Article
Insoluble dietary fibre is often considered to be fermented slower and to a lesser extent in (models for) the colon than soluble dietary fibre. However these comparisons are typically made for fibre components of different composition. In the case of fibre from refined cereal flours, there is little difference in fibre composition between soluble a...
Article
The effects of archetypal food processing conditions (dough formation, baking, extrusion, and cooking/boiling) on dietary fibre structure and extractability from the endosperm flours of rye, hull less barley and wheat are reported. For all flours and processes, the distributions of soluble/insoluble cell wall dietary fibre as well as the chemical c...

Article
Within cereal endosperm flours, arabinoxylan and beta-glucan molecules exist in either a soluble or an insoluble form. From a nutritional functionality viewpoint, soluble and insoluble forms offer different potential health advantages, so it is important to define both the features controlling solubilisation and the properties of each of the solubl...
Article
The nutritional values associated with the cell walls of cereal endosperm flours are due to a combination of solubilised arabinoxylan and (1-3,1-4)-β-D-glucan as well as residual non-solubilised cell wall material. In order to investigate structure-nutrition relationships, an appropriate method for the complete functional and structural characteris...

Coal Grain Analysis (CGA) is an optical microscopic imaging method that is used for routine coal petrography assessments (maceral composition and coal rank) and for obtaining compositional information on individual coal grains, enabling coal grain analysis. This method was used to evaluate two coal exploration areas within the Bowen Basin, Central...
