Climate smart, underutilised, healthful future cereal: Protein content, hydration properties, starch digestibility and consumer liking of pearl millet-based Oyster mushroom crackers

Food Chemistry Advances, 2023
Pearl millet is an underutilised cereal. This study investigated the use of undervalued pearl millet grain in the manufacturing of value-added low sugar crackers that are protein-enhanced by the incorporation of Oyster mushroom.

DNA fingerprinting of pearls to determine their origins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
We report the first successful extraction of oyster DNA from a pearl and use it to identify the source oyster species for the three major pearl-producing oyster species Pinctada margaritifera, P. maxima and P. radiata. Both mitochondrial and nuclear gene

Sterols of the pearl-oyster. [PDF]

NIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1987
The sterols of pearl-oyster Pinctada martensi were isolated by preparative HPLC, and identi-fied by GC-MS and IR. The structures of 21 sterols were established. And the sterol composi-tion was determined by using GC. The major components were Δ5-sterols.

Growth and survival of Pinctada martensii (Dunker) postlarvae under concurrent variation in temperature, algal ration and stocking density

Aquaculture Reports, 2021
The growth and survival of pearl oyster postlarvae (Pinctada martensii) were studied under laboratory conditions. A face-centered central composite experimental design was used with 3 factors, temperature (18―34 °C), algal ration (5―100 cells μL―1) and ...
