Emulsions are thermodynamically unstable systems that tend to separate into two
immiscible phases over time. The interfacial layer formed by the emulsifiers adsorbed at the …

Even though there are many factors that determine the human colon microbiota composition,
diet is an important one because most microorganisms in the colon obtain energy for their …

Symbiotic microorganisms that reside in the human intestine are adept at foraging glycans
and polysaccharides, including those in dietary plants (starch, hemicellulose and pectin) …

Significant progress over the past few years has been achieved in the enzymology of
microbial degradation and saccharification of plant xylan, after cellulose being the most …

The health benefits of fibre consumption are sound, but a more compressive understanding
