Sugarcane fiber, a variety of processed bagasse, is sometimes added to human food. [23] It is a soluble fiber that can help promote intestinal regularity. [23] One animal study suggests that sugarcane fiber combined with a high-fat diet may help control type 2 diabetes. [24] It is a good source of lignoceric and cerotic acids. [25]
The cellular spindle apparatus includes the spindle microtubules, associated proteins, which include kinesin and dynein molecular motors, condensed chromosomes, and any centrosomes or asters that may be present at the spindle poles depending on the cell type. [4] The spindle apparatus is vaguely ellipsoid in cross
A sugar cane mill is a factory that processes sugar cane to produce raw sugar [1] or plantation white sugar. [2] Some sugar mills are situated next to a back-end refinery, that turns raw sugar into (refined) white sugar. [3] The term is also used to refer to the equipment that crushes the sticks of sugar cane to extract the juice. [4]
Microtubule and tubulin metrics [1]. Microtubules are polymers of tubulin that form part of the cytoskeleton and provide structure and shape to eukaryotic cells. Microtubules can be as long as 50 micrometres, as wide as 23 to 27 nm [2] and have an inner diameter between 11 and 15 nm. [3]
Sugarcane wax is not only suitable for technical applications but also for applications in the food industry. So, sugarcane wax can be used as care product (shoe, floor and car care), in the leather and plastics industry as well as for applications in the additive and cosmetics industry. Furthermore, it is applicable in the paints and printing ...
The microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) is a structure found in eukaryotic cells from which microtubules emerge. MTOCs have two main functions: the organization of eukaryotic flagella and cilia and the organization of the mitotic and meiotic spindle apparatus , which separate the chromosomes during cell division .
Sugarcane or sugar cane is a species of tall, perennial grass (in the genus Saccharum, tribe Andropogoneae) that is used for sugar production. The plants are 2–6 m (6–20 ft) tall with stout, jointed, fibrous stalks that are rich in sucrose , [ 1 ] which accumulates in the stalk internodes .
Plant cells differ from animal cells in that they have a cell wall. During mitosis, the new cell wall is built by the formation of a cell plate starting in the center of the cell. This process is facilitated by a phragmoplast, a microtubule array unique to plant cell mitosis. The building of cell plate and ultimately the new cell wall requires ...
