Published in 2018 at "Journal of agricultural and food chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.7b04921

Abstract: Inflammation in visceral adipose tissues (VATs) contributes to the pathology of diabetes. This study focused on the inflammatory regulation in VATs by a yeast β-1,3-glucan (BYG) orally administered to ob/ob mice. BYG decreased pro-inflammatory modulators… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Polymers"

DOI: 10.3390/polym14132600

Abstract: Lutein is an important antioxidant that quenches free radicals. The stability of lutein and hence compatibility for food fortification is a big challenge to the food industry. Encapsulation can be designed to protect lutein from… read more here.
