Structure-function relationships of bacterial and enzymatically produced reuterans and dextran in sourdough bread baking application
Download2015-12-19
Chen, Xiao Yan, Levy, Clemens, Gänzle, Michael G.
Exopolysaccharides from lactic acid bacteria may improve texture and shelf life of bread. The effect of exopolysaccharides on bread quality, however, depends on properties of the EPS and the EPS producing strain. This study investigated structure-function relationships of EPS in baking...

Systematic review of safety and tolerability of a complex micronutrient formula used in mental health
Download2011
Simpson, J. Steven A., Crawford, Susan G., Kaplan, Bonnie J., Field, Catherine J., Burgess, Ellen, Goldstein, Estelle T.
Background Theoretically, consumption of complex, multinutrient formulations of vitamins and minerals should be safe, as most preparations contain primarily the nutrients that have been in the human diet for millennia, and at safe levels as defined by the Dietary Reference Intakes. However, the...

Maggiore, Jack A., Eliasziw, Misha, Rabi, Doreen, O'Beirne, Maeve, Field, Catherine J., Hanley, David A., Dewey, Deborah, Aghajafari, Fariba, Weinberg, Amy, Kaplan, Bonnie J., Ross, Sue
Background The aims of this study were to determine if pregnant women consumed the recommended vitamin D through diet alone or through diet and supplements, and if they achieved the current reference range vitamin D status when their reported dietary intake met the current recommendations....

The effect of growth temperature, process temperature, and sodium chloride on the high pressure inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes on ham
Download2016-01-01
Teixeira, Januana S., Maier, Maximilian B., Miller, Petr, Gänzle, Michael G., McMullen, Lynn M.
This study investigated the effect of growth temperature (8–32 °C), process temperature (−17 to 32 °C), and sodium chloride concentration (0–3 %) on the lethality of pressure to Listeria monocytogenes. Pressure treatments were performed using a 5-strain cocktail of L. monocytogenes. Cultures...

The intestine and the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) are essential components of whole body immune defense, protecting the body from foreign antigens and pathogens, while allowing tolerance to commensal bacteria and dietary antigens. The requirement for protein to support the immune system...

The locus of heat resistance (LHR) mediates heat resistance in Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter cloacae
Download2017-06-01
Mercer, Ryan G., Walker, Brian D., Yang, Xianqin, McMullen, Lynn M., Gänzle, Michael G.
Enterobacteriaceae comprise food spoilage organisms as well as food-borne pathogens including Escherichia coli. Heat resistance in E. coli was attributed to a genomic island called the locus of heat resistance (LHR). This genomic island is also present in several other genera of...

The modifying effects of galactomannan of Canadian-grown fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L) on the glycemic and lipidemic staus in rats
Download2008-01-01
Srichamroen, Achalee, Field, Catherine J., Thomson, Alan B., Basu, Tapan K.
Using high sucrose-fed male Sprague-Dawley rats, a study was conducted to determine the effects of feeding Galactomannan (GAL), a soluble dietary fiber extracted from Canadian-grown fenugreek seeds, on blood lipid and glucose responses. Rats (n = 8, 175–200 g) were randomly assigned to one of...

The role of intestinal microbiota in development of irinotecan toxicity and in toxicity reduction through dietary fibres in rats
Download2014
Baracos, Vickie, Dieleman, Levinus, Farhangfar, Arazm, Lin, Xiaoxi B., Gänzle, Michael G., Sawyer, Michael B., Valcheva, Rosica, Schieber, Andreas
CPT-11 is a drug used as chemotherapy for colorectal cancer. CPT-11 causes toxic side-effects in patients. CPT-11 toxicity has been attributed to the activity of intestinal microbiota, however, intestinal microbiota may also have protective effects in CP!-11 chemotherapy. This study aimed to...

Background People with kidney failure are often deficient in zinc and selenium, but little is known about the optimal way to correct such deficiency. Methods We did a double-blind randomized trial evaluating the effects of zinc (Zn), selenium (Se) and vitamin E added to the standard oral renal...
