Changes in dry matter and water-soluble carbohydrate components, especially fructan, were examined in the basal 25 mm of expanding leaf blades of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) to assess their roles in plant response to water deficit. Water was withheld from vegetative plants grown in soil in controlled-environment chambers. As stress progressed, leaf elongation rate decreased sooner...

OBJECTIVE Current guidelines for intensive treatment of type 1 diabetes base the mealtime insulin bolus calculation exclusively on carbohydrate counting. There is strong evidence that free fatty acids impair insulin sensitivity. We hypothesized that patients with type 1 diabetes would require more insulin coverage for higher-fat meals than lower-fat meals with identical carbohydrate content. ...

The influence of harvesting date on some physicochemical properties of nectarine (Prunus persica var. Red gold) fruit including fruit weight, pigment content, total carbohydrate, total phenol and antioxidant activity were studied. Fruits were harvested in four different stages; a) two weeks after fruit set, b) pit hardening, c) three weeks after pit hardening and 6 weeks after pit hardening. Re...

Nucleotide-activated sugars are essential substrates for plant cell-wall carbohydrate-polymer biosynthesis. The most prevalent grass cell wall (CW) sugars are glucose (Glc), xylose (Xyl), and arabinose (Ara). These sugars are biosynthetically related via the UDP-sugar interconversion pathway. We sought to target and generate UDP-sugar interconversion pathway transgenic Brachypodium distachyon l...

Two replicate experiments were done to investigate if special diets provided to broilers in their last phase of life could reduce the negative effects of feed withdrawal and transport without an increased content of the digestive tract. In each experiment, 240 broilers were used. The experiments consisted of 2 interventions: the feed intervention and the transport intervention. The feed interve...

Differences in water relations and total carbohydrate content between precommercially thinned unthinned Pinus nigra subsp. pallasiana stands | Ayşe Deligöz, Esra Bayar, Musa Genç, Yasin Karatepe Agricultural Journals

The purpose of the study was to compare nutritional composition [carbohydrate, protein, moisture content, fat, ash, sugar, crude fiber] four yard long bean cultivars in Bangladesh between 2020 and 21. Consumption foods high value offers a variety anti-diabetic, anti-heart disease, anti-cancer effects. were different proximate composition, evaluated had an energy content 45.86 37.21 Kcal/100 g, ...

micro flora of the effluents from a dairy factory in tehran(pegah dairy processing plant) were isolated and screened for their ability to reduce the organic matter content and cod of the effluents. 10 bacteria were selected due to  reduction in cod content from the 4th to 6th day of incubation at 30 °c and  ph =11. highest cod reduction were obtained by two isolates, bp3 and bp4, 70.7 % and 69....
