Tocopherol: an intrinsic component of sunflower seed oil bodies (2006)
Journal Article
Fisk, I. D., White, D. A., Carvalho, A., & Gray, D. A. (2006). Tocopherol: an intrinsic component of sunflower seed oil bodies. Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 83(4), 341-344. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11746-006-1210-2

Oil bodies were removed from mature sunflower through wet grinding followed by filtration then centrifugation and recovered as the buoyant fraction. Washing this fraction with buffer (water‐washed oil bodies, WWOB) or 9 M urea (urea‐washed oil bodies... Read More about Tocopherol: an intrinsic component of sunflower seed oil bodies.

Characterisation of oat (Avena sativa L.) oil bodies and intrinsically associated E-vitamers (2005)
Journal Article
White, D. A., Fisk, I. D., & Gray, D. A. (2006). Characterisation of oat (Avena sativa L.) oil bodies and intrinsically associated E-vitamers. Journal of Cereal Science, 43(2), 244-249. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcs.2005.10.002

Transmission electron microscopy of sections of oat (Avena sativa L.) grain suggested that the highest concentrations oil bodies were in the aleurone and germ rather than the starchy endosperm. Oil bodies recovered from homogenized tissues by centrif... Read More about Characterisation of oat (Avena sativa L.) oil bodies and intrinsically associated E-vitamers.
