    Författare :Mauricio Penarrieta; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bolivia; Foods; Flavonoids; Phenolic Compounds; Total Antioxidant Capacity; HPLC.;

    Sammanfattning : The total antioxidant capacity was measured and the major phenolic and flavonoid compounds were identified and quantified in a selection of Bolivian crops growing at different altitudes above seal level (a.s.l.). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Plant foods, plasma enterolactone and breast cancer - with a focus on estrogen receptor status and genetic variation

    Författare :Emily Sonestedt; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; plant foods; breast cancer; fibre; epidemiology; lignans; enterolactone; plasma; estrogen receptor α; estrogen receptor β; polymorphisms; reliability; nutrition; prospective;

    Sammanfattning : Diets high in fibre have previously been associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort. Several potent compounds may exist in high-fibre diets that might protect against breast cancer, for example lignans. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Novel uses of bio-polymers in composites : from chemistry to processing of materials and food

    Författare :Faraz Muneer; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Plant bio-polymers obtained as industrial side-streams (wheat gluten and potato proteins) and specifically designed potato starch and hemp fibres were used to produce composite materials. Fractionated pea protein and pea dietary fibres were used to make pasta-like sheets for production of healthy food. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Studies towards late blight control in potato

    Författare :Laith Moushib; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oomycetes; plant induced resistance; sustainable agriculture; plant defence activators; plant innate immunity; potato; late blight;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract The oomycete Phytophthora infestans, which causes the devastating late blight disease of potato, is notorious for developing resistance to conventional control strategies (fungicide application and resistance breeding by introgression of R gene). To increase our tool box of disease management strategies available to combat P. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Complementary feeding based on Nordic foods : effects on nutrient intake, growth, biomarkers and eating behavior

    Författare :Ulrica Johansson; Torbjörn Lind; Inger Öhlund; Lene Lindberg; Anna Winkvist; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Infant feeding; healthy diet; food preference; complementary feeding; eating behavior; repeated exposure; vegetables; fruit; Nordic diet; sustainable diet; nutrition; roots; berries; flavor learning; pediatrik; Pediatrics; Medicine; medicin; Nutrition; näringslära; Public health; folkhälsa;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Early nutrition is fundamental to growth and development. Infants develop long lasting food preferences very early in life from food exposures when the brain is impressionable and sensory pathways are receptive. LÄS MER
