    • Valencia, Pedro; Flores, Sebastián; Wilson, Lorena; Illanes, Andrés (Elsevier, 2012-01)
      A mathematical model is presented for the kinetically controlled synthesis of cephalexin that describes the heterogeneous reaction–diffusion process involved in a batch reactor with glyoxyl-agarose immobilized penicillin ...
    • Gaitán, Diego; Flores, Sebastián; Saavedra, Pía; Miranda, Constanza; Olivares, Manuel; Arredondo, Miguel; López de Romaña, Daniel; Lönnerdal, Bo; Pizarro Aguirre, Fernando (2011)
      Calcium is the only known component in the diet that may affect absorption of both nonheme and heme iron. However, the evidence for a calcium effect on iron absorption mainly comes from studies that did not isolate the ...
    • Weinborn, Valerie; Pizarro Aguirre, Fernando; Olivares Grohnert, Manuel; Brito, Alex; Arredondo Olguín, Miguel; Flores, Sebastián; Valenzuela Venegas, Carolina (MDPI AG, 2015)
      The aim of this study is to determine the effect of proteins from cereals and legumes on heme iron (Fe) absorption. The absorption of heme Fe without its native globin was measured. Thirty adult females participated in two ...
    • Pizarro Aguirre, Fernando; Olivares Grohnert, Manuel; Valenzuela Venegas, Carolina; Brito, Alex; Weinborn, Valerie; Flores, Sebastián; Arredondo Olguín, Miguel (Elsevier, 2016)
      Forty-five women (35-45 year) were randomly assigned to three iron (Fe) absorption sub-studies, which measured the effects of dietary animal proteins on the absorption of heme Fe. Study 1 was focused on heme, red blood ...
    • Mendiburo, María José; Flores, Sebastián; Pizarro Aguirre, Fernando; Arredondo Olguín, Miguel Armando (2006)
      Heme oxygenase-1 is a microsomal enzyme that, when induced by stress, protects the cells from oxidative injury. Heme oxygenase-1 participates in the cleavage of the heme ring producing biliverdin, CO and ferrous Fe. The ...
    • Arredondo Olguín, Miguel; Mendiburo Seguel, María José; Flores, Sebastián; Singleton, Steven T.; Garrick, Michael D. (Springer Science+Business Media, 2014)
      Divalent Metal Transporter 1 (DMT1) is an apical Fe transporter in the duodenum and is involved in endosomal Fe export. Four protein isoforms have been described for DMT1, two from mRNA with an iron responsive element ...
