In this study, the effect of phytic acid supplement on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats was investigated. Diabetic rats were fed rodent chow with or without phytic acid supplementation for thirty days. Blood and organ samples were collected for assays. The average food intake was the highest and the body weight gain was the lowest in the group fed phytic acid supplement compared to the diab...

individual daily requirements recommend 25-35 g dietary fiber to maintain overall health and aid digestion. dietary fiber exists in fruits and vegetables, but can also be obtained by adding wheat bran to bread. wheat bran, however, contains high levels of phytic acid that is known to chelate iron, calcium, zinc, and magnesium and form complex phytic acid cations that reduce their bioavailabilit...

ABSTRACT: Nowadays, consumption of whole flours and flours with high extraction rate is recommended, because of their large amount of fiber, vitamins and minerals. Despite nutritional benefits of whole flours, concentration of some undesirable components such as phytic acid is higher than white flour. In this study, the effect of several sourdough lactic acid bacteria on toast bread was investi...

conclusions the present study suggests that the enzyme obtained from strain b. subtilis can be used as feed supplement in animal diet also for reduction of phosphorus pollution problem in areas of livestock production. materials and methods the present study was conducted in biotechnology laboratory, motilal nehru national institute of technology, allahabad, uttar pradesh, india. to isolate phy...

Several epidemiological studies point to a strong correlation between nutrient composition of the diet and cancer of the colon. Phytic acid, present in grains, has been credited with reducing the risk of cancer of the colon. A number of reports are available indicating the benefits of green tea consumption in reducing the risk of stomach, lung and skin cancer, but little data are available on t...

Chemomechanical debridement is an integral part in endodontics. Mechanical debridement results in the formation of smear layer on root canal surfaces whereas chemical debridment results in removal of smear layer resulting higher success of root canal treatment. This present study evaluates the chelating and antimicrobial ability of phytic acid alone and in combination with different irrigating ...

An experiment was conducted with piglets to determine the effect of dietary phytic acid supplementation on performance, electrophysiological properties of jejunum mounted in Ussing chambers, sodium-dependent glucose transporter 1 (SGLT1) protein expression in jejunum, and plasma glucose and Na concentrations. Sixteen piglets with an average initial BW of 7.40 ± 0.36 kg were randomly assigned to...
