TL;DR: The influence of dietary fiber on lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis in animals and in man is reviewed and one possible mechanism of hypolipemic action of fiber involves the binding of bile acids, which would result in reduced absorption of cholesterol, resulting in lower levels of serum cholesterol.

TL;DR: In this article, the rheological interaction of various SSG (sage seed gum) and GG (guar gum) blends were elaborated, and the extent of viscosity reduction in the range of 0.01-316s−1 increased from 58.68 for GG to 832.73 times for SSG which was not the same at different ranges of shear rate.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced hydrophobicity in guar gum hydrolysate (GGH) with a view to develop a suitable alternative to gum Arabic (GA) as wall material for microencapsulation.

TL;DR: In this article, the binding sites of lignin, cellulose, guar gum, low and high methoxy pectin and NDF were determined under simulated duodenal pH conditions.
Abstract: Effective stability constants (Kcff) and amount of Fe bound by lignin, cellulose, guar gum, low and high methoxy pectin and NDF were determined under simulated duodenal pH conditions. Guar gum bound 8.4 μmol Fe per g fiber with the greatest affinity (Kcff= 6.27 × 106) of any of the fibers studied; NDF, high methoxy pectin, and one of the binding sites of lignin bound 5.0. 5.0, and 19.5 μmol Fe, respectively. per g fiber, with a Kcff > 105, and cellulose bound Fe so weakly that an effective stability constant could not be calculated. Lignin had two distinct binding sites for Fe, Zn, and Cu with the high affinity sites binding in the following order: Fe > Cu > Zn, but with twice as much Cu bound as either Fe or Zn.

TL;DR: In this article, the microstructures and viscoelastic properties of guar gum solutions or gels were studied, and the results showed that the proppant suspension properties of the crosslinked gels correlate with the microstructure and elasticity of the fluids.
