Conversion of ginsenosides by Lactobacillus plantarum studied by liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole trap mass spectrometry
Download2015-01-01
Bai, Yunpeng, Gänzle, Michael G.
Ginsenosides are the active components responsible for the pharmacological properties of ginseng, a commonly used medicinal plant and food ingredient. This study aimed to determine the changes of ginsenosides during fermentation of ginseng extract or reference ginsenosides with Lactobacillus...

Conversion of hydroxycinnamic acids by Furfurilactobacillus milii in sorghum fermentations: Impact on profile of phenolic compounds in sorghum and on ecological fitness of Ff. milii
Download2023-05-01
Gaur, Gautam, Damm, Sandra, Passon, Maike, Lo, Hiu Kwan, Schieber Andreas, Gänzle, Michael G.
The conversion of phenolic compounds by lactobacilli in food fermentations contributes to food quality. The metabolism of phenolics by lactobacilli has been elucidated in the past years but information on the contribution of specific enzymes in food fermentations remains scarce. This study aimed...

Coordinated distributed experiments: An emerging tool for testing global hypotheses in ecology and environmental science
Download2013-01-01
Knapp, A. K., Collins, S. L., Turkington, R. , Long, R., White, S., Cahill, J. F., Carlyle, C. N., Beierkuhnlein, C., Luo, Y., Casper, B. B. Cleland, E., Lind, E., Smith, M. D., Henry, H. A. L., Dukes, J. S., Fraser, L. H., Reich, P. B., Sternberg, M.
There is a growing realization among scientists and policy makers that an increased understanding of today's environmental issues requires international collaboration and data synthesis. Meta-analyses have served this role in ecology for more than a decade, but the different experimental...

Cree women speak: Intergenerational perspectives on weight gain during pregnancy and weight loss after pregnancy
Download2008
Brennand, Erin A., Vallianatos, Helen, Dannenbaum, David, Petawabano, Beatrice, Raine, Kim, Willows, Noreen D., Stephen, Queenie
Obesity is prevalent among the First Nations population in Canada, with serious associated health risks. Recent studies also indicate that a high percentage of First Nations women are overweight or obese at the start of their pregnancies, with a tendency to retain weight after their children are...

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of prion protein bound to the Fab fragment of the POM1 antibody
Download2011
James, Michael N. G., Swayampakula, Mridula , Polymenidou, Magdalini , Kav, Nat N. V., Aguzzi, Adriano, Wieland, Barbara, Baral, Pravas K.
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative diseases that are characterized by the conversion of the cellular prion protein PrPc to the pathogenic isoform PrPsc. Several antibodies are known to interact with the cellular prion protein and to inhibit this transition. An antibody Fab fragment, Fab POM1,...

Crystallization and preliminary x-ray diffraction studies of DNA decamer d(CCAGGCCTGG) complexed with cobalt(III)-pepleomycin
Download2004
Kamiya, Nobuo , Tsujimoto, Gozoh, Kawano, Yoshiaki, Yaguma, Kouji, Guan, Leluo, Sugiura, Yukio, Matsumoto, Osamu
Crystals of the self-complementary oligonucleotide d(CCAGGCCTGG) [Heinemann & Alings (1989), J. Mol. Biol. 210, 369-381] complexed with the hydroperoxide of cobalt-pepleomycin (CoPEP) were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method at 298 K. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected...

Current issues surrounding the definition of trans-fatty acids: Implications for health, industry and food labels
Download2013
The definition of trans-fatty acids (TFA) was established by the Codex Alimentarius to guide nutritional and legislative regulations to reduce TFA consumption. Currently, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is excluded from the TFA definition based on evidence (primarily preclinical studies) implying...

Daily steps are low year-round and dip lower in fall/winter: Findings from a longitudinal diabetes cohort
Download2010
Pilote, Louise, Chan, Cathy, Joseph, Lawrence, Strachan, Ian, Sigal, Ron J., Dasgupta, Kaberi
Background Higher walking levels lead to lower mortality in type 2 diabetes, but inclement weather may reduce walking. In this patient population, we conducted a longitudinal cohort study to objectively quantify seasonal variations both in walking and in two vascular risk factors associated with...
