Journal ArticleDOI
Microencapsulation stabilizes curcumin for efficient delivery in food applications
TL;DR: This study elucidates a promising method to encapsulateCurcumin in a chickpea (Cicer arietinum) protein matrix to improve the stability and bioavailability in the gut and can be used in the food industry as a protective coating for curcumin and as a slow release carrier in pharmaceutical industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of chickpea protein for encapsulation of folate to enhance nutritional potency and stability
TL;DR: Protein encapsulation is beneficial for improving the stability of folate in processed food items and can be used to prepare various types of nutriment and drug encapsulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rise of inorganic nanomaterial implementation in food applications
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the benefits, detriments, conveniences, and risks associated with inorganic nanomaterials in food applications are discussed, and a limited number of elements such as Zn, Al, Ti, Au, Ag, Si, Cu, Co, and Fe and their derivatives have been documented as possible INMs befitting food applications.

Aufbau Rules for Solvated Electron Precursors: Be(NH3)40,± Complexes and Beyond
Isuru R. Ariyarathna,Shahriar N. Khan,Filip Pawłowski,Joseph Vincent Ortiz,Evangelos Miliordos +4 more
TL;DR: These calculations reveal a new class of molecular entities, solvated electron precursors, with Aufbau rules that differ from their familiar hydrogenic counterparts and resemble those of jellium or nuclear-shell models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Activation of the C−H Bond in Methane by Single Platinum Atomic Anions
Gaoxiang Liu,Zhaoguo Zhu,Sandra M. Ciborowski,Isuru R. Ariyarathna,Evangelos Miliordos,Kit H. Bowen +5 more
TL;DR: This study presents the first example of methane activation by a single atomic anion, Pt- , by a synergy between anion photoelectron spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations, implying the rupture of a single C-H bond.
