Dietary Fiber Pectin Ameliorates Experimental Colitis in a Neutral Sugar Side Chain-Dependent Manner

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Dietary fiber, with intake of soluble fibers in particular, has been reported to lower the risk for developing inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). This is at least partly attributable to the fermentation of dietary fiber by the colonic microbiota to ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Differences in physicochemical properties of pectin extracted from pomelo peel with different extraction techniques

Scientific Reports
In order to obtain high yield pomelo peel pectin with better physicochemical properties, four pectin extraction methods, including hot acid extraction (HAE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), ultrasound-assisted extraction, and enzymatic assisted ...

Bioinspired Ultrastrong and Ion‐Selective Gel Electrolytes by Interfacial Coacervation for High‐Performance Lithium‐Metal Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
An ultrastrong, hierarchically nanoporous gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) was fabricated via poly(ionic liquid)‐induced interfacial coacervation of cellulose nanofibrils. Its cascade ion‐conduction network enables dual‐mode Li⁺ transport via nanoconfinement and interstitial hopping. The GPE enables stable cycling of high mass loading battery (LiFePO₄, 16

Spouted bed drying parameters and adjuvant effects on polyphenol retention and antioxidant activity in mango peel powders

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Spouted bed drying of mango peels with colloidal SiO2 and corn starch produces a free‐flowing powder with reduced agglomeration, increased drying yield, and preserved antioxidant and polyphenol content. Abstract The production of polyphenol‐rich powders is a promising strategy for valorizing agro‐industrial byproducts. This study evaluated drying yield,

Enhancement of developmental defects in the boron‐deficient maize mutant tassel‐less1 by reduced auxin levels

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

Cerium Binding Activity of Pectins Isolated from the Seagrasses Zostera marina and Phyllospadix iwatensis

Marine Drugs, 2012
Cerium binding activity of three different water soluble pectin compounds of different origin was studied in a batch sorption system. The Langmuir, Freundlich and BET sorption models were adopted to describe the binding reactions between metal ions and ...

Rheological and Textural Properties of Clean‐Label 3D‐Printed Traditional Thai Dessert

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop a clean‐label 3D‐printable food ink using a formulation based on Khanom Piak Poon, a traditional Thai dessert, enriched with carrot powder (CP) for enhanced nutritional value. Unlike conventional food printing inks that contain additive hydrocolloids, this ink relies on the natural reactions between starch, sugar ...
