Rheology, microstructure and diffusion in soft gelatin nanocomposites packed with anionic nanogels (2021)
Journal Article
Borah, P. K., Yakubov, G. E., & Duary, R. K. (2021). Rheology, microstructure and diffusion in soft gelatin nanocomposites packed with anionic nanogels. Food Structure, 30, Article 100216. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foostr.2021.100216

The colloidal stability of therapeutic nanoparticles for improving human health is a significant challenge, owing to aggregation and sedimentation. To overcome such limitations, gelatin-based nanocomposites are designed with increasing concentration...

Development of a separated-dough method and flour/starch replacement in gluten free crackers by cellulose and fibrillated cellulose (2021)
Journal Article
Ren, Y., Yakubov, G. E., Linter, B. R., & Foster, T. J. (2021). Development of a separated-dough method and flour/starch replacement in gluten free crackers by cellulose and fibrillated cellulose. Food and Function, 12(18), 8425-8439. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1fo01368h

Two strategies were combined and applied in this study to achieve a desired structure and texture of gluten free crackers and to reduce the calorie content. The first strategy is increasing structural heterogeneity of crackers and doughs and a separa...

Depletion of HP1α alters the mechanical properties of MCF7 nuclei (2021)
Journal Article
Pradhan, S., Solomon, R., Gangotra, A., Yakubov, G. E., Willmott, G. R., Whitby, C. P., …Williams, M. A. (2021). Depletion of HP1α alters the mechanical properties of MCF7 nuclei. Biophysical Journal, 120(13), 2631-2643. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.2021.05.017

Within the nucleus of the eukaryotic cell, DNA is partitioned into domains of highly condensed, transcriptionally silent heterochromatin and less condensed, transcriptionally active euchromatin. Heterochromatin protein 1α (HP1α) is an architectural p... Read More about Depletion of HP1α alters the mechanical properties of MCF7 nuclei.

Viscoelastic behaviour of rapid and slow self-healing hydrogels formed by densely branched arabinoxylans from Plantago ovata seed mucilage (2021)
Journal Article
Yu, L., Stokes, J. R., & Yakubov, G. E. (2021). Viscoelastic behaviour of rapid and slow self-healing hydrogels formed by densely branched arabinoxylans from Plantago ovata seed mucilage. Carbohydrate Polymers, 269, Article 118318. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118318

We report rheological characterisation of hydrogels formed by highly substituted brush-like arabinoxylans from Plantago ovata seed mucilage. Two arabinoxlyan fractions with similar molecular weight and linkage compositions are chosen to form gels wit...

Viscoelasticity of non-colloidal hydrogel particle suspensions at the liquid-solid transition (2021)
Journal Article
Shewan, H. M., Yakubov, G. E., Bonilla, M. R., & Stokes, J. R. (2021). Viscoelasticity of non-colloidal hydrogel particle suspensions at the liquid-solid transition. Soft Matter, 17(19), 5073-5083. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0sm01624a

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...
