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 ...

Impact of pulsed light treatments and storage time on the texture quality of fresh-cut tomatoes [PDF]

, 2018
The effect of pulsed light (PL) treatments at fluences of 4, 6 or 8 J·cm-2 on microbial growth, weight loss, pectinmethyl esterase (PME) and polygalacturonase (PG) activities of fresh-cut tomatoes was evaluated through 20 days of storage at 5 ºC ...

Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Preparation of Pectin Aerogels From Flaxseed and Evaluation of Their Potential as Hemostatic Agents: Water Absorption Characteristics

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flaxseed has been used extensively to extract flaxseed oil and drugs used for breast cancer treatment. Flaxseed contains a considerable amount of pectin in addition. We extracted pectin from flaxseed and prepared pectin aerogels by the steps of de‐esterification, gelation, solvent exchange and supercritical CO2 drying.

Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.

Evaluation of a Product Intended for Microbiological Control in Animal Production, and Its Combination With Halquinol

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Activo Liquid and Halquinol inhibit Salmonella and Escherichia coli in culture media. Activo Liquid exhibits bactericidal action, whereas HA is bacteriostatic, and their combination results in positive or indifferent interactions. This combination effectively inhibits E. coli throughout digestion simulation, thus reducing the required concentrations of
