The knowledge of the dielectric properties of oils is of great importance for several industrial applications, such as microwave-assisted oil frying for foods and high voltage electric power transmission. In this paper, we present the complex permittivity of vegetable oils (canola, olive, soybean, coconut) at 2.50 GHz using the cavity perturbation technique from 28 to 200 °C (temperature close to the smoking point of oils). The measurements were taken with a cylindrical cavity operating at the TE mode with an unloaded Q of 4950. In addition, free fatty acids, peroxide index and color were measured before and after heating.

Food commodities, including mycotoxins naturally produced from toxigenic fungi (pre- or post-harvest), are particularly vulnerable to contamination. The study intended to use unique bioactive composites loaded with antimicrobial constituents for food packaging. Three composite types are based on carboxymethyl cellulose/shellac (CMC/SH) and loaded with pomegranate extract (POE) with or without jojoba oil (JOE) at various concentrations.

This review explores the tribological properties of biosourced lubricants (biolubricants) enhanced by graphene (Gr) and its derivatives and hybrids. Friction and wear at mechanical interfaces are the primary causes of energy loss and machinery degradation, necessitating effective lubrication strategies. Traditional lubricants derived from mineral oils present environmental challenges, leading to an increased interest in biolubricants derived from plant oils and animal fats.

Background: Aflatoxin B (AFB), a potent carcinogen produced by species, is a prevalent contaminant in oil crops, with prolonged exposure associated with liver damage. Home-made peanut oil (HMPO) produced by small workshops in Guangzhou is heavily contaminated with AFB. Despite the enactment of the Small Food Workshops Management Regulations (SFWMR), no quantitative assessment has been conducted regarding its impact on food contamination and public health.

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) poses a significant therapeutic challenge due to its resistance to multiple antibiotics and its ability to form biofilm. This study aimed to characterize MDR isolates for their biofilm-forming capabilities and the presence of common biofilm-related genes at a tertiary care university hospital in Nepal. In addition, it assessed the efficacy of various compounds, particularly essential oils, in inhibiting biofilm formation.
