Recent progress in the extraction of terpenoids from essential oils and separation of the enantiomers by GC–MS (2024)
Journal Article

Terpenoids possess significant physiological activities and are rich in essential oils. Some terpenoids have chiral centers and could form enantiomers with distinct physiological activities. Therefore, the extraction and separation of terpenoids enan... Read More about Recent progress in the extraction of terpenoids from essential oils and separation of the enantiomers by GC–MS.

Characterisation of aroma-active compounds in dried Dendrobium spp. stems (Shihu) using GC-Olfactometry and a modified NIF-SNIF method (2024)
Journal Article

Dendrobium orchid stems (Chinese name Shihu) are becoming popular ingredients in food and drinks such as wine, teas and desserts, however, its aroma chemistry is not currently understood. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Gas Chromatog...

Investigating the effect of sharing environmental information on consumer responses to conventional and hypothetical ‘precision fermented’ yoghurt (2024)
Journal Article

Precision fermented dairy (PFD) is a novel technology used to produce milk proteins that can be used to replicate conventional dairy (CD) products. With PFD products likely to be available soon in the United Kingdom, this study aimed to explore consu...

Development of a lexicon for the sensory description of edible insects commercially available in Australia (2024)
Journal Article

Sensory lexicons provide an important tool for describing the sensory properties of emerging, unfamiliar foods such as edible insects. This study sought to establish and validate a sensory lexicon for the description and differentiation of edible ins...

Oxytocin (2024)
Book Chapter

The small peptide hormone oxytocin has long been recognized as a key factor in the natural induction of the birth process at the end of pregnancy, as well as in the release of milk upon suckling by the infant. It has additional roles within the brain... Read More about Oxytocin.

Comparing motivations and barriers to reduce meat and adopt protein alternatives amongst meat-eaters in Australia, China and the UK (2024)
Journal Article

Motivations are central in determining consumer food choices and provide insights regarding barriers to change. Given the global need to transition towards more sustainable protein consumption patterns, understanding cross-cultural motivations is imp...

Insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) as an indicator of leydig cell insufficiency (LCI) in Middle-aged and older men with hypogonadism: reference range and threshold (2024)
Journal Article

Insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) is a circulating biomarker for Leydig cell functional capacity in men, also indicating Leydig Cell Insufficiency (LCI) and potential primary hypogonadism. Using results from large cohort studies we explore sources of bi... Read More about Insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) as an indicator of leydig cell insufficiency (LCI) in Middle-aged and older men with hypogonadism: reference range and threshold.

The juvenile hormone analogue, pyriproxifen, alters protein and fat composition of Tenebrio molitor larvae (2024)
Journal Article

Maximising the yield of product from livestock is common practice in the agriculture industry and there is potential to extend this practice to the emerging insect industry, to produce high-quality, sustainable protein. Tenebrio molitor larvae, commo... Read More about The juvenile hormone analogue, pyriproxifen, alters protein and fat composition of Tenebrio molitor larvae.
