Fruit pomace remaining after juice extraction is still a source of bioactive compounds. Especially rich in these compounds is the pomace from blackcurrant fruit and from fruits of little-known horticultural plants, like: rowan, rosehip and elderberry. The addition of fruit pomace to bakery and confectionery products, especially to those made of white flour, may significantly enrich their compos...

Postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) are recognized as atherogenic particles whose lipid composition and function can be modified by the composition of dietary oils. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that minor components of pomace olive oil (POMACE) can not only change the composition of postprandial TRL but also affect the clearance of triglyceride (TG) molecular sp...

Grape (Vitis vinifera L. var. Albariño) and mulberry (Morus nigra L.) seeds pomace were characterized in terms of tocopherols, organic acids, phenolic compounds bioactive properties. Higher contents tocopherols (28 ± 1 mg/100 g fw) obtained mulberry, whilst grape richer acids (79 4 fw). The analysis hydroethanolic extracts characterised by catechin oligomers (36.0 0.3 mg/g) ellagic acid derivat...

The costly disposal of the semisolid residual pomace generated in the two phase extraction used in modern olive mills is causing serious problems to the small oil producers of rural southeastern Spain. Composting may be a viable alternative since complementary residues are usually available in these areas to prepare an adequate starting mixture. In this work, four different combinations of resi...

BACKGROUND Olive pomace, as the main by-product of the olive oil industry, is recently recycled as fermentation substrate for enzyme production. OBJECTIVES Actinobacteria isolates were separated from an Algerian soil under olive pomace cultivation and were evaluated for their lignocellulolytic enzymes production. MATERIALS AND METHODS Isolates of Actinobacteria were separated from soils aro...
