Delgado-Andrade C., Rufián-Henares J. A., Morales F. J. (2008): Optimised procedure to analyse Maillard reaction-associated fluorescence in cereal-based products. Czech J. Food Sci., 26: 339–346. Fluorescent Maillard compounds measurement provides more specific information on the extent of the Maillard reaction than other unspecific tools to monitor the reaction, and is suitable, as the first a...

Cereal endosperm is a highly differentiated tissue containing specialized organelles for the accumulation of storage proteins, which are ultimately deposited either within protein bodies derived from the endoplasmic reticulum, or in protein storage vacuoles (PSVs). During seed maturation endosperm cells undergo a rapid sequence of developmental changes, including extensive reorganization and re...

There is limited evidence in Australia that compares the nutritional impact of a breakfast cereal breakfast to a non-cereal breakfast, and includes the type of cereal. This study investigated the impact of breakfast choice and the total sugar content of breakfast cereal on nutrient intakes and anthropometric measures among Australian children and adolescents. Data from 2 to 18-year-old in the 2...

We used an indirect immunofluorescence technique, using rabbit antisera against cereal protein extracts, to determine which cereal proteins bind to reticulin in tissue sections and which do not. Wheat albumin extracts and globulins and gliadin extracts from a range of different wheat varieties, and prolamine extracts of barley and rye each bound to reticulin in vitro, while prolamine extracts o...

Cereal crops that have rigid non-cellulose components in the cell wall tissues of leaves and high starch and protein content in grains face limitations in DNA extraction. Advanced molecular genetic techniques such as mapping and marker-assisted selection programs require pure and quick DNA extraction. In this study, we developed methods for isolating high-quality genomic DNA from leaves and see...

Aging is accompanied by changes in gastrointestinal functions. The impact of the (GI) conditions elderly on extent proteolysis and glycolysis as well calcium bioaccessibility some cooked legumes (chickpea, lentils, soya bean white bean) cereals/pseudocereals (oats, spelt quinoa) were studied. Samples digested vitro using three GI models specifically focused which oral, gastric intestinal altere...

The predator and parasitoid fauna associated with cereal aphids is described, emphasizing the fauna associated with classical biological control efforts against the greenbug and Russian wheat aphid. We focus on literature from North America and include work from Europe and elsewhere when it is desirable to draw contrasts between approaches that affect cereal aphid biological control. Effects on...

Sodium salinity negatively affects and reduces yields in international agricultural systems. This stress decreases crop growth development, causing tissue death, flowering abortion, senescence of the fertilized embryo, enzymatic activity, protein synthesis, among other processes. Rice is a cereal great demand for its nutritional properties productivity affected by presence salts surfaces. The o...

Oats (Avena sativa L.) are a popular functional cereal grain due to their numerous health benefits. This review article summarized the information on chemical composition and phytonutrients of oats grown in different countries. It also reviewed recently developed fermented oat products highlight potential for human health. have an interesting nutritional profile that includes high-quality prote...
