Chemical composition, antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation of five different species of brown edible seaweeds (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014. The chemical and volatile composition as well as sensory profile of five brown edible seaweeds collected in the United Kingdom, was evaluated. The ash content was 190-280. mg/g, NaCl 35.1-115.1. mg/g, protein 2.9-6.0. g/g, and fat 0.6-5.8. g/...

Gibbsiella greigii sp. nov., a novel species associated with oak decline in the USA (2014)
Journal Article

In 2010, cream-coloured, Gram-negative staining, facultatively anaerobic enterobacteria were isolated from a single black oak tree (Quercus kelloggii) exhibiting decline symptoms in southern California, USA. These 12 isolates were tentatively identif... Read More about Gibbsiella greigii sp. nov., a novel species associated with oak decline in the USA.

Description of Brenneria roseae sp. nov. and two subspecies, Brenneria roseae subspecies roseae ssp. nov and Brenneria roseae subspecies americana ssp. nov. isolated from symptomatic oak (2014)
Journal Article

Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria were isolated from symptomatic oak tissue in the UK and USA. Partial gyrB sequencing placed ten strains in the genus Brenneria, with B. goodwinii as the closest phylogenetic relative. The strains were i...

Glycation is regulated by isoflavones (2014)
Journal Article

The effect of soy isoflavones on the Maillard reaction (MR) was investigated. Model systems composed of the soy protein glycinin (10 mg mL -1) and fructose (40 mg mL-1) under basic pH (∼12) conditions were employed for testing the anti-glycative effe...
