Caecal bacterial composition of broiler chickens affected by porang glucomannan
Glucomannan is consisted of D-glucose and D-mannose with β-1.4 linkages. Poultry had no enzyme to digest β linkage so that porang (Amorphophallus onchophyllus) glucomannan could be a prebiotic candidate.

Well-known as a food additive, glucomannan has excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability properties. However, glucomannan is easily gelled, which limited its use in high concentration. To reduce the gel formation ability of glucomannan, acetylation

Atypical endo-β-1,4-mannanases are necessary for normal glucomannan synthesis in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
The molecular mechanisms underlying the synthesis of large cell wall polysaccharides in plant cells are not fully understood. Here we report that two atypical endo-β-1,4-mannanases (MANs), which are not secreted and do not degrade glucomannan in the cell

Enzymatic purification of glucomannan from Amorphophallus oncophyllus using α-Amylase
The international standards for top glucomannan flour require a minimum of 70% glucomannan. The glucomannan content of Amorphophallus oncophyllus flour was approximately 60%, with starch as the major impurity.

A novel global hydrodynamic analysis of the molecular flexibility of the dietary fibre polysaccharide konjac glucomannan [PDF]
Konjac glucomannans have been widely considered in health food products although their hydrodynamic properties have been poorly understood. The weight-average molecular weight (Mw); sedimentation coefficient (s020,w) and intrinsic viscosities ([η]) have
