Digestive analysis of processing effects on the glycaemic impact of oats in vitro
Journal Title: SDRP Journal of Food Science & Technology - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Forty six lines of oats from a program of breeding for low glycaemic impact were assessed by in vitro digestive analysis that allowed for theoretical effects of homeostasis on blood glucose concentrations. The oats were steamed and rolled (“rolled oats”; RO), and a portion made into porridge (PO) before in vitro digestive analysis. Carbohydrate digestibility was much greater and more rapid for PO than RO after 20 min digestion (RO, 16.9 g/100 g; PO, 42.5 g/100g on a dry oats basis) but similar after 120 min digestion (43 g versus 49.8 g), reflecting a high proportion of slowly digested starch in RO. Taking into account theoretical blood glucose disposal, RO was equivalent in glycaemic effect to 10.8 g of glucose and the PO to 17.5 g of glucose per 40 g serving (10.8 versus 17.5 g glucose equivalents). Based on published GI values, in vitro glycaemic analysis allowing for homeostasis provided realistic relative estimates of effects of processing on glycaemic properties of cereal foods.

For better understanding the impact of multiple applications on the possible residue risk of pesticides on vegetables, a field trial was performed to evaluate eight pesticides (Phoxim, dichlorvos, cyhalothrin, ?-cypermet...
Assessment of the occurrence of MCR producing Enterobacteriaceae in Swiss and imported poultry meat
To determine whether MCR-producing Enterobacteriaceae are present in poultry meat at retail level, 128 fresh meat samples from Switzerland (n=40), Germany (n=69), Hungary (n=6), Denmark (n=6), Austria (n=2), and Italy (n...
Alteration in Escherichia coli and Streptococcus faecalis cells induced by ozone
To elucidate ozone action mechanism, cell suspensions of E. coli 8099 and S. faecalis ATCC29212 were initially exposed to ozone for 5 min, and then treated with sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium hydroxide, and proteinase K....
Wine phenolics: looking for a smooth mouthfeel
Each grape variety has its own phenolic profile. However, the concentration of the phenolic compounds present in wine, are mainly dependent of the winemaking process. Phenolic compounds influence wine sensorial character...
