Optimization of Spray-Drying Process of Jerusalem artichoke Extract for Inulin Production
Molecules, 2019 Jerusalem artichoke is an important natural matrix for inulin production. In this experiment, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize the spray-drying parameters in order to determine the maximal inulin yield.

Chicory roots improves the taste and odour of organic pork [PDF]
, 2005 The carbohydrate inulin is known to reduce the production of skatole in pigs. This is caused by inulin changing the intestinal flora, so that the bacteria that produce skatole are held in check.

Heat-induced degradation of inulin [PDF]
European Food Research and Technology, 2004 Abstract: Heat treatment of inulin at 135 to 190°C leads to a decrease in the measurable amount of the fructan, when quantified as fructose after enzymatic hydrolysis. Using high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection, degradation of the fructan chains and concomitant formation of low-molecular products was ...

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to
