Studies on the structure and elicitor activity of fungal glucans
Neutral sugar compositions of materials released from isolated mycelial walls of race 1 and race 2 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense were similar (5% ribose, 52% mannose, 28% galactose, 15% glucose).

Dehulling combined with twin‐screw extrusion improves the nutritional and functional properties of steam treated navy beans. Protein digestibility increases while phytic acid is reduced by 43% and trypsin inhibitors are inactivated. Enhanced expansion, solubility, and sensory quality highlight the potential of dehulled bean flours for developing ...

Histochemical determination β-glucans in barley grains [PDF]
Barley is one of the oldest cultivated cereals in the world and is classified as a botanical member of the grass family (Poaceae). The primary structural components in the cell wall interiors of the starchy endosperm are (1→3), (1→4)-β-D-β-glucans.

β-Glucans: Multi-Functional Modulator of Wound Healing
β-glucans are derived from a variety of sources including yeast, grain and fungus and belong to the class of drugs known as biological response modifiers. They possess a broad spectrum of biological activities that enhance immunity in humans.

b-Glucans, as biologically active polysaccharides, have been used for decades but only recently have become a focus of evolutionary studies. As b-glucans are shown to be active in all animal species studied - from earthworms to humans - we can safely conclude that b-glucan immunostimulation is one of the first defensive mechanisms active across the ...

Cost‐Effective Solid‐State NMR Of Fungal Glucans: A Case Study On Schizosaccharomyces pombe
A cost‐effective solid‐state NMR strategy enables replication and semi‐quantitative assessment of inherent variation of the fungal cell wall. Whole cell and cell wall extractions yield subtly different compositional differences, revealing molecular adaptations invisible to microscopy.

Phosphorylase-mediated dynamic combinatorial chemistry with linear α-1,4-glucans
In this thesis, phosphorylase-mediated dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) is presented as an approach for the selective synthesis of linear α-1,4-glucans (Figure 1).

Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...

Healthy snacks formulated with food by‐products are gaining interest within the food industry. Decoction residues of Hibiscus sabdariffa (roselle) retain thermostable polyphenols. Extruded snacks enriched with roselle showed a reduction in the expansion index as the roselle concentration increased.
