3. Development of High-Protein Oat for the Feed and Food Industry
Sammanfattning : Oats are an excellent source of high-quality proteins, with a favourable amino acid composition. Oat proteins therefore have greatpotential to complement existing animal and plant protein sources, especially if the protein content could be increased. In this thesis,high-protein oat lines were identified and characterised. LÄS MER
4. Barley malt products for improved intestinal health
Sammanfattning : Barley is a good source of dietary fibre, particularly β-glucan and arabinoxylan, to increase formation of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Butyric and propionic acid are involved in the preservation of colonic barrier function, thus decreasing the risk of inflammation. LÄS MER
