Journal ArticleDOI
New hypotheses for the health-protective mechanisms of whole-grain cereals: what is beyond fibre?
TL;DR: Benefits of nutrigenomics to study complex physiological effects of the ‘whole-grain package’, and the most promising ways for improving the nutritional quality of cereal products are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A hypothesis to explain the role of meat-eating in human evolution
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of pigs as a potential model for research into dietary modulation of the human gut microbiota.
TL;DR: The present review displays the similarities and differences in intestinal microbial ecology between humans and pigs, scrutinising the pig as a potential animal model, with regard to possible health effects.

TL;DR: In vitro fermentations with inocula made from human faeces and from rat caecal contents gave similar results and there was a close correspondence between the data obtained in the present experiment and those previously published in in vivo studies in the rat.

S. Boisen,B. O. Eggum +1 more
TL;DR: This research attacked the mode confusion problem by developing a modeling framework to estimate the importance of mechanical properties in the response of a language-based approach.

Investigation of chromium, cerium and cobalt as markers in digesta. Rate of passage studies
TL;DR: A new liquid marker, cobalt-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), and two solid markers, chromium (Cr) and cerium (Ce) mordanted plant cell walls, were investigated and Co- EDTA was found to be comparable to Cr-EDTA.

Rate of passage of digesta in sheep. 4. Passage of marker through the alimentary tract and the biological relevance of rate-constants derived from the changes in concentration of marker in faeces.
W. L. Grovum,V. J. Williams +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that the changes in half-times were proportionately much greater in the caecum and proximal colon than in the reticulo-rumen, and the mean transit time of marker through the digestive tract also increased from 721 to 1345 min when the concentrate diet was given.
