Still Waters Posted April 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 23, 2018 An international team of scientists including the University of Adelaide has discovered a new complex carbohydrate in moss that could possibly be exploited for health or other uses. The scientists, from Australia's ARC Centre of Excellence in Plant Cell Walls and University of Rhode Island, in the US, say the polysaccharide looks a bit like the gut-friendly, health-promoting beta glucan found in oats and other cereals. A polysaccharide is a complex carbohydrate made up of sugar molecules. https://phys.org/news/2018-04-moss-good-gut.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
