Rowlands DS, Thorburn MS, Thorp RM, Broadbent S, Shi X. Effect of graded fructose coingestion with maltodextrin on exogenous C-fructose and C-glucose oxidation efficiency and high-intensity cycling performance. J Appl Physiol 104: 1709–1719, 2008. First published March 27, 2008; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00878.2007.— The ingestion of solutions containing carbohydrates with different intestinal t...

BACKGROUND Adjustments of carbohydrate intake and oxidation occur in both normal-weight and overweight individuals. Nevertheless, the contribution of carbohydrates to the accumulation of fat through either reduction of fat oxidation or stimulation of fat synthesis in obesity remains poorly investigated. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to assess the postprandial metabolic changes and...

background: cercariae (larva of helminth parasites) are covered by a thick glycocalyx coat, which serves as an osmotic pro­tection during their free existence, and contain carbohydrates conjugated as glycoproteins, glycolipids and mu­co­polysaccharides. although, limited studies have been made on life cycle of cercariae from fresh water snails, however, car­bo­hydrate studies on cercariae have ...

The purpose of the current study was to examine the influence of dietary composition on short-term endurance training-induced adaptations of substrate partitioning and time trial exercise performance. Eight untrained males cycled for 90 min at approximately 54% aerobic capacity while being infused with [6,6(2)H]glucose before and after two 10-d experimental phases separated by a 2-week washout ...

Wheat kernels contain fructans, fructose based oligosaccharides with prebiotic properties, in levels between 2 and 35 weight % depending on the developmental stage of the kernel. To improve knowledge on the metabolic pathways leading to fructan storage and degradation, carbohydrate fluxes occurring during durum wheat kernel development were analyzed. Kernels were collected at various developmen...

Because the majority of cold exposure studies are constrained to short-term durations of several hours, the long-term metabolic demands of cold exposure, such as during survival situations, remain largely unknown. The present study provides the first estimates of thermogenic rate, oxidative fuel selection, and muscle recruitment during a 24-h cold-survival simulation. Using combined indirect ca...

mn(ii) salen complex immobilized on nano silicagel was prepared by incorporating mn(ii) salen complex into a nanosilica matrix and characterized by tga, xrd, atomic absorption spectroscopy and was successfully applied as catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols. oxidation of a series of alcohols in acetonitrile over immobilized mn(ii) salen complex using tetrabutylammonium peroxymonosulfate (tbao...

The catalytic wet oxidation process was used to study the degradation of carbohydrates in wastewater with glucose as a model compound. transition metals Co and Mo were transformed into their insoluble metal oxide forms, Co3O4 MoO3. A novel catalyst prepared by using CuNiIn alloy, which oxidized at 700 °C generate an mixed oxide. Wet reactions performed 150–210 for 60 min 20 bar O2 pressure. per...
