Mineral bio-accessibility and intrinsic saccharides in breakfast flakes manufactured from sprouted wheat [PDF]
Abstract The objective was to produce breakfast flakes by extrusion using whole meal from sprouted wheat to increase mineral bio-accessibility and provide intrinsic sweetness without compromising their textural properties. Resting the ingredient mixture containing whole meal from (sprouted) wheat at 50 °C and pH 3.8 for 1 h prior to flake production ...

Calcined Oyster Shell-Humic Complex as Soil Amendment to Remediate Cd- and As-Contaminated Soil
Soil acidification in the subtropical region reduces soil productivity and increases the bioavailability of heavy metal(loid)s in soil. Here 800 °C-calcined oyster shell and leonardite-derived humic substance were combined to form a Ca-humic complex to ...
