Almond oil is used in many cosmetic products as a snack, in confectionery (marzipan, "turrón", nougat), food products (almond milk, ice cream, chocolate), culinary recipes and also cosmetic base. For surveying the effects of almond genotype and growing location on oil percentage of oil seed content and fatty acid of almond, seeds of 6 almond cultivars: Ferragnes, Tuono, Azar, Sahand, Nonpareil ...

Lactobacillus plantarum is frequently found in the fermentation of plant-derived food products, where hydroxycinnamoyl esters are abundant. L. plantarum WCFS1 cultures were unable to hydrolyze hydroxycinnamoyl esters; however, cell extracts from the strain partially hydrolyze methyl ferulate and methyl p-coumarate. In order to discover whether the protein Lp_0796 is the enzyme responsible for t...

Reusable in RCM reactions up to 10th turn. Catalysts be stored under air atmosphere 6 months without any significant activity loss. High performance ethenolysis of fatty acid methyl esters at atmospheric ethylene pressure.

Olefin cross-metathesis has been demonstrated to be a modular pathway for synthesis of a series of functionalized cellulose esters. As a proof of concept, cellulose acetate was acylated with two terminally olefinic acid chlorides, pent-4-enoyl chloride and undec-10-enoyl chloride, providing olefin-terminated cellulose esters with different side-chain lengths. These ω-unsaturated cellulose ester...

In a modern day world alternative source of energy are given importance due to gradual depletion of fossil fuels reserves vegetable oils can be used as an alternative to diesel in CI engines. The use of vegetable oils in CI engine results in low CO and HC emissions compared to conventional diesel fuel. The present study covers the various aspects of biodiesels fuel derived from cottonseed oil. ...

Biodiesel from most agricultural feedstocks has flow properties that are prone to startup and operability problems during cold weather. Biodiesel from soybean oil is generally a mixture of long-chain fatty acid alkyl esters composed of 0.15–0.20 mass fraction saturated esters (melting point [MP] 0 C) mixed with unsaturated esters (MP \ 0 C). This work investigates the crystallization properties...

Biodiesel is usually produced from food-grade vegetable oil using trans-esterification process. As an effective factor on the biodiesel characteristics of the biodiesel is the kind of feedstock which is used, so finding a proper feedstock for using initially has an important role for different places. So, in this research, disposal substances of Capparis Spinosa are used as a feedstock for prod...

1. Chromatography on silica gel, combined with infrared spectrometry, has been used to analyse mixtures of bile acids. 2. The results obtained by applying this method to an ox bile-salt preparation are described. Methyl lithocholate (methyl 3-hydroxycholanate) (1.8 mg.), methyl deoxycholate (methyl 3:12-dihydroxycholanate) (38 mg.), methyl chenodeoxycholate (methyl 3:7-dihydroxycholanate) (0-6 ...

Rat liver peroxisomes contain three acyl-CoA oxidases: palmitoyl-CoA oxidase, which oxidizes the CoA esters of straight chain fatty acids and prostaglandins; pristanoyl-CoA oxidase, which oxidizes the CoA esters of 2-methyl-branched fatty acids (e.g. pristanic acid); and trihydroxycoprostanoyl-CoA oxidase, which oxidizes the CoA esters of the bile acid intermediates di- and trihydroxycoprostani...
