Polysaccharides are among the most abundant bioresources on earth and consequently need to play a pivotal role when addressing existential scientific challenges like climate change shift from fossil-based sustainable biobased materials. The Research Roadmap 2040 of European Polysaccharide Network Excellence (EPNOE) provides an expert's view how future research development strategies evolve fully exploit vast potential polysaccharides as renewable bioresources. It is addressed academic...

It has long been known that starch as a raw material is of strategic importance for meeting primarily the nutritional needs people around world. Year by year, demand not only traditional but also functional food based on and its derivatives growing. Problems with availability petrochemical materials, well environmental problems recycling post-production waste, make non-food industries increasingly interested in this biopolymer. Its supporters will point out countless advantages such wide...

Unarguably, diet has a significant impact on human intestinal microbiota. The role of prebiotics as substances supporting the maintenance appropriate body weight and reducing demand for energy via stimulation growth beneficial microbiota gut formation products such short-chain fatty acids, is more often highlighted. objective this study was to evaluate whether dextrins from maize starch resistant enzymatic digestion stimulate Bacteroidetes Actinobacteria strains representing majority...

In modern societies obesity has become a serious issue which must be urgently addressed. The health implications of neglected are substantial, as not only does it affect individuals’ everyday lives, but also leads to significantly increased mortality due the development several disorders such type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and depression. objective this research was investigate alterations in selected markers caused by overweight children. measured parameters were...

In the present study, it was ascertained whether dietary fibre preparations derived from potato starch with prebiotic properties would promote growth of Bacteroidetes strains while also inhibiting Firmicutes at same time. The were added to faecal samples obese children and incubated for 24 hours 37 °C under anaerobic conditions. It found that studied stimulate bacterial belonging phyla Actinobacteria, reducing quantity phylum – especially Clostridium (enzyme-resistant citric acid-modified...

Over the past few decades there has been a significant increase in prevalence of obesity both children and adults. Obesity is disease that reached epidemic levels on global scale. The development associated with environmental genetic factors. Recent studies indicate intestinal microorganisms play an important function maintaining normal body weight. One objectives gut microbiota research to determine role it plays can be reliable biomarker risk, including predisposition obesity. This article...

Abstract BACKGROUND: New starch preparations were produced by thermolysis of potato in the presence inorganic (hydrochloric) and organic (citric tartaric) acids under controlled conditions. The physicochemically structurally characterised analysed for their resistance to enzymatic digestion vitro . RESULTS: content resistant fraction dextrin D1, obtained heating acidified with hydrochloric citric acids, determined AOAC 2001.03 pancreatin‐gravimetric methods was similar (∼200 g kg −1 ). In...

Currently, dietary fibre intake is low, which one of the reasons for global obesity epidemic and other metabolic disorders. Dietary has many documented health-promoting properties, such as a prebiotic effect, inducing feelings satiety reducing postprandial glucose. Therefore, there an increasing interest in search new products rich fibre. One sources may be resistant dextrins obtained result dextrinization starch. In this study, soluble dextrin (SDexF) was prepared by heating potato starch...

Currently, there is a search for substances that would be very well tolerated by an organism and which could contribute to the activation of growth Bacteroidetes Actinobacteria strains, with simultaneous inhibition Firmicutes. High expectations in this regard are raised use fiber preparations from starch - resistant corn dextrins, branched maltodextrins soluble fiber. In paper, influence made was evaluated on activity Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes strains isolated obese children. It demonstrated...

Dietary fiber can be obtained by dextrinization, which occurs while heating starch in the presence of acids. During depolymerization, transglycosylation, and repolymerization occur, leading to structural changes responsible for increasing resistance enzymatic digestion. The conventional dextrinization time decreased using microwave-assisted heating. main objective this study was obtain dietary from acidified potato continuous discontinuous investigate structure physicochemical properties...
