Journal Article
Iwanaga, D., Gray, D. A., Fisk, I. D., Decker, E. A., Weiss, J., & McClements, D. J. (2007). Extraction and characterization of oil bodies from soy beans: A natural source of pre-emulsified soybean oil. Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 55(21), 8711-8716. https://doi.org/10.1021/jf071008w

Soybeans contain oil bodies that are coated by a layer of oleosin proteins. In nature, this protein coating protects the oil bodies from environmental stresses and may be utilized by food manufacturers for the same purpose. In this study, oil bodies...

Sunflower-seed oil body emulsions: Rheology and stability assessment of a natural emulsion (2007)
Journal Article
White, D. A., Fisk, I. D., Mitchell, J. R., Wolf, B., Hill, S. E., & Gray, D. A. (2008). Sunflower-seed oil body emulsions: Rheology and stability assessment of a natural emulsion. Food Hydrocolloids, 22(7), 1224-1232. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodhyd.2007.07.004

The viscoelastic characteristics of a purified oil body cream (67.6±0.7% lipid, 5.4±0.7% protein and 25.2±0.1% moisture) recovered from sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus L.) have been determined. Moreover, the effects of pH (2-7) and CaCl2 concentra... Read More about Sunflower-seed oil body emulsions: Rheology and stability assessment of a natural emulsion.

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.
