Plasma concentrations of glucose and insulin following a meal were compared in twelve Thoroughbred mares fed a pelleted concentrate (PC), a traditional sweet feed high in sugar and starch (SS), or a feed high in fat and fiber (FF). The feeds had similar DE and CP but differed in fat (19, 32, and 166 g/kg DM, respectively), NDF (199, 185, and 369 g/kg DM, respectively) and nonstructural carbohyd...

Abstract Excessive consumption of added sugar is associated with many health problems, for example obesity, type 2 diabetes, etc. Hence there an urgent need the product reformulation by total replacement or partial reduction in food industry. The aim this research was to study effect substitution (by stevia and xylitol) on model confectionary systems. We investigated differences texture propert...

The aim of the present work was to study physicochemical, textural and sensory properties biscuits prepared by replacing sucrose with rare sugar (D-psicose) and/or polyols (sorbitol, xylitol) at 25% or 50%. results showed that increasing D-psicose replacement resulted in lower moisture content, darker less yellow, thicker biscuits. However, opposite effects were observed polyol substitute textu...

Binding proteins, which are themselves non-enzymatic, play an important role in enzymatic reactions as well as non-enzymatic processes by providing a binding platform for the specific recognition of particular molecules. For example, periplasmic binding proteins play a vital role in nutrient uptake in Gram-negative bacteria. In the present study, three sugar binding proteins, including two peri...

The effect of crystal size on VHP sugar colour was evaluated on a factory scale over the 1988/89 season at Sezela. Generally, smaller crystals produced lower sugar colour but the difference wasnot significant (at the 5% level) in the size range tested. Smallercrystals producedloweraffinated sugarcolourand the difference was significant at the 5% level. The mass of sugar in a full rail truck was...

concomitant coronary artery bypass surgery (cabg) in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement (mvr) has been shown to be an important risk factor for hospital mortality. we evaluated preoperative characteristics, postoperative complications, in-hospital mortality rate, and length of stay in hospital for patients undergoing concurrent cabg with mvr. preoperative and postoperative clinical da...

objective: many agronomic practices may need to be adjusted to maximize yield and quality of sugar beet. thus agronomic package must be always modified. this sutdy was laid out for evaluation of changes in carbohydrates and sugar yield in sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) under different biofertilizers and irrigation closed time at dorud region of iran, during 2013. methods: the experimental design...

Steamconditioning (desuperheating) is an essential and critical part of sugar production, particularly with reference to the processing of expressed juice where criticalsteamtemperatures are most necessary to ensurefinal quality. Desuperheating is a simpleprocess that is not widely understood in principle and is much abusedin its practical application and operation. The purposeof this paper is ...
