  1. 1. Nutritional and physicochemical characterisation of dietary fibre in wheat fractions

    Författare :Lina Haskå; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dietary fibre; fructan; arabinoxylan; wheat; distillers grains; short-chain fatty acids; microbiota;

    Sammanfattning : Dietary fibre is fermented in the colon to short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), of which especially butyric and propionic acid may have health-promoting effects. One source of dietary fibre may be by-products from wheat, which are currently used as animal feed. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Carbohydrate Levels and Fructan Metabolism in Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Leaves : effects of manipulating mineral nutrition and photosynthesis

    Författare :Changwen Wang; Björn Thorsteinsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Sammanfattning : Carbohydrate levels and fructan metabolism were studied in the leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Agneta) plants subjected to phosphorous (P)-deficiency, nitrogen (N)-deficiency and N-resupply following the N-deficiency. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Novel starch types : molecular diversity for future applications

    Författare :Shishanthi Jayarathna; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigated molecular changes in potato starch achieved through targeted mutations in the starch synthesis pathway. CRISPR/Cas9 was used to induce mutations in starch branching enzyme genes (SBE), with or without mutations in granule bound starch synthase gene (GBSS). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Characterisation of dietary fibre in cereal grains and products : emphasis on triticale and rye

    Författare :Allah Rakha; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Utility of cereals is mainly defined by their composition. High content of extractable dietary fibre (DF) with retained molecular features may be desired for human consumption to derive certain benefits associated with DF. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Interactions between dietary chicory, gut microbiota and immune responses

    Författare :Haoyu Liu; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis provides a better understanding of interactions between diet, gut microbiota, and immune responses to a specific dietary fiber source, chicory (Cichorium intybus L). This was achieved by examining the impact of chicory fiber on animal performance, digestibility, gut development, commensal bacteria community structure in small and large intestine, and follow-up reactions with specific immune components, cytoprotective heat shock protein (HSP) 27 and 72, in vivo and in vitro.
