Prebiotic Bimuno® GOS reduces illness symptoms and supports gut barrier function and immunity after intermittent exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in hot climates increases the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) disruption and respiratory illness. We investigated the effects of a 42 day prebiotic intervention on markers of intestinal epithelial injury, GI discomfort and immunity following football specific exercise in the heat and daily upper respiratory illness.

Characteristics of a Latent Potyvirus Seedborne in Guar and of Guar Green-Sterile Virus [PDF]

Plant Disease, 1998
A symptomless, seedborne potyvirus was isolated from guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) germ plasm in Griffin, Georgia. The host range and serology were similar to those reported for guar green-sterile virus (GGSV) and guar symptomless virus. Biological, serological, and molecular comparisons of the Georgia isolate and the South African GGSV indicate they

Starch Selection in Sweet Food Systems: A Texture‐Driven Framework Across Confectionery and Dessert Matrices

Journal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Starch functions as a key hydrocolloid shaping texture and stability in the formulation engineering of sweet foods. Sugar‐starch hydration interactions control gelatinization and rheological behavior. Modified starches enhance tolerance to heat, shear, acidity, and low moisture, and starch‐hydrocolloid blends enable tailored textures and improved shelf

Bile Acid Metabolism as a Unifying Readout for Diet, Microbiome Function, and Gastrointestinal Disease

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Dietary components shape the gut microbiome, which modifies bile acids through transformations. The resulting bile acid pool is sensed by host receptors to regulate immunity, metabolism, and intestinal function. Targeted bile acid measurements provide a unifying readout to study diet‐microbiome interactions and to develop next‐generation dietary ...

Determining the Nutritional Potential of Ancient Wheat Species: A Closer Look at Starch and Protein Digestibility, and Phenolic Acid Content

Cereal Chemistry, Volume 103, Issue 5, Page 669-680, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives The recent trend towards healthy food choices and sustainable agriculture has revived interest in underutilized wheat species such as emmer, einkorn, and spelt. Given these developments, the objective of the study was to compare the differences in chemical composition and digestibility characteristics among ...

Identification of guar [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.] genotypes with wider adaptability to rainfed environments through stability analysis

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding
The stability and yield of guar genotypes are important factors for the long-term development of this gum-producing industrial crop. A study was undertaken to assess the impact of the G × E interaction on yield stability in guar genotypes at seven ...

Chemical and physical characterization of guar galactomannan extracted from guar seeds

, 2022
Guar is becoming a highly valuable crop for West Texas due to its drought tolerance and potential use in hydraulic fracturing in shale gas and oil harvesting. Guar gum is chemically known as galactomannan, a heteropolysaccharide of galactose and mannose.
