1. Exploring Swedish Oat (Avena sativa) Genetic History - from AD 1440 to today
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Oats (Avena sativa) have been one of the most important cereals in Swedish crop history, completely dominating domestic cereal production in the 19th and early 20th centuries. During this time, oats were mainly used as horse feed and since then, production has decreased with decreased use of horses. LÄS MER
2. Analysis of mixed-linkage (1-3, 1-4)-β-D-glucan in Swedish cereal cultivars and bread
Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : β-glucans are unavailable carbohydrates and a dietary fiber that cannot be readily metabolized by our own bodies’ enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract. They are instead metabolized by our microbiota in the large intestine, were they have multiple health benefits. They help with keeping the microbiota in balance and regulating our immune system.

3. Development and Validation of an Analytical Method for Phenolic Acid Extraction from Cereals and Quantification using HPLC-UV
Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)Sammanfattning : Cereals are rich in phenolic acids, a group of secondary plant metabolites that are associated with reduced risk of chronic diseases. The objective was to develop and internally validate a method for extraction and quantification of phenolic acids in cereals using HPLC-UV and to apply this method for quantification of the content of phenolic acids in several species of Swedish cereals.

4. Antioxidants (avenanthramides, tocopherols and tocotrienols) in different oat (Avena sativa) cultivars before and after malting
Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesSammanfattning : Interest in oats has increased during recent years because of its health beneficial effects, mainly as foodstuff but also as a pharmaceutical. Oats contain unique phytochemicals, like the oat specific antioxidants called avenanthramides. Oats also contain high levels of unsaturated fatty acids which can lead to oxidation problems during processing. LÄS MER
5. Interaction between mycotoxin producing fusarium species in different oat cultivars
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production EcologySammanfattning : Oat is the third most important cereal crop in Sweden and Fusarium head blight (FHB) disease makes the oat grain incompatible for animal and human consumption by producing secondary metabolites called mycotoxins.T-2, HT-2 and deoxynivalenol (DON) are the most common mycotoxins in oats produced by Fusarium spp. LÄS MER
