Objective: To optimize extraction condition of degumming from flax seed by the response surface method.

Methods: The central composite design-response surface method selected the best technology and forecasting analysis with the ratio of material to liquid, sodium chloride dosage, soaks time as the independent variable and flax seed dry rubber weight for the dependent variable, through to the level of the independent variable multiple linear regression and binomial fitting.

Results: The optimum process condition was as follows: ratio of liquid to materials was 37:1, sodium chloride dosage was 2 g, soaks time was 120 min.

Conclusion: The method is simple, reasonable, stable and predictability.

January 2025

Department of Food Technology and Assessment, Institute of Food Sciences, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Str. Nowoursynowska 159C, 02-776 Warsaw, Poland.

Article Synopsis
  • Oil cakes, a byproduct of oilseed processing, have high fat and protein content, making them valuable in animal feed and biotechnological applications.
  • The article explores using five types of oil cakes to produce GDDL, a cyclic ester with a creamy-peach aroma, focusing on rapeseed cake due to its high oleic acid content.
  • The biotransformation process involves three steps and successfully produces about 1.7 g of GDDL/dm, demonstrating the potential for waste valorization and supporting circular economy practices in food processing.

The road of lipid migration in flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) during germination.

February 2025

Research Center of Grain and Oil Functionalized Processing in Universities of Shaanxi Province, College of Food Science and Engineering, Northwest A&F University, 22 Xinong Road, Yangling 712100, Shaanxi, PR China. Electronic address:

Lipids are essential sources of carbon and energy during flaxseed germination; however, the dynamic changes in key lipid metabolites, pathways, and their locations remain unclear. This study revealed that oil bodies migrated from well-distributed locations to the cell wall between 0-2 d, with cell contours gradually blurring during 2-3 d, initiating the germination process. Subsequently, the order of oil body migration was leaf > stem > root during 4-7 d.

Lipases have catalytic capacity in various processes such as hydrolysis. Those derived from plant sources, such as linseed, offer an economical alternative. The immobilization process facilitates the recovery and reuse of lipase, providing advantages such as resistance to high temperatures and difficulties in recovering and reusing free lipases, which makes product separation difficult.

The influence of pectins and cellulose in the mechanical and adhesive properties of seed mucilage.

J Exp Bot

January 2025

Department of Functional Morphology and Biomechanics, Zoological Institute, Kiel University, Am Botanischen Garten 1-9, 24118 Kiel, Germany.

Several plant seeds release a mucilaginous envelope through hydration, rich in pectins and stabilized by cellulose fibers. This mucilage aids in seed protection, development, and adhesion for dispersal. This study aimed to separate the effects of pectins and cellulose fibers by using pectinase to remove mucilage pectins, leaving cellulose arrays, and performing wet and dry pull-off force measurements on seeds of three plant species: Salvia hispanica (Chia), Collomia grandiflora (Collomia) and Linum usitatissimum (Flax).

Seed cycling therapy (SCT) involves the consumption of specific seeds during the follicular and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle to help balance reproductive hormones. This study aimed to investigate the effects of SCT on healthy female Wistar albino rats to prevent hormonal imbalances. For SCT, a seed mixture (SM1) consisting of flax, pumpkin, and soybeans (estrogenic seeds) was administered at doses of 5.
