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...

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.
