Synergistic Benefits of Butyric Acid and Resistant Potato Starch on Growth and Gut Health in Weaned Pigs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Newly‐weaned piglets face challenges such as reduced feed intake, impaired gut function, and susceptibility to post‐weaning diarrhoea, increasing the need for dietary strategies that support gut health and growth. This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with butyric acid (BA), resistant potato starch (PS), and their ...

Muscle Protein Synthesis in Response to Plant-Based Protein Isolates With and Without Added Leucine Versus Whey Protein in Young Men and Women

Current Developments in Nutrition
Background: Plant-based protein supplements often contain lower amounts of leucine and other essential amino acids (EAAs), potentially making them less effective in stimulating muscle protein synthesis (MPS) than animal-based proteins.

Mixed gels from whey protein isolate and cellulose microfibrils

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2019
Whey proteins can form different gel structures ranging from fine-stranded to particulate when appropriate conditions are applied. By incorporating polysaccharides, the gelation of WPI can be influenced. We investigated the heat-induced gelation of whey protein isolate (WPI) in the presence of bacterial cellulose (BC) microfibrils at pH 7 at different ...

Nanoparticles in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry: From Mechanisms to Clinical Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Nanotechnology holds significant promise in improving dental care, yet there is a need for more reliable clinical studies to validate its effectiveness and safety. ABSTRACT Recent advances in nanotechnology are reshaping the landscape of periodontology and implant dentistry, particularly through the application of nanoparticles (NPs).

Microgravity‐induced changes in skeletal muscle and possible countermeasures: What we can learn from bed rest and human space studies

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite exercise countermeasures to sustain health and performance in spaceflight, complete maintenance of muscle mass and functions in microgravity is still not possible for most astronauts. The principal cause of the limited effectiveness of existing exercise countermeasures is the difficulty in achieving full loading forces in space.

Plant‐protein supplementation improves thermoregulatory responses and ameliorates markers of intestinal damage during exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in the heat often causes gastrointestinal (GI) disturbances, which can impair performance. Single amino acid supplementation can attenuate gut damage and enhance exercise tolerance; however, the effectiveness of innate amino acid blends from plant‐based proteins remains underexplored.

Effects of moderate electric fields on aggregation of whey protein solutions and properties of edible films made thereof [PDF]

, 2013
Thermal processing may result in disruption of the native conformation of whey proteins, thus affecting their structure and functional properties. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of moderate electric fields on thermal aggregation of whey

Cheese whey processing: integrated biorefinery concepts and emerging food applications [PDF]

, 2019
Cheese whey constitutes one of the most polluting by-products of the food industry, due to its high organic load. Thus, in order to mitigate the environmental concerns, a large number of valorization approaches have been reported; mainly targeting the ...
