Journal ArticleDOI
Plant sterols: biosynthesis, biological function and their importance to human nutrition.
TL;DR: Since the morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease have been dramatically reduced using cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins), the interest in plant sterols lies in their potential to act as a natural preventive dietary product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tocopherol, tocotrienol and plant sterol contents of vegetable oils and industrial fats
TL;DR: In this paper, the NP-HPLC with fluorescence detection (tocols) and GC-FID (plant sterols) were used to determine the tocopherol and tocotrienol contents of 14 vegetable and 9 industrial fats and oils available on the Finnish market in 2005.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The 10 selected rye samples comprising old populations and old and modern varieties from different ecological regions of Europe demonstrate high natural variation in their composition and show that landraces and old populations are useful genetic resources for plant breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fermentation-induced changes in the nutritional value of native or germinated rye

TL;DR: Tailored fermentation offers a tool to further increase the bioactive potential of wholemeal rye by increasing the levels of folates, free phenolic acids, total phenolic compounds, lignans and alkylresorcinols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blanching and long-term freezing affect various bioactive compounds of vegetables in different ways
