Dextran-producing Weissella have received significant attention. However, except for maltose,
the acceptor reactions of Weissella dextransucrases with different sugars have not been …

Background and Objectives Five-tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-blockers (infliximab,
etanercept, adalimumab, certolizumab pegol and golimumab) are available for treatment of …

Several lactic acid bacteria belonging to the genera Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and
Weissella have been introduced to wheat sourdough baking for in situ production of …

Dextrans are the main exopolysaccharides produced by Leuconostoc species. Other
dextran-producing lactic acid bacteria include Streptococci, Lactobacilli, and Weissella species. …

The effect of phytic acid on the solubility of mineral elements in oat bran was studied by
digesting phytic acid with phytase enzyme. The combined effect of phytase treatment and the …

The acid and enzymatic hydrolyses of oat β-glucan were compared for commercial oat β-glucan
and β-glucan isolated from oat grain and oat bran. The resulting mono- and …

Commercial xylanase preparation Shearzyme ® , which contains the glycoside hydrolase
family 10 endo-1,4-β-d-xylanase from Aspergillus aculeatus, was used to prepare short-chain …

Fermentation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) offers a natural means to modify technological
and nutritional properties of foods and food ingredients. This study explored the impact of …

Water-insoluble dietary fibre of dehulled oat and barley grain was isolated with enzymatic
hydrolysis of starch and protein and further extracted sequentially. The extractants used were …

Objective. Because of the role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in host defense, it was hypothesized
that its inhibition might lead to an increased risk of malignancies and infections. The …
