Taylor, Janet; Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Potgieter, Marnie; Kallmeyer, Karlien; Naidoo, Vinny; Pepper, Michael Sean; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (Wiley, 2015-08)Kafirin, the sorghum prolamin protein, like its maize homologue zein, can be made into micropatticles and films and potentially used as a biomaterial. Zein has good bio- and cytocompatibility. Kafirin could be advantageous ...

Taylor, Janet; Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Muhiwa, Peter J.; Oguntoyinbo, Segun I.; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (Elsevier, 2018-04-15)Zeins of differing sub-class composition much more readily formed visco-elastic masses in water or acetic acid solutions than equivalent kafirin preparations. Visco-elastic masses could be formed from both zein and kafirin ...

Taylor, Janet; Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (American Association of Cereal Chemists, 2013-07)Despite much research, there are very few commercial prolamin bio-plastics. The major reason, apart from their high cost, is that they have inferior functional properties compared to synthetic polymer plastics. This is ...

Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; De Kock, Henrietta Letitia; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (Elsevier, 2011-12)Despite nutritional advantages, the functional quality of cereal foods tends to decline when fortified with legumes. Traditional African cowpea-fortified sorghum foods were evaluated using instrumental and descriptive ...

Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; De Kock, Henrietta Letitia; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (Elsevier, 2011-02)Protein malnutrition is a problem in Africa where sorghum is a staple foodstuff. Improvement in the protein quality of traditional African sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) foods through the addition of cowpea (Vigna ...

Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Taylor, Janet; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall) (American Chemical Society, 2011)Improvement in the water stability and other related functional properties of thin (<50 µm) karirin protein films was investigated. Thin conventional kafirin films and kafirin microparticle films were prepared by casting ...

Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Duneas, Nicolaas; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall); Taylor, Janet (American Chemical Society, 2012-08)Vacuolated spherical kafirin microparticles with a mean diameter of 5 μm can be formed from an acidic solution with water addition. Three-dimensional scaffolds for hard tissue repair require large structures with a high ...

Anyango, Joseph Ochieng; Taylor, J.R.N. (John Reginald Nuttall); Taylor, Janet (American Chemical Society, 2013-11)The possible importance of the cysteine-rich γ-prolamin in kafirin and zein functionality has been neglected. The role of γ-kafirin in organized microstructures was investigated in microparticles. Residual kafirin (total ...
