Three criteria have been suggested for the identification of food vegetable oils: the ratio of the summary area of triglyceride peaks and the summary area of the reference peaks; a set of peaks of critical pairs of oil triglycerides and their relationship expressed as the percent of the maximum peak. To prove the correctness of the identification a previously known oil is analyzed and its characteristics are compared to those of the oil under study. A mixture of saturated triglycerides with equivalent carbon numbers 30-56 is used as a reference one. A total of 16 vegetable oils have been identified with the use of the method suggested.

Concerns over malnutrition, synthetic additives and post-harvest waste highlight the need for innovation in food technology, turning towards underutilized crops. Plant-based beverages offer sustainable dietary alternatives and the increasing demand for such products makes the exploration of native crops particularly relevant. This study focuses on the development of a beverage derived from the native South American fruit kurugua (Sicana odorifera), combined with chia oil (Salvia hispanica L.

Unlabelled: is an acid-fast, aerobic, non-motile, and biofilm-forming bacterium. The increasing prevalence of mycobacterial infections makes it necessary to find new methods to combat the resistance of bacteria to conventional antibiotics. is an emerging pathogen that is intrinsically drug resistant due to several factors, including an impermeable cell envelope, drug efflux pumps, target-modifying enzymes, and the ability to form thick, robust biofilms.

Traditionally fermented sufu is popular because of its flavor, abundance of nutrients, and long shelf life. However, traditional sufu is difficult to produce via industrial processes because of dominant microorganism attenuation during fermentation. Herein, specific protease-producing strains were isolated from traditional sufu.
