A method for real-time monitoring of lipid digestion based on photonic crystals formed from silica was developed. As an effective "net", the highly ordered silica colloidal crystal (SCC) film provides structural support for lipid payload. This method based on optical interferometric film kinetics was used to record the whole kinetics progress of olive oil hydrolysis by lipase in real time and calculate the kinetic Michaelis constant. The kinetic parameters were compared with the results determined by the titration method. The effects of bile salt content on lipase and olive oil layer were studied. This method provides a potential evaluation system for real-time digestion and degradation of edible oil in the food field. It also provides a basis for further real-time evaluation of lipid bioavailability in food systems by real-time recording the release and degradation of lipids in the food nano-matrix.

This study characterized a novel bacterial lipase with high biotechnological potential, focusing on industrial and environmental applications. Bacterial isolates were screened using olive oil as a substrate, and the strain with the highest hydrolytic halo was identified as Burkholderia sp. via 16S rRNA analysis.

In the production sector, the usefulness of predictive systems as a tool for management and decision-making is well known. In the agricultural sector, a correct economic balance of the farm depends on making the right decisions. For this purpose, having information in advance on crop yields is an extraordinary help.

High Resolution-Magic Angle Spinning (HR-MAS) solid-state NMR spectroscopy is finding increasing application in the analysis of solid foods, bypassing the need for complicated solvent extraction procedures. In the present protocol, we report a simple analytical approach based on HR-MAS NMR spectroscopy for the phenolic profiling of olive fruits, flesh, or skin. This approach allows the facile characterization of phenolic compounds in olive fruits cultivated for extra-virgin olive oil production as a function of maturation and variety, in addition to processing technology for table olives.

Traditional medicine has used both oils for managing cardiovascular disease, diabetes, gastrointestinal dysfunctions, metabolic-dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), obesity, and more. This review explores the bioactive and polyphenolic compounds in flaxseed and olive oils that provide anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-microbial, hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, antidiabetic, and gastroprotective benefits.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major concern for public health. Fatty liver disease, related to alcohol misuse or metabolic syndrome, has become the leading cause of chronic liver disease and HCC. The strong association between type 2 diabetes mellitus and HCC can be partly attributed to the development of metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
