“…Altering the levels of (1,3;1,4)-b-D-glucan in walls of cereals and grasses could find applications in human and animal nutrition, or in the malting and brewing industries. Barley (1,3;1,4)-b-D-glucans are beneficial to human health, where they represent soluble dietary fiber and appear to reduce the risks of colorectal cancer, high serum cholesterol, and cardiovascular disease, obesity, and non-insulin-dependent diabetes (Brennan and Cleary, 2005). On the other hand, (1,3;1,4)-b-Dglucans are considered to be antinutritive in feed formulations for monogastric animals and have undesirable effects in cereal processing applications such as malting and brewing (Brennan and Cleary, 2005).…”

The availability of information on the HvCslF gene family, together with the transcriptional profiles presented here, have allowed the identification of target genes for manipulation, depending on whether the objective is to increase or decrease (1,3;1,4)-b-D-glucan levels in grains, or in vegetative tissues.…”

“…Furthermore, recent pig feeding trials indicate that consumption of arabino-(1→4)-b-D-xylan attenuates the somewhat damaging effect of the western diet on gut health (Belobrajdic et al, 2011). Conversely, (1→3, 1→4)-b-D-glucan also reduces digestibility and hence available metabolizable energy in monogastric animals such as pigs and poultry and lowers extraction potential and reduces filterability during malting and brewing (Brennan and Cleary, 2005).…”

Immunolabeling, combined with chemical analyses and transcript profiling, have provided a comprehensive temporal and spatial picture of the deposition and modification of cell wall polysaccharides during barley (Hordeum vulgare) grain development, from endosperm cellularization at 3 d after pollination (DAP) through differentiation to the mature grain at 38 DAP. (1→3)-β-d-Glucan appears transiently during cellularization but reappears in patches in the subaleurone cell walls around 20 DAP. (1→3, 1→4)-β-Glucan, the most abundant polysaccharide of the mature barley grain, accumulates throughout development. Arabino-(1-4)-β-d-xylan is deposited significantly earlier than we previously reported. This was attributable to the initial deposition of the polysaccharide in a highly substituted form that was not recognized by antibodies commonly used to detect arabino-(1-4)-β-d-xylans in sections of plant material. The epitopes needed for antibody recognition were exposed by pretreatment of sections with α-l-arabinofuranosidase; this procedure showed that arabino-(1-4)-β-d-xylans were deposited as early as 5 DAP and highlighted their changing structures during endosperm development. By 28 DAP labeling of hetero-(1→4)-β-d-mannan is observed in the walls of the starchy endosperm but not in the aleurone walls. Although absent in mature endosperm cell walls we now show that xyloglucan is present transiently from 3 until about 6 DAP and disappears by 8 DAP. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction of transcripts for GLUCAN SYNTHASE-LIKE, Cellulose Synthase, and CELLULOSE SYNTHASE-LIKE genes were consistent with the patterns of polysaccharide deposition. Transcript profiling of some members from the Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes database glycosyl transferase families GT61, GT47, and GT43, previously implicated in arabino-(1-4)-β-d-xylan biosynthesis, confirms their presence during grain development.

“…Fruits and vegetables are the most popular components added to cereal extrudates, but some waste products or functional compound isolates may be used [8,13,[18][19][20]. Linden flower (Tiliae inflorescentia) is one of the herbal supplements most often used.…”

Extruded corn gruels containing linden flowers: quantitation of phenolic compounds and selected quality characteristics

et al. 2015

Extrusion-cooking of plant materials may enhance antioxidant activity and improve health benefits. Selected antioxidant polyphenols in extruded corn gruels enriched with different amounts of linden flowers were determined by LC-ESI-MS/MS and quality characteristics were determined.Phenolic content increased with Tiliae inflorescentia addition and was not decreased by high-temperature extrusion. Linden flower incorporation into instant gruels should be limited to 10% to retain acceptable sensory properties.
