In addition, the increase in iron absorption was not accompanied by a change in the digesta’s pH or phytase activity, which could have negative effects on other digestive and absorptive properties. 51 Therefore, banana inulin-based therapeutics have good potential to reduce iron deficiency in humans and lower the burden of anemia in India.

Hastings and Wolf (1992). 106 HSA is in high demand worldwide—at over 500 tons per year—but there are several major problems facing its use. 108 Therefore, researchers have been seeking alternate ways to produce safe recombinant HSA (rHSA). One method to do so involves rice seeds, which are an effective means to produce recombinant proteins due to their ability to generate high levels of stable protein and be controlled well on a production scale. One study used a strong endosperm-specific promoter along with its signal peptide to target rHSA into protein storage vacuoles and enabled transcription of the HSA gene with by using rice-preferred gene codons.
