Factors Influencing β-Glucan Levels and Molecular Weight in Cereal-Based Products

2009-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The beneficial role of soluble dietary fiber in human nutrition is well documented and has lead to a growing demand for the incorporation of β-glucan, particularly from oats and barley, into foods. β-Glucan with high solubility and high molecular weight distribution results in increased viscosity in the human intestine, which is desirable for increased physiological activity. Molecular weight, level, and solubilit...
