Effects of short chain fatty acids on seedlings

Plant, Cell and Environment, 1982
Abstract. Primary roots of lettuce show no appreciable diminution of sensitivity of SCFA between 24 and 72 h, so it is likely that all actively growing primary roots are susceptible to inhibition by SCFA. While roots do not recover from long exposures to high concentrations of SCFA, partial recovery is seen following exposure to intermediate levels.

Transport of Short Chain Fatty Acids

1974
The present interest in the mechanisms involved in intestinal transport of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) derives from the experiments of Smyth and Taylor [1,2] which showed that compounds of this type were transported against gradients of concentration from luminal to serosal sides of rat intestine incubated in vitro.

Colonic Health: Fermentation and Short Chain Fatty Acids

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2006
Interest has been recently rekindled in short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) with the emergence of prebiotics and probiotics aimed at improving colonic and systemic health. Dietary carbohydrates, specifically resistant starches and dietary fiber, are substrates for fermentation that produce SCFAs, primarily acetate, propionate, and butyrate, as end products.

Short Chain Fatty Acids

1997
Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) are produced in the human colon by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates and amino acids. The physiological importance of these molecules is increasingly recognised. They have been shown to influence cellular turnover not only in the colon, where they are formed, but also at distant sites in the small intestine (Sakata ...

Short‐Chain Fatty Acids: Ready for Prime Time?

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, 2006
The concept of colonic health has become a major target for the development of functional foods such as probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics. These bioactive agents have a profound effect on the composition of the microflora, as well as on the physiology of the colon, and display distinct health benefits.

Effects of Short-Chain Fatty Acids on Gastrointestinal Motility

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1997
Besides their action on gut morphology and function, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), produced by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates in the colon, influence gastrointestinal motility. As they are not present in the stomach and proximal small intestine, SCFAs do not directly affect motility of these segments.

Desiccant Activity of Short Chain Fatty Acids

Weed Technology, 2006
In an effort to find safe natural products to function in traditional agricultural chemical roles, short-chain fatty acids were evaluated as desiccants for dry beans. Desiccation was evaluated in greenhouse studies on three dry bean cultivars: ‘Montcalm’ kidney, ‘Midnight’ black turtle, and ‘Vista’ navy bean. Caprylic (C8) and pelargonic acid (C9) were

[Research progression of short chain fatty acid].

Zhonghua wei chang wai ke za zhi = Chinese journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2016
With the development of intestinal flora, short chain fatty acid(SCFA), produced by the intestinal microbiota, has been found to be important for the host. It also plays an important role in the part of the occurrence and development of some diseases.

Short chain fatty acids and colonic health.

Bratislavske lekarske listy, 2008
Recently, colonic health has been linked to the maintaining overall health status and reducing the risk of diseases by changes in lifestyle. Functional foods, such as "prebiotics" and "probiotics", dietary fibers, and other dietary components that target the colon and affect its environment enhancing short fatty acid (SCFA) production have been at the ...
