Effect of non-sterilized pectin
نویسندگان
چکیده
Axenic (germfree) and holoxenic (conventional) rats were given a pectincontaining diet (5 %1 or a pectin-free diet. The diet was not sterilized and the axenic state was maintained by the addition of antibiotics. Pectin modified little or not at all the quantity of bile acids in the small intestine, fecal bile acid excretion and fecal elimination of the sum of cholesterol and bile acids. It similarly decreased the concentration of liver cholesterol and the amount of bile acids in the cecum and large intestine of both germfree and conventional rats. Pectin decreased the absorption coefficient of dietary cholesterol and its plasma concentration and increased fecal cholesterol elimination in conventional rats but not in germfree animals. The data imply that some of the actions of pectin depend on the presence of the intestinal flora but the exact nature of this relationship is unclear.

متن کاملReduction of catechin astringency by the complexation of gallate-type catechins with pectin.
The reductive effect of pectin on tea catechin astringency was investigated by using a taste sensor system and (1)H-NMR spectroscopy. The sensor analysis revealed that the astringency of gallate-type catechins (EGCg and ECg) was reduced by the addition of pectin, whereas that of non-gallate-type catechins (EGC and EC) hardly changed. Changes in the (1)H-NMR chemical shifts of the catechins and ...
