Freeze-thaw stability of oilseed rape oleosome emulsions (2025)
Journal Article
Bramante, F., di Bari, V., Adams, G., Beaudoin, F., Waschatko, G., Jakobi, R., Billecke, N., & Gray, D. (2025). Freeze-thaw stability of oilseed rape oleosome emulsions. Journal of Food Engineering, 392, Article 112471. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfoodeng.2025.112471

This work investigated the stability of natural oleosome emulsions on freeze-thawing. Oleosomes were recovered from oilseed rape seeds following an aqueous extraction process using sodium bicarbonate (0.1 M). The final emulsions pH was adjusted to 9,...

Rapeseed oleosomes facilitate intestinal lymphatic delivery and oral bioavailability of cannabidiol (2024)
Journal Article
Ji, L., Feng, W., Chen, H., Chu, Y., Wong, A., Zhu, Y., Sinatra, G., Bramante, F., Carrière, F., Stocks, M. J., di Bari, V., Gray, D. A., & Gershkovich, P. (2025). Rapeseed oleosomes facilitate intestinal lymphatic delivery and oral bioavailability of cannabidiol. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 668, Article 124947. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124947

Due to high lipophilicity and extensive first-pass metabolic loss, cannabidiol (CBD) has low oral bioavailability. Co-administration of CBD and long-chain lipids facilitates the intestinal lymphatic delivery, resulting in higher systemic bioavailabil...

Material properties of ex-vivo milk chocolate boluses examined in relation to texture perception (2018)
Journal Article
Qi, H., Bramante, F., Davies, A., Elleman, C., Fourtouni, K., & Wolf, B. (2018). Material properties of ex-vivo milk chocolate boluses examined in relation to texture perception. Food and Function, 9(6), 3532-3546. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8FO00548F

The texture perception of chocolate products is a major driver for consumer liking and the popularity of this confectionary category. Whilst some texture attributes are clearly linked to the material properties of the chocolate bar itself, others are...
