Antioxidants in Chicken Egg Yolk: Effects of Cooking, Storage and Gastrointestinal Digestion
DownloadSpring 2015
Nimalaratne, Liyana Arachchilage Chamila K.
Eggs are one of the most nutritious and economically affordable foods. They contain high quality proteins and lipids and serve as an important source of vitamins and minerals. Despite the nutritional importance, the egg industry is vulnerable to the consumers’ perception about egg cholesterol and...

CHROMATOGRAPHY APPROACHES FOR ANALYZING FRYING OILS AND ASSESSING THE ANTIOXIDATIVE ABILITY OF SITOSTEROL
DownloadFall 2013
The novel utility of sitosterol as an antioxidant in frying oils is explained mechanistically based on physical organic chemistry principles. The antioxidative effect of sitosterol is attributed to the conversion of sterol to steradiene by the 1, 2 elimination of water, which may be catalyzed by...

Fall 2015
Selenium is an essential trace element nutrient for human life, but it can be extremely toxic if taken excess. Various adsorbents have been applied for the removal of selenium from water but performed poorly in the removal of Se (VI), which is more bioavailable and more difficult to remove....

Effects of dietary combination of 25-OH-D3 and canthaxanthin on performance, meat yield, bone characteristics and antioxidant status of broilers housed under commercial and experimental conditions
DownloadFall 2014
The effects of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 (25-OH-D3), canthaxanthin (CX), alone and in combination on broiler performance, meat yield, oxidative status, skin colour and bone characteristics were evaluated in a field trial in Colombia and also under controlled experimental conditions in Canada. The...

Exploring the role of the thioredoxin system, peroxiredoxins and glutaredoxins in aluminum and cadmium tolerance in yeast and Arabidopsis thaliana
DownloadFall 2011
Aluminum (Al) and cadmium (Cd) are non-redox active metal ions of agricultural importance. Both are able to induce oxidative damage as a mechanism of toxicity. To increase our understanding of the mechanisms of Al and Cd toxicity and tolerance in plants, the potential role of antioxidant enzymes...

Fabrication of Graphene-based Nanocomposite Membranes for Treatment of Process-affected Water
DownloadSpring 2020
Membrane separation processes are extensively used for separation of solutes such as ions, colloids, macromolecules, and organic matter from water. Among various membrane technologies, ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) are progressively being employed for elimination of organic matter...

Feather Keratin Derived Sustainable Biosorbents for Adsorption of Heavy Metal Ions from Water
DownloadSpring 2023
Water is the epicenter of sustainability and has an essential part of the existence and development of the ecosystem and socioeconomic pillars. However, one in every three humans does not have access to clean drinking water around the globe and heavy metal ions pollution is the major contributor....
