C) for growth and survival when newly synthesized C becomes limited. Besides a classic yet recalcitrant C reserve starch, fructans, a class of sucrose-derived soluble fructosyl-oligosaccharides, represent a major store of C in many temperate plant species including the economically important Asteraceae and ...
