21. The role of whole grains and lignans in lifestyle diseases : emphasis on prostate cancer and type 2 diabetes and their risk factors
Sammanfattning : Whole grains are rich in dietary fibre and bioactive compounds and have consistently been associated to improved health and lower mortality. Whole-grain rye is rich in fermentable fibre and lignans, that are converted to enterodiol and enterolactone by the gut microbiota. LÄS MER
22. Residues from biochemical production of transport biofuels in Northern Europe : combustion properties and applications
Sammanfattning : Residues from biochemical production of liquid transport biofuels will probably become available for energy use if more gasoline and diesel is substituted. For processes used in northern Europe they amount to 35-65 % of the feedstock energy and despite interest from energy companies, their fuel properties are largely unknown. LÄS MER
23. Satiating effects of rye foods
Sammanfattning : The satiating capacity of foods and meals is affected by caloric content, but also varies with several aspects of food composition (e.g. macronutrient composition, energy density, fibre content and food structure). Rye is a cereal that possesses interesting characteristics with the potential to increase satiety. LÄS MER
24. New alkylresorcinol metabolites : identification, quantification and evaluation as dietary biomarkers
Sammanfattning : Alkylresorcinols (AR) are amphiphilic phenolic lipids that are extensively metabolized in the liver and form metabolites that can be detected in plasma and urine. Two AR metabolites, 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA) and 3-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-propanoic acid (DHPPA), have been evaluated as urinary biomarkers of whole grain wheat and rye intake. LÄS MER
25. Nutrient economy in annual and perennial crops : comparisons between and within crop species in a sustainability context
Sammanfattning : Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of agricultural crops is related to crop nitrogen (N) uptake and thereby the amount of N that is removed from agro-ecosystems through crop harvest. As the N removal through harvest is linked to the fertilization requirements and the risk of N leaching, the crop NUE is an important aspect of sustainability in agriculture. LÄS MER
