Comparative Analysis of Grape Seed Oil, Linseed Oil, and a Blend: In Vivo Effects of Supplementation.

Grape seeds are rich in bioactive substances, including polyphenols, terpenoids, and phytosterols. Linseed ( L.) boasts a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), lignans, phytoestrogens, and soluble fibers, all contributing to its therapeutic potential.

Miniaturized 3D-Printed Cell Enables Water/Ethanol Quantification Using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy.

A miniaturized and low-cost electrochemical 3D-printed system for rapid and accurate quantification of ethanol content in ethanol fuel using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was developed. The monolithic design of the system incorporates insulating thermoplastic electrode separators, with only the cover being mobile, allowing for easy assembly and handling. The portable device, measuring approximately 26 × 24 mm, has a maximum capacity of 1 mL, making it suitable for lab-on-a-chip and portable analysis.

A fluorescence-based multivariate method for biodiesel quantification in undiluted diesel-biodiesel blends without sample preparation.

In this work, excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) were used in association with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) to assess biodiesel content in undiluted diesel-biodiesel blends (DBBs) without pre-sample preparation. EEMs were decomposed using the PARAFAC (EEMs-PARAFAC), and the loading values of the PARAFAC component as a function of biodiesel content in the blends were used to build an analytical model to quantify the biodiesel content in DBBs. The proposed model presenting a limit of detection (LOD) and a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 2.

Oxidative stability and elemental analysis of sunflower () edible oil produced in Brazil using a domestic extraction machine.

The consumption of regular vegetable oils has been linked to energy acquisition, nutritional benefits, health improvement, and the regulation of metabolic diseases. This study evaluated fatty acids composition, physicochemical, thermal, oxidative, and optical properties, and quantified trace elements in the sunflower oil extracted by a domestic cold-press machine. The oil presented linoleic (54.

Linseed, Baru, and Coconut Oils: NMR-Based Metabolomics, Leukocyte Infiltration Potential In Vivo, and Their Oil Characterization. Are There Still Controversies?

Different fatty acid proportions produce potential inflammatory and metabolic changes in organisms. However, the evidence for how each fatty acid mediates the metabolic pathway, and its lipid stability remains controversial. To resolve this controversy, the present study investigated the metabolic effects of cold-pressed linseed (LG), coconut (CG), and baru (BG) oils in comparison to those of soybean oil (SG) in mice, in terms of their oil characterization and stability.

Eco-Friendly Production of AuNPs and Their Impact on the Oil Oxidative Stability.

Vegetable oils have been used for different applications and, more recently, as an active host medium to obtain nanoparticles for employment in bionanotechnological applications. Nevertheless, oils are very susceptible to oxidation during production, storage, and transportation because of their chemical composition. Consequently, any modification in their production must be accompanied by an analysis of the oxidative stability.

Data on mineral composition, fatty acids, oxidative stability, UV-VIS spectra and fluorescence emission of the Dersani® and Sunflower® oils used as a cicatrizing agent.

Dersani® and sunflower® oils are used by the Brazilian population as a cicatrizing agent. However, data on physical and chemical properties of these oils are scarce. In this data article on oils, we determined a total of 14 fatty acids composition by gas chromatography (GC), as well as quantifying the elements contents (Ca, K, Mg, Al, Cr, Fe, Mn, Na, P, Se and Zn) using inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP OES).

Characterization and oxidative stability of oils and bioactive compounds of the fruits of Byrsonima cydoniifolia A. Juss. at different ripening stages.

Background: Fruits present high concentrations of bioactive compounds that are beneficial to health due to their antioxidant properties. New alternatives to vegetable oils with such properties have been studied. We determined the chemical compounds of Byrsonima cydoniifolia A.

Oxidative stability of sesame and flaxseed oils and their effects on morphometric and biochemical parameters in an animal model.

Background: Sesame and flaxseed oils, which are rich in essential n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, are widely consumed. We have determined the optical behavior with respect to the quality and identity of cold-pressed sesame and flaxseed oils. The effects of these oils and their combinations on metabolic parameters in animal models were also measured.
