1. Faba bean foods: Structure and texture : Evaluation of faba bean component behaviours in different product matrices
Abstract : Faba bean (Vicia faba minor) is a cool-climate crop that could serve as a locally sourced sustainable ingredient in transition towards a more plant-based diet in temperate regions. Poor texture is one of the main aversion factors of plant-based foods, so this thesis characterised the functionality of faba bean components and their effect on structure and texture in different food matrices.

2. ARSENIC REMOVAL BY PHYTOFILTRATION AND SILICON TREATMENT : A POTENTIAL SOLUTION FOR LOWERING ARSENIC CONCENTRATIONS IN FOOD CROPS
Abstract : Use of arsenic-rich groundwater for crop irrigation can increase the arsenic (As) content in food crops and act as a carcinogen, compromising human health. Using aquatic plant based phytofiltration is a potential eco-technique for removing arsenic from water. READ MORE

3. Mixing patterns in Rushton-turbine-agitated reactors
Abstract : This Ph.D. Thesis concerns the study of mixing in Rushton turbine agitated reactors. In industrial (bio)reactors, mixing is recognised as a limiting factor that significantly affects the performance of the process. READ MORE

4. Synthesis of xyloglucan oligo- and polysaccharides with glycosynthase technology
Abstract : Xyloglucans are polysaccharides found as storage polymers in seeds and tubers, and as cross-linking glycans in the cell wall of plants. Their structure is complex with intricate branching patterns, which contribute to the physical properties of the polysaccharide including its binding to and interaction with other glycans such as cellulose.

5. Functionalised surfaces for bacterial discrimination
Abstract : Bacterial detection and identification is a critical step in many arenas, including food and water safety, clinical diagnostics, bioprocess control and biosecurity. Social hygiene has a direct correlation with the strict control of microorganisms in these fields. READ MORE
