In summary, our results show for the first time an important role for a soluble fibre,pectin, in modifying parasite biology.From theCambridge English Corpus
Following in vitro culture of female worms, increasing levels of dietarypectinwere associated with increasing release of eggs.From theCambridge English Corpus
This inactivation step significantly reduced the release of water-soluble and oxalate-soluble pectins (data not shown).From theCambridge English Corpus
Species variability in boron requirement is correlated with cell wallpectin.From theCambridge English Corpus
All regression lines were statistically significant forpectinbut none were statistically significant for cellulose (see text for details).From theCambridge English Corpus
However, an analysis ofpectinandpectinmethyl esters in developing and maturing soybean seeds has not been reported.From theCambridge English Corpus
In vitro egg production increased linearly whereas in vivo per capita egg production increased then declined with increasing concentrations ofpectin.From theCambridge English Corpus
Two classes of fibre exist : cellulose and lignins comprise the insoluble fraction whilepectin, guar gum and hemicellulose form the soluble fraction.From theCambridge English Corpus
Water-soluble fibre (pectin) or water-insoluble fibre (cellulose) was added to the diet separately at 5, 10 and 20 % levels.From theCambridge English Corpus
We suggest thatpectinpromoted parasite establishment through effects on bile sequestration in the lumen.From theCambridge English Corpus
Site specific changes inpectinesterification may facilitate cell wall folding during desiccation.From theCambridge English Corpus
Yet this pattern was not observed in vivo, where per capita egg production peaked at the 10 %pectinconcentration, but was very low in mice fed 20 %pectin.From theCambridge English Corpus
Thus, increasing concentrations ofpectinand cellulose could also be advantageous to the survival and reproduction of the parasite if intestinal morphology responds similarly in infected mice.From theCambridge English Corpus
Effects of differing purified cellulose,pectinand hemicellulose fiber diets on mucosal morphology in the rat small and large intestine.From theCambridge English Corpus
Parasite establishment was elevated in mice fed 20 %pectin, but was unaffected by cellulose concentration.From theCambridge English Corpus
