Soybeans are high in protein but also contain a number of minor constituents traditionally considered to be antinutritional factors. These include trypsin inhibitors, phytic acid, saponins and isoflavones. These compounds are now thought to have beneficial biological effects in the diet, such as lowering blood cholesterol or preventing cancer. Soybean processing changes the content of these min...

Correction for ‘Green synthesis and characterization of Ag nanoparticles in a phytic acid/ascorbic acid/sodium hydroxide system their application the electrochemical detection H 2 O ’ by Baolong Niu et al. , New J. Chem. 2023, 47 8797–8808, https://doi.org/10.1039/D2NJ06332H.

The objective of this paper consists in defining the interest of a new high-performance ion chromatography method (HPIC) with chemically suppressed conductivity detector for phytic acid determination in food samples. Firsly, accuracy and precision of the HPIC method have been measured. Secondly, The HPIC method and a classical absorptiometric method were compared. The HPIC method was more sensi...

Fabrication of an organic polymer nanofiltration with both high water permeability and salt rejection is still a big challenge. Herein, phytic acid (PhA)-modified graphene oxide (GO) was used...

this study was carried out to determine the effect of fermentation, hydrothermal treatment, soda (na2co3), and table salt (nacl) addition on the extent of phytase activity and phytate degradation in three iranian wheat cultivars, namely, mahdavi, ghods, and roshan. the samples were milled to three different extraction rates, i.e. whole, 85%, and 75% flours and three kinds of leavening procedure...

Evolution through natural selection suggests unnecessary genes are lost. We observed that the yeast Candida glabrata lost the gene encoding a phosphate-repressible acid phosphatase (PHO5) present in many yeasts including Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, C. glabrata still had phosphate starvation-inducible phosphatase activity. Screening a C. glabrata genomic library, we identified CgPMU2, a m...

Effective manure management to efficiently utilize organic wastes without causing environmental degradation requires a clear understanding of the transformation of P forms from diet to manure. Thus, the objective of this study was to establish quantitative relationships between P forms in diets, feces, and manures collected from U.S. Northeastern and Mid-Atlantic commercial dairy farms. Total P...

Phosphorus of plant-based feedstuffs for monogastric animals is mainly in the form of phytic P, which has a very low bioavailability. The nondigested phytic P may contribute to P pollution. Furthermore, phytic acid may reduce digestibility of other minerals and protein. This study evaluated effects of the microbial 6-phytase RONOZYME HiPhos on apparent ileal digestibility of P, phytic acid, Ca,...
