ABSTRACT Background and Objective To ensure provision of essential micronutrients to at‐risk maize‐consuming populations, their stability in stored fortified whole‐grain maize meal (FWGMM) is essential. Vitamin stability in commercial FWGMM was studied over 6 months under two real‐world tropical conditions (overall average 25.3°C, 53.5% relative ...

The use of alternative proteins ingredients is needed to support aquaculture. Yeast cells, a single cell protein ingredient, can be successfully incorporated into Atlantic salmon diets without affecting growth performance. ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are globally cultured fish that are typically fed high protein and high lipid diets ...

Diglycerides of Natural Phenols and Organic Acids for Enhanced Biological Activities
Diglycerides of natural organic acids and phenols were synthesized regio‐selectively. Diglycerides are structurally similar to cell membranes and are expected to exhibit cell affinity and permeability. The flexible glycerol linkers allow the diglycerides to exhibit not only the physiological activities of each constituent organic acid but also the ...

This study evaluated the effect of soluble dietary fiber from Ganoderma sinense on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by establishing in vitro cell and in vivo mouse models. Ganoderma sinense soluble dietary fiber (GSSDF) alleviates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by regulating lipid metabolism and reducing oxidative stress.

Impact of Adipose Tissue and Lipids on Skeletal Muscle in Sarcopenia
ABSTRACT Background Although the decline in muscle mass, function and increased visceral obesity are attracting substantial attention in the ageing society, approved treatment modalities for sarcopenia/sarcopenic obesity (SO) remain limited. Elucidating effects and mechanisms of adipose tissue and lipids on skeletal muscle is important for identifying ...

Genetics and the diet attenuate ocular lipofuscin production and accumulation and improves visual and RPE function in Abca4−/− mice. Abca4−/− mice supplemented with β‐carotene (BC) diet showed an increase in BC concentrations and retinoic acid metabolites in the liver, which led to an induction of hepatic Rbpr2 gene activity via RAR and RXR regulatory ...
