Saponins from edible legumes: chemistry, processing, and health benefitsJohn Shi
Guelph Food Research Center, Agriculture and Agri Food Canada, Guelph, Ontario, Canada
J Med Food 7:67-78. 2004..An optimum thermal process can increase the stability and maintain the saponins in canned bean products, which is useful for assisting the food industry to improve thermal processing technology and enhance bean product quality...
Polyphenolics in grape seeds-biochemistry and functionalityJohn Shi
Food Research Center, Agriculture and Agri Food Canada, Guelph, Canada
J Med Food 6:291-9. 2003..The most abundant phenolic compounds isolated from grape seed are catechins, epicatechin, procyanidin, and some dimers and trimers...
Antioxidative properties of lycopene and other carotenoids from tomatoes: synergistic effectsJohn Shi
Food Research Program, Agriculture and Agri Food Canada, 93 Stone Road West, Guelph, Ontario N1G 5C9, Canada
Biofactors 21:203-10. 2004..The carotenoid mixtures were more efficient in protecting liposome from oxidation than the individual carotenoid. Mixtures of lycopene and vitamin E appear to have the greatest synergistic antioxidant activity...
