    Agronomic biofortification of maize and beans in Kenya through selenium fertilization 

    Ngigi, Peter Biu; Lachat, Carl; Masinde, Peter Wafula; Laing, Gijs Du (Springer Netherlands, 2019)
    Deficiency in calcium, zinc, selenium, and iodine remains a major health issue in Africa. A selenium (Se) status survey conducted in central Kenya highlands revealed a high risk of dietary Se deficiency. This study ...

    Identification and Detection of Fungal Growth on Freeze‐dried Agaricus Bisporus using Spectra and Olfactory Sensors 

    Wang, Liuqing; Hu, Qiuhui; Pei, Fei; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi; Yang, Wenjian (Wiley Online Library, 2019)
    Fungal contamination in food products leads to mustiness, biochemical changes, and undesirable odors, which result in lower food quality and lower market value. To develop a rapid method for detecting fungi, hyperspectral ...

    Ultrahigh-Pressure Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole-Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry-Based Metabolomics Reveal the Mechanism of Methyl Jasmonate in Delaying the Deterioration of Agaricus bisporus 

    Yang, Wenjian; Wu, Yuanyue; Hu, Qiuhui; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi; Pei, Fei (2019)
    Conquering rapid postripeness and deterioration of Agaricus bisporus is quite challenging. We previously observed that methyl jasmonate (MeJA) pretreatment postponed the deterioration of A. bisporus, but the mechanism is ...

    Exogenous Bacterial Composition changes Dominate flavor Deterioration of dried Carrots during storage 

    Pu, Haoliang; Hu, Qiuhui; Wang, Liuqing; Pei, Fei; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi; Yang, Wenjian (Elsevier, 2019)
    Flavor deterioration is a serious problem in dried carrots during storage and is frequently accompanied by water absorption and bacterial growth. To explore the underlying mechanism of flavor deterioration, relationship ...

    Nanocomposite packaging regulates extracellular ATP and programed cell death in edible Mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) 

    Shi, Chong; Wu, Yuanyue; Fang, Donglu; Ma, Ning; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi; Hu, Qiuhui; Yang, Wenjian (Elsevier, 2019)
    Our previous study indicated that nanocomposite packaging material (Nano-PM) containing nano-Ag, nano-TiO2, nano-SiO2 and nanoattapulgite alleviated postharvest senescence of Flammulina velutipes by regulating respiration ...

    Identification of Bacterial Composition in Freeze-Dried Agaricus bisporus During Storage and the Resultant Odor Deterioration 

    Yang, Wenjian; Wang, Liuqing; Hu, Qiuhui; Pei, Fei; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi (Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019)
    Moisture absorption and bacterial growth are critical factors for quality deterioration of freeze-dried Agaricus bisporus. In order to explore the bacterial composition and the resultant odor changes in freeze-dried A. ...

    Nanocomposite Packaging Regulate Respiration and Energy Metabolism in Flammulina velutipes. 

    Yang, Wenjian; Shi, Chong; Hu, Qiuhui; Wu, Yuanyue; Fang, Donglu; Pei, Fei; Mariga, Alfred Mugambi (Elsevier, 2019)
    Energy metabolism is accompanied with postharvest senescence, deterioration and physiological disorder in Flammulina velutipes. In this study, nanocomposite packaging material (Nano-PM) inhibited rapid respiration thus ...

    Prevalence and Genotyping of Echinococcus Species from Livestock in Kajiado County, Kenya 

    Nungari, Lucy; Mbae, Cecilia; Gikunju, Joseph; Mulinge, Erastus; Kaburu, Timothy; Zeyhle, Eberhard; Magambo, Japhet (Hindawi, 2019)
    Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) is a widespread neglected zoonotic disease and is caused by the larval stage of the dog tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato. CE is more frequent in livestock-rearing areas and where people ...
