A comparison of the bioaccessible calcium supplies of various plant-based products relative to bovine milk (2023)
Journal Article
Muleya, M., Bailey, E. F., & Bailey, E. H. (2024). A comparison of the bioaccessible calcium supplies of various plant-based products relative to bovine milk. Food Research International, 175, Article 113795. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113795

Calcium deficiency is widespread globally, especially in diets with minimal consumption of dairy. It is therefore important to identify plant-based sources of calcium that can make a meaningful contribution to calcium intakes for populations followin...

Selenium Concentration in Cattle Serum and Fodder from Two Areas in Ethiopia with Contrasting Human Selenium Concentration (2022)
Journal Article
Hailu, K., Gashu, D., Joy, E. J. M., Alonso, S., Gizaw, S., Gameda, S., …Broadley, M. R. (2022). Selenium Concentration in Cattle Serum and Fodder from Two Areas in Ethiopia with Contrasting Human Selenium Concentration. Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 27(7), Article 200. https://doi.org/10.31083/j.fbl2707200

INTRODUCTION: Selenium (Se) is an essential mineral for livestock health and productivity. In cattle, Se deficiency is associated with delayed conception, growth retardation, and increased morbidity and mortality. METHODS: We conducted a survey of ca...

Soil and landscape factors influence geospatial variation in maize grain zinc concentration in Malawi (2022)
Journal Article
Botoman, L., Chagumaira, C., Mossa, A. W., Amede, T., Ander, E. L., Bailey, E. H., …Nalivata, P. C. (2022). Soil and landscape factors influence geospatial variation in maize grain zinc concentration in Malawi. Scientific Reports, 12(1), Article 7986. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-12014-w

Dietary zinc (Zn) deficiency is widespread globally, and in particular among people in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In Malawi, dietary sources of Zn are dominated by maize and spatially dependent variation in grain Zn concentration, which will affect di...

Geographical and seasonal variation in Iodine content of cow’s milk in the UK and consequences for the consumer´s supply (2020)
Journal Article
Coneyworth, L. J., Welham, S. J., Coulthard, L. C., Bailey, E. H., Young, S. D., Stubberfield, J., …Homer, E. M. (2020). Geographical and seasonal variation in Iodine content of cow’s milk in the UK and consequences for the consumer´s supply. Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 59, Article 126453. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtemb.2020.126453

Background. Dairy products provide a crucial source of dietary iodine for the majority of the UK population, contributing approximately 30-40 % of daily intake. Fluctuations in the iodine content of purchased milk both seasonally and annually implies...

Can selenium deficiency in Malawi be alleviated through consumption of agro-biofortified maize flour? Study protocol for a randomised, double-blind, controlled trial (2019)
Journal Article
Joy, E. J., Kalimbira, A. A., Gashu, D., Ferguson, E. L., Sturgess, J., Dangour, A. D., …Allen, E. (2019). Can selenium deficiency in Malawi be alleviated through consumption of agro-biofortified maize flour? Study protocol for a randomised, double-blind, controlled trial. Trials, 20(1), Article 795. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13063-019-3894-2

© 2019 The Author(s). Background: Micronutrient deficiencies including selenium (Se) are widespread in Malawi and potentially underlie a substantial disease burden, particularly among poorer and marginalised populations. Concentrations of Se in stapl... Read More about Can selenium deficiency in Malawi be alleviated through consumption of agro-biofortified maize flour?

Predicting arsenic solubility in contaminated soils using isotopic dilution techniques (2002)
Journal Article
Tye, A. M., Young, S. D., Crout, N. M., Zhang, H., Preston, S., Bailey, E. H., …Kilham, K. (2002). Predicting arsenic solubility in contaminated soils using isotopic dilution techniques. Environmental Science and Technology, 36(5), 982-988. https://doi.org/10.1021/es0101633

An isotopic dilution assay was developed to measure radiolabile As concentration in a diverse range of soils (pH 3.30-7.62; % C = 1.00-6.55). Soils amended with 50 mg of As kg-1 (as Na2HAsO4·7H2O) were incubated for over 800 d in an aerated "microcos...
