  2. 11. Studies on the Physiological Effects of Microbial Exopolysaccharides

    Author : Cecilia Lindström; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Probiotics; Prebiotics; Microbiota; Glycemic regulation; Dietary fiber; Oats; Lactic acid bacteria;

    Abstract : The spread of lifestyle-related diseases has become epidemic throughout the world. Impaired glucose metabolism and high levels of plasma cholesterol are risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease respectively. READ MORE

  4. 12. An insight towards food-related microbial sets through metabolic modelling and functional analysis

    Author : Simonas Marcisauskas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RAVEN; gut; systems biology; comparative genomics; Kluyveromyces marxianus; bile acids; genome-scale metabolic model; next-generation sequencing; transcriptomics; thermotolerance;

    Abstract : The dietary food digestion depends on the human gastrointestinal tract, where host cells and gut microbes mutually interact. This interplay may also mediate host metabolism, as shown by microbial-derived secondary bile acids, needed for receptor signalling. Microbes are also crucial in the production of fermented foods, such as wine and dairy. READ MORE

  5. 13. Iron absorption and iron status related to diet : an experimental and epidemiological study

    Author : Per Tidehag; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; iron status; iron absorption; bioavailability; dietary fiber; phytate; calcium; radioiron; diet;

    Abstract : The absorption of iron from the diet is a major determinant of the iron status of an individual. Accurate measures of iron absorption are thus essential in the determination of the effects of diet composition on iron absorption and status. READ MORE

  6. 14. Liquid Sensing : Development and Characterisation of an Electronic Tongue Based on Electrochemical Methods

    Author : Susanne Holmin; Elena Dominguez; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : A new sensor technology for liquid sensing is reported, i.e. the electronic tongue based on electrochemical methods. Such a system involves the combination of non-selective sensors (metal electrodes) and a signal processing part. READ MORE

  7. 15. Diet and Sarcopenia : Swedish Cohort Studies in Aging Populations

    Author : Mikael Karlsson; Liisa Byberg; Wulf Becker; Tommy Cederholm; Ulrika Ericson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Older people; energy expenditure; muscle function; muscle mass; dietary pattern; sarcopenia; Nutrition; Nutrition;

    Abstract : Sarcopenia is a growing public health concern, involving a loss of muscle mass and function, thus resulting in functional impairment. The role of diet in sarcopenia is unknown. READ MORE
