Development of an antioxidant formula based on peanut by-products and effects on sensory properties and aroma stability of fortified peanut snacks during storage.

Background: An antioxidant formula based on peanut skins and hulls was developed and characterized for total and single polyphenols, as well as antioxidant power, considering the contribution provided by each peanut by-product. Subsequently, it was evaluated for its effect on the sensory properties and aroma stability of peanut bars over a 100-day period. To this purpose, snacks fortified, or not, with the natural additive were experimentally produced.

Solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography applied to the characterization of lemon wax, a waste product from citrus industry.

A novel application of SPME-GC and UHPLC is presented for the elucidation of an unexplored citrus by-product, namely lemon wax. In view of the current environmental protection strategies, directed toward reuse and/or recovery of waste products, this study aimed to evaluate a possible utilization of a discarded fraction from citrus fruits processing. Headspace SPME coupled with GC-MS and GC-FID allowed determining a residual amount (162.

Combination of separation and spectroscopic analytical techniques: application to compositional analysis of a minor citrus species.

The composition of juice and essential oil of Citrus limetta Risso was investigated. Multidimensional and enantio-gas chromatography were used for the elucidation of the volatile profile and the assessment of enantiomeric distribution. Predominant compounds were linalyl acetate (13.
