Flaxseed oil cake was subjected to fermentation with (DSM 1964 and ATCC 64063), and the phytate (InsP) content, inositol phosphate profile and bioavailability of essential minerals were studied. Flaxseed oil cake had a phytate mass fraction of 13.9 mg/g. A 96-hour fermentation of flaxseed oil cake by DSM 1964 and ATCC 64063 decreased the InsP content by 48 and 33%, respectively. The strains had different phytate-degrading activities: fermentation of flaxseed oil cake with DSM 1964 was more advantageous, yielding InsP as a predominating -inositol compound, while fermentation with ATCC 64603 produced predominantly InsP. Solid-state fermentation of flaxseed oil cake enhanced bioavailability of calcium by 14, magnesium by 3.3 and phosphorus by 2-4%.

Over the past decades, emerging bioplastics have attracted much interest from the scientific and industrial communities because of public concerns about environmental problems and sustainable development. In this study, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was toughened by ductile biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and biosourced plasticizer epoxidized linseed oil (ELO), and a chain-extending agent (CEA) was added to promote the compatibility and toughness of the bio-blends. It was shown that "in situ" grafted polymers were created in the bio-blends with the aid of CEA, greatly enhancing the compatibility and ductility of the compatibilized blends.

An applicable and highly efficient methodology for the preparation of medium- and long-chain triglycerides (MLCTs) via the enzymatic transesterification of coconut oil with long-chain fatty acid triglycerides, named camellia oil, olive oil, linseed oil, algal oil, and rapeseed oil, respectively, has been proposed. The novel system achieved equilibrium in 5 min, and the MLCT yield ranged from 78.7 to 83.

Liver fibrosis is a significant contributor to global morbidity and mortality, making the identification of non-toxic natural therapies to slow its progression essential. This study evaluated the anti-fibrotic potential of a nutraceutical blend comprising extra virgin olive oil, linseed oil, and ginger extract, formulated in both emulsion and nanoemulsion forms, using a rat model of liver fibrosis. Nanoemulsions were prepared using the ultrasonication technique, and their particle size and stability were analyzed via the DLS method.

Purpose: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common chronic inflammatory skin disease that severely impairs patient's life quality and represents significant therapeutic challenge due to its pathophysiology arising from skin barrier dysfunction. Topical corticosteroids, the mainstay treatment for mild to moderate AD, are usually formulated into conventional dosage forms that are impeded by low drug permeation, resulting in high doses with consequent adverse effects, and also lack properties that would strengthen the skin barrier. Herein, we aimed to develop biomimetic lamellar lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs), offering a novel alternative to conventional AD treatment.

The effect of ozone treatment on the sensory quality, aroma compounds, phytosterols, and phytosterol oxidation products (POP) in stored plant oils was studied. Cold-pressed flaxseed, cold-pressed rapeseed, and refined rapeseed oils were treated with ozone, air, and nitrogen, then subjected to accelerated storage at 60 °C for 6 days. The sensory evaluation revealed that ozone significantly influenced the sensory profile, with notable cucumber and green-grassy aromas.
