Foods that contain unavailable carbohydrates may lower the risks for some non-transmissible chronic diseases because of the potential benefits provided by the products of colonic fermentation. On the other hand, foods that ...

The biogenesis of the plant mitochondrial respiratory chain needs the coordinated synthesis and assembly of the products of more than 100 genes located in the nucleus and within the organelle. One of the factors that ...

Chemical thinning of apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) has been practised for 50 years but it remains an unpredictable part of apple production with large variations from year to year and within years. Carbohydrate availability ...

Lectin-carbohydrate interactions are responsible for several cellular processes involved in the immune system and the development of certain types of cancer. To further understanding of the cellular responses triggered by ...

During exercise, an adequate supply of substrates is required for the continuing resynthesis of ATP in working muscles. Muscle fibers have limited stores of creatine phosphate, glycogen, and triglycerides and so must also ...

A highly sensitive non-enzymatic carbohydrates sensor based on a nickel hydroxide film on a nickel alloy electrode was developed. The electro-catalytic film is formed by using a potential scan program developed in our ...

Introduction: Exercise performed at the hypoxia equivalent of an altitude of 4200 m is associated with elevated inflammatory mediators and changes in the Th1/Th2 response. By contrast, supplementation with carbohydrates ...

The role of abscisic acid (ABA) was analyzed in roots and leaves of the halophyte Prosopis strombulifera in response to low osmotic potential (Ψo: −1.0, −1.9, and −2.6 MPa) induced by sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium sulfate ...
