Objective: To optimize the formulation of Chinese herbs' volatile oil micro emulsion.
Methods: Sreened the formulation of blank micro-emulsion and the formulation of micro-emulsion contained volatile oil by means of pseudo-ternary phase diagram.
Results: System of isopropyl myristate, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, absolute ethyl alcohol and water could formed the largest area of micro-emulsion. The optimal formulation of micro-emulsion contained volatile oil was: volatile oil consisted of 2.852%, isopropyl myristate 6.65%, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil 30.42%, absolute ethyl alcohol 7.605% and water 52.47%.
Conclusions: Using pseudo-ternary phase diagram to optimize the formulation of Chinese herbs' micro-emulsion is scientific and feasible. The volatile oil's solubility is also increased by made of oil-in-water type micro-emulsion and insured the stability.

This study investigates the phenolic compounds (PC), volatile compounds (VC), and fatty acids (FA) of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) derived from the Turkish olive variety "Sarı Ulak", along with ADMET, DFT, molecular docking, and gene network analyses of significant molecules identified within the EVOO. Chromatographic methods (GC-FID, HPLC) were employed to characterize FA, PC, and VC profiles, while quality parameters, antioxidant activities (TAC, ABTS, DPPH) were assessed via spectrophotometry. The analysis revealed a complex composition of 40 volatile compounds, with estragole, 7-hydroxyheptene-1, and 3-methoxycinnamaldehyde as the primary components.

Emission rates for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been quantified from frying, spice and herb cooking, and cooking a chicken curry, using real-time selected-ion flow-tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) for controlled, laboratory-based experiments in a semi-realistic kitchen. Emissions from 7 different cooking oils were investigated during the frying of wheat flatbread (puri). These emissions were dominated by ethanol, octane, nonane and a variety of aldehydes, including acetaldehyde, heptenal and hexanal, and the average concentration of acetaldehyde (0.
