Advances in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for the structure elucidation of water-extractable and water-unextractable arabinoxylan from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) flour KU Leuven
The consumption of dietary fiber is associated with several health benefits. As a staple crop, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major source of dietary fiber in the diet of a large portion of the world population.
The predominant dietary fiber in wheat is arabinoxylan (AX). It consists of a linear backbone of β-(1,4)-linked ß-D-xylopyranosyl (xylose) residues that can be unsubstituted (uXyl), mono-substituted (mXyl) or ...
