digestion method.Zinc bioaccessibility was significantly decreased by germination (48h) of finger millet (38%) and green gram (44%), while iron bioaccessibility was increased by 62% (green gram), 39% (chickpea) and 20% (finger millet), concomitant with a reduction in tannin content. A...

The results of this study compare with similar magnetite-rich mineralization in the São Francisco craton in northeastern Brazil and enhance the correlation of pre-drift reconstructions of the São Francisco–Congo Cratons. This is a preview of subscription content, log in via an institution to ...
Finger millet, being rich source of essential minerals like iron and zinc, is an ideal model to identify candidate genes contributing to high grain iron content (GIC) and zinc content (GZC) in plants. Hence, finger millet diversity panel comprised of 202 genotypes was evalu...
This study is therefore focused on non-farming consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) for biofortified crops. Design/methodology/approach - Specifically, we elicited non-farming consumers' WTP a premium for the improved iron content (+30% iron) in a 1kg finger millet bag using a 2nd price ...

In vitro available zinc increased by 7.9 % in finger millet, by 4.8 % in white sorghum and by 5.9 % in maize flours, compared to respective total zinc content as a result of fortification. It was concluded that other dietary modification strategies that are being carried out for the ...

coracana grains recovered from Kakapel rock shelter in western Kenya. We also carried out carbonization experiments on modern grains in order to directly compare these archaeological specimens to extant landraces. We found that finger millet is only well preserved when carbonized at temperatures lower ...
The present work analysed the relationship between the antinutrient content, and also iron and zinc bioaccessibility, in home-made MNP-fortified complementary feeding porridges refined with white rice, maize, white sorghum, finger millet, pearl millet, Irish potato, and banana samples...
