Wheat straw is the major crop residue in European countries which makes it the most promising material for bioconversion into biofuels. However, cellulose and hemicellulose are protected with lignin, so delignification is an inevitable phase in lignocellulose processing. The organisms predominantly responsible for its degradation are white-rot fungi and among them Trametes species represent pro...

This study was aimed to determine the acylglycerols composition, quality characteristics, and protective role of dietary pumpkin seed oil (PSO) in rabbits. PSO was thermally oxidized and analyzed for quality characteristics and acylglycerols composition using reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD). Oxidized and un-oxidized oil samples were fe...

Lipid emulsions in parenteral nutrition’s consist of two immiscible liquids described as oil in water phase. The oils in the emulsions can start to oxidize and make it become rancid. The oxidation can be measured for peroxide value, anisidine value and for free fatty acids (FFAs) as primaryand secondary oxidation products. This master thesis presents an analytical method used for analysis of ox...

The purpose of the present study was to examine the physico-chemical characteristics of Moringa oleifera seeds and seed oil from a wild provenance of Pakistan. The Moringa seeds harvested from the forests of Kohat district of NWFP exhibited an oil yield of 34.80%. Protein, fiber, moisture and ash contents were 31.65, 7.54, 8.90 and 6.53%, respectively. The extracted M. oleifera seed oil reveale...

Title: CHARACTERIZATION OF OLIVE OILS COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES Shane Adam Ardo, M.S., 2005 Directed By: Associate Professor Liangli Yu, Department of Nutrition and Food Science This research examined 30 olive oils commercially available in the United States for their fatty acid composition, oxidative stability, and antioxidant capacities. The olive oils in this study differed...

This study systematically established the most effective refining process for Moringa oleifera (MO) kernel oil. Acid degumming (20.33 ± 1.37 ppm) removed significantly greater phosphorus than water (31.18 0.90 ppm). Neutralization was more deodorization in decreasing acid (0.06 mg KOH/g) and p-Anisidine (p-AV, 0.36 0.03) values of Besides improving its color properties, acid-activated bleaching...

Oxidative stability of chia seed oil enriched with oregano (Origanum vulgare L.) and yarrow (Achillea millefolium) extracts at different concentrations (600, 1200, 1800 ppm) was evaluated under accelerated oxidation conditions for 5 days. The total phenolic compounds antioxidant activity extract were higher than the extract. With decreasing increasing time, oxidative decreased significantly ( <...

Background: Sohan is an Iranian traditional brittle confection which its ingredients are susceptible to oxidation and microbial contamination during storage. This experimental study was designed to determine the effect of damask rose (Rosa damascena Mill.) extract on some chemical, microbial, and sensory properties of Sohan during storage at 25 &deg;C. Methods: The Sohan ingredients were mixed...
