Change in Sunflower Oil Quality and Safety Depending on Number of Deodorisation Cycles Used.

Deodorisation remains a beneficial aspect of the processing of edible oils and fats and is required during the first refining and after transportation, storage, and/or further processing, such as interesterification. While there is awareness among the scientific community that repeated deodorisation may negatively impact product quality, according to some technical and processing requirements, oils, fats, and their blends can still be treated with up to 3-4 cycles of deodorisation. However, the precise changes caused by sequential deodorising processes remain unknown.

Hardware-accelerated integrated optoelectronic platform towards real-time high-resolution hyperspectral video understanding.

Pixelated High- Metasurfaces for in Situ Biospectroscopy and Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Classification of Lipid Membrane Photoswitching Dynamics.

Nanophotonic devices excel at confining light into intense hot spots of electromagnetic near fields, creating exceptional opportunities for light-matter coupling and surface-enhanced sensing. Recently, all-dielectric metasurfaces with ultrasharp resonances enabled by photonic bound states in the continuum (BICs) have unlocked additional functionalities for surface-enhanced biospectroscopy by precisely targeting and reading out the molecular absorption signatures of diverse molecular systems. However, BIC-driven molecular spectroscopy has so far focused on end point measurements in dry conditions, neglecting the crucial interaction dynamics of biological systems.

Real-time simultaneous refractive index and thickness mapping of sub-cellular biology at the diffraction limit.

Mapping the cellular refractive index (RI) is a central task for research involving the composition of microorganisms and the development of models providing automated medical screenings with accuracy beyond 95%. These models require significantly enhancing the state-of-the-art RI mapping capabilities to provide large amounts of accurate RI data at high throughput. Here, we present a machine-learning-based technique that obtains a biological specimen's real-time RI and thickness maps from a single image acquired with a conventional color camera.

Analysis of Oleogel Volatile Profile Formation under Ultrasonic Treatment.

Under certain conditions, ultrasonic treatment of certain foods and ingredients can contribute to the appearance of an extraneous odor, which is not usual for them, especially in fat-containing products. Since the food sector uses high-intensity ultrasound to control the crystallization of fats, the development of foreign smells and secondary fat oxidation products may impact the quality and safety of such items. In this work, we studied the volatile compounds' profiles of oleogels structured with individual fractions of beeswax using ultrasonic treatment.

Origin of CMS-PET1 cytotype in cultivated sunflower: A new insight.

The vast majority of commercial sunflower hybrids worldwide are produced using cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) of the PET1 type, resulting from the interspecific hybridization of Helianthus petiolaris with Helianthus annuus. Due to the fact that CMS-PET1 was not previously detected in wild sunflower, it was believed that this cytotype could arise during interspecific hybridization and is specific solely for cultivated sunflower. In this study, the open reading frame, orfH522, associated with the CMS-PET1 phenotype, was revealed for the first time in the 3'-flanking region of the mitochondrial atpA gene in wild H.

Broadband vectorial ultrathin optics with experimental efficiency up to 99% in the visible region via universal approximators.

Integrating conventional optics into compact nanostructured surfaces is the goal of flat optics. Despite the enormous progress in this technology, there are still critical challenges for real-world applications due to the limited operational efficiency in the visible region, on average lower than 60%, which originates from absorption losses in wavelength-thick (≈ 500 nm) structures. Another issue is the realization of on-demand optical components for controlling vectorial light at visible frequencies simultaneously in both reflection and transmission and with a predetermined wavefront shape.

[Alkaline transesterification CG-MS/MS method of monochlorpropanediol and glycidyl esters' determination in some edible fats, oils and fat blends on Russian market].

Monochlorpropanediol fatty acid esters (MCPDE) and glycidyl fatty acid esters (GE) are mainly considered to be processing contaminants and their concentration can rise during high temperature refining and deodorization of edible oils. Free forms formed during digestive hydrolysis of esters such as 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD), 2-MCPD and glycidol can provoke a negative effect on human health. Therefore the quantitative determination of MCPDE and GE in edible oils, fats and fat blends is needed.

Generalized Maxwell projections for multi-mode network Photonics.

The design of optical resonant systems for controlling light at the nanoscale is an exciting field of research in nanophotonics. While describing the dynamics of few resonances is a relatively well understood problem, controlling the behavior of systems with many overlapping states is considerably more difficult. In this work, we use the theory of generalized operators to formulate an exact form of spatio-temporal coupled mode theory, which retains the simplicity of traditional coupled mode theory developed for optical waveguides.
