Bioactive Carbohydrates and Dietary Fibre

ISSN: 2212-6198

Bioactive Carbohydrates and Dietary Fibre is intended to be an international journal focused on dietary fibre, and bioactive carbohydrates (including bioactive polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and glycoproteins. It will include original studies and comprehensive reviews on the primary structure, molecular characteristics including conformation, size and shape, and bioactivities demonstrated by studies using in vitro, cell culture, animal and human clinical trials for understanding the action mechanisms and efficacy of bioactive carbohydrates from plants, fungi, animals and produced by biotechnology.Specif... bioactivities such as reducing serum cholesterol, modulating blood glucose and insulin levels, fermentability in the gastrointestinal track, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, immune regulatory and anti-oxidant activities demonstrated by these bioactive carbohydrates are the main focus of this journal. It also covers the areas of interaction of dietary fibres, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides and glycoproteins with food matrices which may enhance or alter their efficacy, shelf-life stability of the bioactivities.Papers will cover such issues as: • Structural characterization of bioactive polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and glycoproteins • Conformation and molecular characteristics of bioactive polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and glycoproteins • Bioactivities of polysaccharides including: anti-cancer, immune modulation, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant etc • New anti-cancer polysaccharides from herbs • Recent advances in bioactive polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and glycoproteins • Analysis and physicochemical characterization of soluble and insoluble dietary fibre • Effects of dietary fibre on post-prandial blood glucose and/or insulin levels • Effect of dietary fibre on blood total and/or LDL cholesterol levels; • Effects of dietary fibre on gut function and ecology of microflora • Role of a diet rich in soluble fibre in reducing body weight • Development of dietary fibre industry • Animal and clinical trial studies • Updates on regulatory changes and legal constraints on nutritional dietary fibre and other food hydrocolloidsThe subject borders on medicine but is not a medical subject. The common factor for published papers is “bioactivity” and it's influence on health. Origin, husbanding, extraction, characterization, purification, cell culture, animal and clinical trials leading towards a medical or food supplemental applications will be considered. To be considered for this journal the research needs to cross-over from chemistry/biochemist... into biological investigation, with opportunities too for those who work on immune systems to contribute.Types of contribution: • Original research papers (full papers and short communications) • Invited reviews • Opinion pieces • Perspective commentaries.

Journal of Functional Foods

ISSN: 1756-4646
5 Year impact factor: 4.6
Impact factor: 3.8

JFF (Journal of Functional Foods) aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients. The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food science, nutrition and health, welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal covers the following areas:Food bioactive compounds & nutraceutical ingredients such as plant bioactives, dietary fibre, probiotics, prebiotics, functional lipids, bioactive peptides, vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, botanicals etc.Food digestion and its processes including studies of the microbiota and gut- organ axisHealthy food constituents' characterization using in-vivo animal or/and human studies, genomic, chemical, biochemical technologiesEfficaci... and safety of bioactive compoundsEffects of processing (including packaging and storage) on food and food ingredients functionalityRegulat... aspects of functional foods and related issues e.g. labelling, substantiation of health claims, allergensPersonalize... nutrition, sport nutritionRole of food ingredients, functional foods and diet in disease prevention and in the management of diseasesNutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and food designed for the benefit of specific pathologies.The following papers are not within the scope of the Journal:Papers only dealing with food analysis and characterization of food structure and compositionPapers focusing on the absorption kinetic of single bioactivesPapers dealing with pure compounds having no connection with foodSince January 2020, JFF is an open access journal. Authors who publish in the Journal will be able to make their work immediately, permanently, and freely accessible. JFF continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal kept its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.Elsevi... works with institutions and funding bodies to help authors publishing in our journals comply with open access policies.

Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology

ISSN: 0946-672X
5 Year impact factor: 3.6
Impact factor: 3.6

Journal of the Federation of European Societies on Trace Elements and Minerals - FESTEMThe journal provides the reader with a thorough description of theoretical and applied aspects of trace elements in medicine and biology and is devoted to the advancement of scientific knowledge about trace elements and trace element species. Trace elements play essential roles in the maintenance of physiological processes. During the last decades there has been an important progress in scientific investigation about the function and binding of trace elements. The Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology focuses on the description and dissemination of scientific results concerning the biological role and action of trace elements including different fields such as analytical methods, biochemistry, patho-biochemistry of metabolic processes, molecular biology, nutrition, toxicology, environmental toxicology, epidemiology, clinical applications in diagnosis, therapy, food chain and veterinary medicine. Progress in the knowledge of the biological role of trace elements depends, however, on advances in trace elements chemistry. The Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology publishes high quality, evidence-based research and includes only those studies that base their results on proven analytical methods and in which the quality assurance regarding the execution of experiments and achievement of results is guaranteed.The Federation of European Societies on Trace Elements and Minerals (FESTEM) The International Society for Zinc Biology (ISZB)
