Bioaccessibility of iron in pearl millet flour contaminated with different soil types (2022)
Journal Article
Muleya, M., Young, S. D., Broadley, M. R., Joy, E. J., Chopera, P., & Bailey, E. H. (2023). Bioaccessibility of iron in pearl millet flour contaminated with different soil types. Food Chemistry, 402, Article 134277. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.134277

A controlled in-vitro experiment was conducted to determine the bioaccessibility of extrinsic soil iron in pearl millet contaminated with typical Malawian soils. Pearl millet was contaminated with soils at ratios typically encountered in real life. I... Read More about Bioaccessibility of iron in pearl millet flour contaminated with different soil types.

Limited Supply of Protein and Lysine Is Prevalent among the Poorest Households in Malawi and Exacerbated by Low Protein Quality (2022)
Journal Article
Muleya, M., Tang, K., Broadley, M. R., Salter, A. M., & Joy, E. J. M. (2022). Limited Supply of Protein and Lysine Is Prevalent among the Poorest Households in Malawi and Exacerbated by Low Protein Quality. Nutrients, 14(12), Article 2430. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu14122430

We estimated dietary supplies of total and available protein and indispensable amino acids (IAAs) and predicted the risk of deficiency in Malawi using Household Consumption and Expenditure Survey data. More than half of dietary protein was derived fr... Read More about Limited Supply of Protein and Lysine Is Prevalent among the Poorest Households in Malawi and Exacerbated by Low Protein Quality.

Selenium speciation and bioaccessibility in Se-fertilised crops of dietary importance in Malawi (2021)
Journal Article
Muleya, M., Young, S. D., Reina, S. V., Ligowe, I. S., Broadley, M. R., Joy, E. J., …Bailey, E. H. (2021). Selenium speciation and bioaccessibility in Se-fertilised crops of dietary importance in Malawi. Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, 98, Article 103841. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfca.2021.103841

© 2021 The Author(s) The purpose of this research was to explore the speciation and bioaccessibility of native soil-derived selenium (Se) versus Se applied via fertiliser in the edible portions of maize, groundnut and cowpea grown in Malawi. Fertilis... Read More about Selenium speciation and bioaccessibility in Se-fertilised crops of dietary importance in Malawi.
