This metadata record and it's attached files make statements about the kinds of data collected as part of this research, and set out policies for governance of that data, now and in the future.Description: Project running a clinical trial aimed at identifying and validating the health benefits of Greenshell mussels, specifically looking at their potential anti-inflammatory qualities for improved joint and bone health and increased mobility. This clinical trial was conducted to determine bioavailability of fatty acid between different Greenshell™ mussel formats (oil, powder, food ingredient and half-shell unprocessed whole mussel). The wider project also included: measurement of the biochemical changes in composition of GSM over an annual cycle,development of rapid analytical methods for measuring GSM composition by near-infrared technologies (NIR),development of an in-vivo model in rats to assess GSM effects on metabolic syndrome (obesity), inflammation, osteoarthrosis and osteoporosis,development of new food formats that contain GSM
