Enhancement of total lipid production in vegetative tissues of alfalfa and sainfoin using chemical mutagenesis
Download2019-12-31
Wijekoon, Champa P., Singer, Stacy D., Weselake, Randall J., Petrie, James R., Singh, Surinder, Jayawardhane, Kethmi N., Shah, Saleh, Chen, Guanqun, Eastmond, Peter J., Acharya, Surya N.
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifoila Scop.) are two key forage legumes for the western Canadian cattle industry. Despite the high protein content, drawbacks to their use exists, including inefficient protein digestibility and energy use efficiency in the ruminant...

Evidence for the essentiality of arachidonic and docosahexaenoic acid in the postnatal maternal and infant diet for the development of the infant's immune system early in life
Download2016-01-01
Richard, Caroline, Lewis, Erin D., Field, Catherine J.
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA), especially the balance between arachidonic (AA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids are known to have important immunomodulatory roles during the postnatal period when the immune system is rapidly developing. AA and DHA are required in infant formula...

Evolution of sourdough microbiota in spontaneous sourdoughs started with different plant materials
Download2016-01-01
Ripari, Valery, Gänzle, Michael G., Berardi, Enrico
The preparation of sourdough in bakeries may include the use of inocula, e.g. fruits, flowers or rumen cuts to accelerate the process of selection of suitable microorganisms. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of these inocula on the microbial evolution in sourdoughs. First, the...

Exploiting synergies of sourdough and antifungal organic acids to delay fungal spoilage of bread
Download2018-01-01
Quattrini, Mattia, Liang, Nuanyi, Fortina, Maria Grazia, Xiang, Sheng, Curtis, Jonathan M., Gänzle, Michael G.
Fungal spoilage of bread remains an unsolved issue in bread making. This work aims to identify alternative strategies to conventional preservatives in order to prevent or delay fungal spoilage of bread. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of bacterial metabolites and chemical preservatives...

Extraction and fractionation of phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids from potato peels using acidified water/ethanol-based solvents
Download2014-01-01
Maldonado, Alma Fernanda Sanchez, Mudge, Elizabeth, Gänzle, Michael G., Schieber, Andreas
Potato processing generates potato peels as byproducts. Methanolic extracts from the peels result in mixtures of phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids. Phenolic acids have potential for food applications owing to their antioxidant and antibacterial properties. However, when extracted from potatoes,...

Patel, Dhruvesh, Goruk, Susan, Newell, Marnie, Chen, Guanqun, Richard, Caroline, Field, Catherine J.
Long-chain n-3 PUFAs (LCPUFAs) improve immune development and reduce atopic disease risk in infants. Stearidonic acid (SDA) can be a substrate for biosynthesis of n-3 LCPUFAs.<bold>Objective: </bold>We aimed to determine the effect of feeding an SDA-enriched diet during suckling and weaning on...

Folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 status of a group of high socioeconomic status women in the Alberta Pregnancy Outcomes and Nutrition (APrON) cohort
Download2014-01-01
Fayyaz, Faiqa, Wang, Flora, Jacobs, René L., O'Connor, Deborah L., Bell, Rhonda C., Field, Catherine J.
Folic acid supplementation and food fortification policies have improved folate status in North American women of child bearing age. Recent studies have reported the possible inadequacy of vitamin B12 and B6 in the etiology of neural tube defects in folate-fortified populations. The aims of this...

Food fermentations for improved digestibility of plant foods - an essential ex situ digestion step in agricultural societies?
Download2021-01-05
The fermentation of plant foods detoxifies and eliminates compounds that are inherently present in grains and legumes and have antinutritive properties, including cyanogenic glycosides, vicine and convicine, phytate, phenolic compounds, immune-reactive proteins and fermentable oligosaccharides,...
