Variations in the composition and structure of the lignins of oat (Avena sativa L.) straws according to variety and planting season
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 May 13:124811. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124811. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe differences in the composition and structure of the lignins from straws of different oat (Avena sativa L.) varieties, planted in two seasons (winter and spring), were studied in detail by different analytical techniques such as pyrolysis coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS), two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D-NMR), derivatization followed by reductive cleavage (DFRC), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Overall, the analyses revealed that oat straw lignins were enriched in g...

Influence of accelerating storage of foxtail millet on the edible and cooking quality of its porridge: An insight into the structural alteration of the in-situ protein and starch and physicochemical properties
This study aimed to elucidate the effect of the accelerating storage (40 °C, 10 weeks) of foxtail millet on the edible and cooking quality of its porridge. The structural alteration of the in-situ protein and starch in foxtail millet, as well as the physicochemical properties were investigated. Both the homogeneity and palatability of millet porridge were significantly improved after 8-week storage of millet, while its proximate compositions remained unchanged. Meanwhile, the accelerating storage increased the water absorption and swelling of millet by 20 % and 22 %, respectively. The morphological studies (using the SEM,...

Effectiveness of Lactation Cookies on Human Milk Production Rates: A Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: AND RELEVANCE: This study found no evidence for an effect of consuming LC on HMPR, PIM, or breastfeeding self-efficacy in exclusively breastfeeding parents with overall adequate perceived milk supply. Recommendations to consume LC for increasing objective or subjective milk supply may deliver false hope and unnecessary financial costs at a vulnerable time.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Clinical Trials NCT04805008.PMID:36921902 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.03.010 (Source: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)
