An experimental investigation was performed on blend extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) from different cultivars and EVOO from different olive monovarieties (Coratina, Leccino, Maiatica, Ogliarola) with the aim to evaluate the possibility of estimating the perceived bitterness intensity by using chemical indices, such as the total phenol content and the compounds responsible for oil bitterness measured spectrophotometrically at 225 nm (K225 value), as bitterness predictors in different EVOO. Therefore, a bitterness predictive model, based on the relationship between the perceived bitterness intensity of the selected stimuli and the chosen chemicals parameters has been built and validated. The results indicated that the oil bitterness intensity could be satisfactorily predicted by using the K225 values of oil samples.

The presence of food in extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) during simultaneous storage might bring additional changes to the oil's composition and quality. To investigate this matter, the influence of dried tomatoes on the oxidative and hydrolytic parameters, fatty acids, phenolic and volatile composition, antioxidant activity, pigments, and sensory attributes of EVOO during six months of simultaneous storage at room temperature (RT; 22 ± 2 °C) and +4 °C, was studied. Lower storage temperature reduced the hydrolytic and oxidative degradation of oils when dried tomatoes were immersed.

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is one of the main daily food items consumed around the world, particularly in the Mediterranean region, and it has unique organoleptic properties. This study aims to determine the best frying conditions of EVOO supplemented with natural exogenous antioxidants enriched in hydroxytyrosol (HTyr) and its derivatives from olive fruit extract (OFE) to conserve its positive sensorial attributes while minimizing its sensorial defects, in particular, rancidity under high thermal processes. In this study, an experienced panel assessed the sensory attributes of nine EVOO varieties, olive oil 0.

Background: This study investigates the effect of microemulsions of 0.8% Ocimum basilicum essential oil (MOBO) on the cooking quality and shelf life of snakehead fillets using different impregnation methods (air environment treatment, vacuum impregnation, ultrasonic impregnation and vacuum impregnation with ultrasonic-assisted). Basil essential oil, recognized for its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, is utilized in a microemulsion form to enhance its efficacy and application in food preservation.

The demand for marine bioactive compounds as therapeutic agents in supplements or functional foods has increased. However, their instability, bitter taste, and potential degradation during digestion have hindered their widespread use. To overcome these problems, a functional supplement powder was produced using the encapsulation technique of nanoliposomes containing shrimp lipid extract, fish oil (FO), and fish protein hydrolysate.
