Journal ArticleDOI
The potential use of cereal (1→3,1→4)-β-d-glucans as functional food ingredients
TL;DR: In this paper, the inclusion of β-glucans into both cereal and dairy-based food systems has been discussed, illustrating their potential as ingredients to manipulate food structure and texture.

Chemistry and Organization of Aleurone Cell Wall Components From Wheat and Barley
Antony Bacic,Bruce A. Stone +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, aleurone cell wall preparations from wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Insignia) and barley (Hordeum vulgare cv., Clipper) are composed of two main types of polysaccharides, heteroxylans and 1,3;1,4-βglucans.
Book ChapterDOI
Other Plant Polysaccharides
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss important sources of polysaccharides and their molecular constitutions and the relationships of the hemicelluloses and pectic substances in primary cell walls to the poly-saccharide available in abundance from tissues in developed, mature plant stuffs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physicochemical properties and structural characterization by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy of wheat β-D-glucan—comparison with other cereal β-D-glucans
TL;DR: In this paper, the first isolation, purification and characterization of a wheat β-D-glucan was reported, and additional structural detail was revealed by hydrolysis with (1→3)(1→4)-β-D -glucans-4-oglucanohydrolase (lichenase, EC 3.2.1.8) and analysis of the oligosaccharide reaction products.

Gas‐Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry in Methylation Analysis of Polysaccharides
TL;DR: New methylation procedures and the combined application of gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry for qualitative and quantitative analysis of mixtures of methylated sugars permit methylation analysis of polysaccharides to be performed more accurately, faster and with less material than previously as discussed by the authors.

Book ChapterDOI
The Hemicelluloses of Grasses and Cereals
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the hemicelluloses of the Gramineae (grasses and cereals), which refers to all of the types of polysaccharide in the Gramineaae, other than celluloses, starches, and fructans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and chemical composition of barley endosperm cell walls
TL;DR: In this paper, a microfibrillar phase embedded in an amorphous matrix was found to contain cellulose, together with tightly bound arabinoxylan and polysaccharides rich in mannose.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new substrate for investigating the specificity of β-glucan hydrolases
TL;DR: A new 1,3; 1,4-/Iglucan with these properties has been prepared and its use in studies on the specificity of /3- glucan endohydrolases is described.
