Presentation / Conference Contribution
POHL, F., GOUA, M., BERMANO, G., RUSSELL, W.R., MACIEL, P. and KONG THOO LIN, P. 2016. Study into the polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of rapeseed pomace extracts. Presented at 2016 Nutrition Society's Scottish section meeting: phytochemicals and health: new perspectives on plant based nutrition, 21-22 March 2016, Edinburgh, UK.

Rapeseed pomace (RSP) is a waste product obtained after edible oil production from Brassica napus. This study aimed to determine the polyphenol content, radical scavenging activity, ferric iron reducing antioxidant power and the oxygen-radical absorb...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
LEIGHTON, D., GOUA, M., DOLAN, E., BURGESS, K. and BERMANO, G. 2015. Can selenium supplementation modify oxidative stress in-vitro? A role for selenium supplementation in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Journal of inflammation [online], 12(Supplement 1): abstracts from the 1st Annual meeting of the Scottish Society of Cytomics (SCC), 25 September 2014, Aberdeen, UK, article P7. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1186/1476-9255-12-S1-P7

Two thirds of the UK population are either overweight or obese (body mass index (BMI) 25-29.9 and >30 kg/m2 respectively) and are typically characterised by systemic oxidative stress (OS); deemed to play a key role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) dev...

The role of selenium supplementation in cardiovascular disease prevention: an in vitro study to identify the molecular mechanism(s). (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
LEIGHTON, D., GOUA, M., DOLAN, E., BURGESS, K. and BERMANO, G. 2015. The role of selenium supplementation in cardiovascular disease prevention: an in vitro study to identify the molecular mechanism(s). Presented at the 2015 Nutrition Society Scottish section meeting: diet, gene regulation and metabolic disease, 25-26 March 2015, Aberdeen, UK.

Obesity is a worldwide epidemic, with two thirds of the UK population either overweight or obese (body mass index (BMI) 25–29·9 and >30 kg/m2 respectively). Obesity is characterised by systemic oxidative stress (OS), which itself results from chronic...

A comparison of the acute oxidative stress response of three different modified high intensity interval training (m-HIIT) protocols on sedentary overweight/obese young males. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
LEIGHTON, D., BURGESS, K., DOLAN, E., GOUA, M. and BERMANO, G. 2015. A comparison of the acute oxidative stress response of three different modified high intensity interval training (m-HIIT) protocols on sedentary overweight/obese young males. Poster presented at the 2015 Scottish cardiovascular forum (SCF 2015), 07 February 2015, Edinburgh, UK.

Two thirds of the UK population are overweight/obese (OW/OB) and typically characterised by systemic oxidative stress (OS); resulting from chronically high reactive oxidative species (ROS) formation and a reduced antioxidant status. Oxidative stress,...
