Physicochemical design rules for the formulation of novel salt particles with optimised saltiness (2021)
Journal Article
Hurst, K. E., Ayed, C., Derbenev, I. N., Hewson, L., & Fisk, I. D. (2021). Physicochemical design rules for the formulation of novel salt particles with optimised saltiness. Food Chemistry, 360, Article 129990. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.129990

Novel sodium reduction strategies are urgently required by the food industry. We hypothesised that redesigning salt crystals (size, density, hydrophobicity and flow properties) will offer a new route to increase saltiness and therefore reduce sodium....

Viscoelasticity of non-colloidal hydrogel particle suspensions at the liquid-solid transition (2021)
Journal Article

Suspensions of soft particles transition from a viscous fluid to a soft material upon increases in phase volume. The criteria defining the transition to this jammed state are difficult to define due to the porous and deformable nature of soft particl...

The chief intent of this review is to explain the different extraction techniques and efficiencies for the recovery of protein from food waste (FW) sources. Although FW is not a new concept, increasing concerns about chronic hunger, nutritional defic...

Combined innovations in public policy, the private sector and culture can drive sustainability transitions in food systems (2021)
Journal Article
Allison, E. H., Moberg, E., Harl, H. K., Arbow, T., Almaraz, M., Dixon, J., …Halpern, B. S. (2021). Combined innovations in public policy, the private sector and culture can drive sustainability transitions in food systems. Nature Food, 2, 282-290. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43016-021-00261-5

Global food system analyses call for an urgent transition to sustainable human diets but how this might be achieved within the current global food regime is poorly explored. Here we examine the factors that have fostered major dietary shifts across e...

The reproductive system in males and females reflects a highly dynamic underlying physiology. Yet our current understanding of this system is still largely based upon relatively simplistic snapshots of individual component cells and tissues. Gamete p...
