A new antioxidant lipid (AL) was synthesized from rainbow trout () belly oil and cold-pressed maqui (CPM) ( (Mol.) Stuntz) seed oil via enzymatic interesterification using in supercritical CO medium. A Box-Behnken design with 15 experiments was employed, with the independent variables being the following: belly oil/CPM oil ratio (10/90, 50/50, and 90/10, /), supercritical CO temperature (40.

Article Synopsis
- * Four groups of male C57BL/6 mice were supplemented with either control diet or HFD, with either sunflower oil or maqui oil, over a 12-week period.
- * Results showed that MO supplementation led to significant reductions in visceral fat, liver fat infiltration, and certain liver enzyme levels, indicating its potential to combat fatty liver disease and suggesting further research for human health applications.
This study focused on the oil extraction from freeze-dried maqui () by supercritical fluid extraction with carbon dioxide (SFE-CO). The basic objective was to optimize the oil yield and the tocopherol concentration. A Box/Behnken experimental design was developed with three processing variables: supercritical pressure (74, 187, and 300 bar), temperature (35, 48, and 60 °C), and extracting time (30, 135, and 240 min).
