  1. 6. Fermentation of quinoa, canihua and amaranth to degrade phytate and improve mineral bioavailability

    Författare :Vanesa Castro-Alba; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Quinoa; Canihua; Amaranth; Iron; Zinc; Calcium; Phytate; Fermentation; Accessibility; Bioavailability;

    Sammanfattning : Plant-based diets are the main source of nutrients for vegetarians worldwide and for low-income inhabitants of developing countries, such as in rural areas of Bolivia. These diets may contain high levels of mineral inhibitors such as phytate that impairs mineral absorption in the human gut. LÄS MER

  2. 7. In Vitro Availability of Iron in High-Tannin Sorghum. Effect of Enzymatic Oxidation of Phenolic Compounds

    Författare :Erika Matuschek; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bioavailability; catechol groups; polyphenols; polyphenol oxidase; iron; in vitro availability; tyrosinase; fruit extracts; sorghum; oxidation; tannins; galloyl groups;

    Sammanfattning : Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional disorder in the world. In low income countries, it is to a large extent caused by low bioavailability of iron in the vegetable diet. Vegetable diets contain large amounts of compounds that inhibit iron absorption, e.g. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Nutritional Limitations of a Green Protein Shift with Focus on Iron

    Författare :Cecilia Mayer Labba; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; phytate; non-heme iron absorption; antinutrients; protein shift; protein extract; meat substitutes; plant-based; fava bean; zinc bioavailability; iron bioavailability; sustainable nutrition;

    Sammanfattning : A dietary shift into plant-based diets (PBD) to reduce the climate footprint is advocated. Effects on nutrition and health from a modern PBD, composed of replacement products based on protein extracts are however currently unknown. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Vitamin A Intake, Status and Improvement Using the Dietary Approach : Studies of Vulnerable Groups in Three Asian Countries

    Författare :Viveka Persson; Ulf Svanberg; Uppsala universitet; []

  5. 10. Bioprocessing of Oats Influence on Phytate Hydrolysis and Mineral Bioavailability

    Författare :Marie Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zinc absorption; bread fermentation; oats; bioprocessing; malting; iron absorption; mineral bioavailability; phytase activity; phytate;

    Sammanfattning : The effects of bioprocessing on enzymatic phytate hydrolysis in oats were studied during malting, soaking and breadmaking to elucidate the reasons for poor phytase activity in oats and determine the optimal conditions for phytate hydrolysis. Malting of oats in a pilot plant was studied to investigate whether the malting process developed in the laboratory could be used in large scale preparation of oats with reduced phytate content.
