Excessive exposure leads to nutrient degradation or a plateau effect, they found. The paper also provides quantitative guidance. </p> <p>The researchers’ work supports efforts to address vitamin D deficiency, which affects between 30 and 50 per cent of the world’s population, as well as enhance the nutritional value of mushrooms more broadly. </p> Mon, 04 May 2026 14:00:59 +0000 admin 559330 at /nrs Macdonald Campus Undergraduate Orientation /nrs/channels/event/macdonald-campus-undergraduate-orientation-364287 <p>To help new undergraduates settle into campus life, Macdonald Campus hosts a number of orientation activities in late August.</p> Mon, 17 Mar 2025 20:52:38 +0000 admin 559325 at /nrs Study finds treating peanuts with cold plasma could make them less allergenic /nrs/channels/news/study-finds-treating-peanuts-cold-plasma-could-make-them-less-allergenic-372647 <p>Researchers at 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµÂ have found that briefly treating peanuts with cold plasma, an ionically charged gas that triggers chemical changes, reduces their potential to cause allergic reactions. The researchers say this is probably because the process causes changes to the protein structure, the part of the peanut that can trigger an immune response. The technology was also shown to improve functional properties important for food manufacturing. </p> Wed, 22 Apr 2026 14:16:33 +0000 admin 559324 at /nrs 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ opens state-of-the-art greenhouse and research platform /nrs/channels/news/mcgill-opens-state-art-greenhouse-and-research-platform-372434 <p>91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ has officially opened a new teaching greenhouse and advanced plant phenotyping facilities at its Macdonald Campus, marking a major investment in climate-focused agricultural education and research.
