Effect of konjac glucomannan addition on aroma release in gels containing potato starch.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study aimed to measure the retention of aroma compounds (ethyl acetate, ethyl hexanoate and carvacrol) in dispersions based on konjac glucomannan and/or potato starch, and to highlight the influence of konjac glucomannan on the mechanisms involved in aroma retention. Publications on the

Effects of molecular characteristics of on konjac glucomannan glass transitions of potato amylose, amylopection and their mixtures.

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to explore further the functions of konjac glucomannan (KGM) in starch-based foods. Experiments were carried out using the mixed amylose/amylopectin/KGM system as a model. High-speed differential scanning calorimetry (hyper-DSC) with the support of

The polysaccharide structure of potato cell walls: Chemical fractionation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cell walls of potato tubers were fractionated by successive extraction with various reagents. A slightly degraded pectic fraction with 77% galacturonic acid was extracted in hot, oxalate-citrate buffer at pH 4. A further, major pectic fraction with 38% galacturonic acid was extracted in cold 0.1 M

Evaluation of different hydrocolloids to improve dough rheological properties and bread quality of potato-wheat flour.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of study was to investigate the effect of hydroxylpropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), arabic gum (AG), konjac glucomannan (KG) and apple pectin (AP) at 2% (w/w, potato-wheat flour basis) on the potato-wheat dough (the mass ratio was 1:1) rheological, fermentation and bread making properties. The

Adsorption of direct-acting and indirect-acting mutagens by various dietary fibers.

Only registered users can translate articles

The protective effect of dietary fiber on human cancer has received great attention during the last decades. Because dietary fiber constitutes a large group of complex polysaccharides with various solubilities, degrees of lignification, chemical compositions and structural arrangements, several

First Report of Gray Mold on Amorphophallus muelleri Caused by Botrytis cinerea in China.

Only registered users can translate articles

Amorphophallus muelleri is a perennial tuberous plant in the family Araceae. The name konjac is commonly used for the species of genus Amorphophallus that produce a polysaccharide, glucomannan. The latter, called konjac glucomannan, is extracted from the tubers of these species. Glucomannan is an

[Changes in lectin activity in plants treated with resistance inducers].

Only registered users can translate articles

We studied the changes in lectin activity in tobacco leaf disc and potato tubers treated with polysaccharides (chitosan, glucomannan, and dextran sulfate), enzymes (cellulase and pectinase), or monosaccharides (glucose and glucosamine). All studied substances changed lectin activity to a certain

Phytoalexin Elicitor Activity of Carbohydrates from Phytophthora megasperma f.sp. glycinea and Other Sources.

Only registered users can translate articles

Three unique classes of carbohydrates were isolated from the hyphal cell walls of Phytophthora megasperma f.sp. glycinea (Pmg) and compared with other substances for their activity as elicitors of the phytoalexin glyceollin in soybean tissues. Glucomannans extracted from cell walls with soybean

Regulation of endo-acting glycosyl hydrolases in the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima grown on glucan- and mannan-based polysaccharides.

Only registered users can translate articles

The genome sequence of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima encodes a number of glycosyl hydrolases. Many of these enzymes have been shown in vitro to degrade specific glycosides that presumably serve as carbon and energy sources for the organism. However, because of the broad
