TL;DR: Pectin, an important cell wall component of dicotyledonous plants, is probably the most complex macromolecule in nature.
Abstract: Pectin, an important cell wall component of dicotyledonous plants, is probably the most complex macromolecule in nature. Here, we critically summarize the large amount of data on pectin structure. An alternative model for the macromolecular structure of pectin is put forward, together with ideas on

TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative research method for analyzing a supply chain network and for identifying effective chain redesign strategies is presented, where the main questions individual companies face are whether, why, how and with whom they should start supply chain management activities.
Abstract: Dynamic demands and constraints imposed by a rapidly changing business environment make it increasingly necessary for companies in the food supply chain to cooperate with each other. The main questions individual (food) companies face are whether, why, how and with whom they should start supply chain management activities. Presents a qualitative research method for analyzing a supply chain network and for identifying effective chain redesign strategies. Presents a generic list of supply chain redesign strategies based on a multi‐disciplinary literature review. Proposes that in order to identify the most effective strategies in a specific chain scenario one should focus on the identification and management of the sources of uncertainties in the supply chain’s decision‐making processes. The application of the research method in three food supply chains resulted in a valuable tool that can be used in supply chain redesign projects, as it indicates potentially effective redesign strategies when a specific source of uncertainty is encountered in a supply chain.

TL;DR: The data indicate that factors related to the host genotype have an important effect on determining the bacterial composition in the GI tract.
Abstract: The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is one of the most complex ecosystems consisting of microbial and host cells. It is suggested that the host genotype, the physiology of the host and environmental fa...
