Characterization and Bio-Accessibility Evaluation of Olive Leaf Extract-Enriched "Taralli".

Olive leaves are rich in many compounds precious for human health. Due to this property, the current study was aimed to valorize the extract from this by-product in a cereal-based food, very popular all around the world, the "taralli". To this aim, ultrasound-assisted extraction was applied to dried olive leaves to obtain the extract, used as "taralli" ingredient, instead of white wine.

Fish burger enriched by olive oil industrial by-product.

Oil industry produces large volume of waste, which represents a disposal and a potential environmental pollution problem. Nevertheless, they are also promising sources of compounds that can be recovered and used as valuable substances. The aim of this work is to exploit solid olive by-products, in particular dry olive paste flour (DOPF) coming from cultivar, to enrich fish burger and enhance the quality characteristics.
