5 Dietary fiber (non starch polysaccharides) Polysaccharides are widespread biopolymers, which quantitatively represent the most important group of nutrients in botanical feed. Carbohydrates constitute a diverse nutrient category ranging from sugars easily digested by monogastric animals in the small intestine to dietary fiber fermented by microbes in the large intestine. The structure of the plant cell wall influences the physical and chemical properties of the individual NSP and these vary considerably between different polymers and different molecular weights of the same polymer (Choct, 1997).
Side chains, usually including a long phytol chain. 10). , 1960). , 1990). 11 General structures of betalamic acid (a), betacyanins (b), and betaxanthins (c). Betanin: R1 = R2 = H. , 2003). yellow-orange betaxanthins. 11(a), is the chromophore common to all betalain pigments. 11(c)), respectively (Azeredo, 2009). , 2004). Each betalain is a glycoside, and consists of a sugar and a colored portion. Their synthesis is promoted by light (Salisbury and Cleon, 1991). In natural plant, betalains play important roles in physiology, optical attraction for pollination, and seed dispersal (Piattelli, 1981).
Slight variations in polyacetylene structure result in extreme variations in biological activities. , 1996). , 2000). When the tissues of any allium are disrupted, the enzyme alliinase hydrolyses the flavor precursors. The result is a wide range of reactive organosulphur compounds with characteristic flavor and striking bioactivity. The first products of the reaction between alliinase and the flavor precursors are the highly reactive sulphenic acids. In garlic, the 2-propene sulphenic acid condenses to form the thiosulphinate allicin (allyl2-propenethiosulphinate), which gives it its characteristic flavor.
