Dietary selenium intake among Ethiopian children in areas known for selenium spatial variability (2023)
Journal Article
Hailu, K., Joy, E. J., Ferguson, E. L., Bailey, E. H., Wilson, L., Davis, K., …Gashu, D. (2023). Dietary selenium intake among Ethiopian children in areas known for selenium spatial variability. Frontiers in Nutrition, 10, Article 1250002. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnut.2023.1250002

Introduction: There is spatial variability of selenium (Se) in soil and crops in Ethiopia. We assessed the Se content of food items, breast milk and urine, among infants in Ethiopia from two areas with contrasting Se concentrations in soils. Metho...

The dataset comprises primary data for the concentration of 29 mineral micronutrients in cereal grains and up to 84 soil chemistry properties from GeoNutrition project surveys in Ethiopia and Malawi. The work provided insights on geospatial variation... Read More about Cereal grain mineral micronutrient and soil chemistry data from GeoNutrition surveys in Ethiopia and Malawi.

Rapeseed napin and cruciferin are readily digested by poultry (2016)
Journal Article
Kasprzak, M., Houdijk, J., Liddell, S., Davis, K., Olukosi, O., Kightley, S., …Wiseman, J. (2017). Rapeseed napin and cruciferin are readily digested by poultry. Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 101(4), 658-666. https://doi.org/10.1111/jpn.12576

Rapeseed proteins have been considered as being poorly digestible in the gut of non-ruminants. The aim of the study was to assess the digestibility of napin and cruciferin in ileal digesta of broiler chickens, testing sixteen samples of rapeseed co-p...
