The water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) glucose, fructose, and sucrose are well-known to the great public, but fructans represent another type of WSC that deserves more attention given their prebiotic and immunomodulatory properties in the food context. Although the occurrence of inulin-type fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) was proposed in the fruit of some banana accessions, little or no informatio...

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 experiment...

information on quality characteristics of forage species help the range managers to select a suitable grazing program that minimizes the damages to vegetation. water soluble carbohydrates (wsc) -the main photosynthetic products- are stored in various plant parts and are more likely to be consumed when plants require them. in order to investigate the changes of wsc in distinguishable organs in t...

The author and Van Slyke (5) have recently published a method for sugar determination in which the time required to decolorize a standard ferricyanide solution was used as a measure of the sugar content. The convenience which this method demonstrated in clinical work stimulated attempts to widen its range of usefulness by developing a micro modification. By carrying out the reaction in small te...

Drought is a major environmental constraint to crop distribution and productivity. Stem water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) buffer wheat grain yield against conditions unfavorable for photosynthesis during the grain filling stage. In this study, 262 winter wheat accessions and 209 genome-wide SSR markers were collected and used to undertake association analysis based on a mixed linear model (MLM)...

This experiment aimed to investigate the effects of the chitosan (CTS) and water-soluble chitosan (WSC) microspheres on plasma lipids in male Sprague-Dawley rats fed with high-fat diets. CTS microspheres and WSC microspheres were prepared by the spray-drying technique. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs showed that the microspheres were nearly spherical in shape. The mean size of C...
