The release of volatile compounds, such as aroma, from a food material during hydration is of wide relevance to the food industry. To this end, dry powders of varying chemical composition were hydrated in a controlled system to investigate the impact...

Salt release from potato crisps (2012)
Journal Article
Tian, X., & Fisk, I. D. (2012). Salt release from potato crisps. Food and Function, 3(4), https://doi.org/10.1039/C2FO10282J

The rate of salt release in-mouth from salted potato crisps was evaluated. It was hypothesised that
a slow steady release of sodium would occur on chewing and hydration; to test this a crisp was chewed
and held in the oral cavity without swallowing... Read More about Salt release from potato crisps.

Effects of manipulating hypothalamic triiodothyronine concentrations on seasonal body weight and torpor cycles in Siberian hamsters (2012)
Journal Article
Murphy, M., Jethwa, P. H., Warner, A., Barrett, P., Nilaweera, K. N., Brameld, J. M., & Ebling, F. J. (2012). Effects of manipulating hypothalamic triiodothyronine concentrations on seasonal body weight and torpor cycles in Siberian hamsters. Endocrinology, 153(1), 101-112. https://doi.org/10.1210/en.2011-1249

Siberian hamsters display photoperiodically regulated annual cycles in body weight, appetite, and reproduction. Previous studies have revealed a profound up-regulation of type 3 deiodinase (DIO3) mRNA in the ventral ependyma of the hypothalamus assoc...

The endocrine disruptors dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) influence Leydig cell regeneration following ethane dimethane sulphonate treatment of adult male rats (2011)
Journal Article
Heng, K., Anand-Ivell, R., Teerds, K., & Ivell, R. (2012). The endocrine disruptors dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) influence Leydig cell regeneration following ethane dimethane sulphonate treatment of adult male rats. International Journal of Andrology, 35(3), 353-363. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2605.2011.01231.x

The manner by which endocrine-disrupting xenobiotics, such as phthalates, can induce changes in the development of the male reproductive system still remains largely unknown. Herein, we have explored the application of ethane dimethane sulphonate (ED...
