List 3 differences between NDF and NSC
|
1. NDF beta bonds, NSC alpha bonds.
2. the beta bonds component sugars are not available for absorption to animals. 3. NSC are an important energy source for many tissues(brain, red blood cells) |
|
|
What effects do the alpha and beta bonds have on polysaccharides digestion?
|
Alpha: readily hydrolyzed by the body amylase enzymes in the small intestine yielding free glucose units.
Beta: make cellulose essentially insoluble and resistant to breakdown by monogastricanimals digestive enzymes. |
