AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focuses on extracting oil from a neglected crop called subsp. W.J.de Wlide & Duyfjes (or Making in Thai), which has nuts high in fat content.
  • Using response surface methodology (RSM), researchers determined that a mixture of Flavourzyme and Viscozyme led to a maximum oil yield of 46.44% under optimal conditions (2.98% enzyme, 48°C, 76 min).
  • The extracted oil demonstrated favorable chemical properties and higher levels of beneficial compounds like δ-tocopherol and omega-6 fatty acids, marking this as the first report on enzyme-assisted extraction from this plant for vegetable oil production.

Article Abstract

subsp. W.J.de Wlide & Duyfjes (or Making in Thai) is a neglected and underutilized crop (NUC) with high fat containing nuts. In this study, the enzyme-assisted mechanical extraction of seed oil was investigated using response surface methodology (RSM) to predict the optimal fat extraction conditions. The most efficient enzyme used in the experiment was a mixture of Flavourzyme and Viscozyme (1:1, /). The predicted maximum oil yield was 46.44%, using the following extraction conditions: 2.98% (/) enzyme loading, 48 °C incubation temperature and 76 min of incubation time. seed oil obtained from heat and enzymatic pretreatments exhibited the highest lightness and viscosity. The chemical properties of this seed oil, including water and volatile compounds (≤0.2% /), acid value (≤4.0 mg KOH/g), peroxide value (≤15 mEq of active oxygen/kg) and soap content (≤0.005% /), were within the acceptable levels specified by the Codex Alimentarius (2019). seed oil obtained from heat and enzymatic pretreatments contained the highest content of δ-tocopherol (88.29 mg/100 g) and omega-6 fatty acids (48.19 g/100 g). This study is the first to report on the enzyme-assisted mechanical extraction of oilseeds as a promising plant material for vegetable oil production.

The WRINKLED1 (WRI1) transcription factor controls carbon flow in plants through regulating the expression of glycolysis and fatty acid biosynthesis genes. The role of Gossypium hirsutum WRINKLED1 (GhWRI1) in seed-oil accumulation still needs to be explored. Multiple sequence alignment of WRI1 proteins confirmed the presence of two conserved AP2 domains.

A new antioxidant lipid (AL) was synthesized from rainbow trout () belly oil and cold-pressed maqui (CPM) ( (Mol.) Stuntz) seed oil via enzymatic interesterification using in supercritical CO medium. A Box-Behnken design with 15 experiments was employed, with the independent variables being the following: belly oil/CPM oil ratio (10/90, 50/50, and 90/10, /), supercritical CO temperature (40.

Key Laboratory of Biology and Genetic Improvement of Oil Crops of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Oil Crops Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Wuhan, 430062, China.

Background: Laccases (LACs) are vital plant growth and development enzymes, participating in lignin biopolymerization and responding to stress. However, the role of LAC genes in plant development as well as stress tolerance, is still not well understood, particularly in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), an important oilseed crop.

Castor bean (Ricinus communis) is cultivated agriculturally for oil and ornamentally for its bright foliage and seed. Ornamental castor bean has naturalized in many areas of the world, including the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, where it is not planted commercially. In a survey conducted in 2019 in Sinaloa, wild castor bean was found widely affected by a foliar blight with symptoms similar to Alternaria ricini previously described in the United States (Stevenson 1945) and in the state of Chiapas, Mexico (López-Guillén et al.

In the past decade, there has been an emerging gap between the demand and supply of vegetable oils globally for both edible and industrial use. Lipids are important biomolecules with enormous applications in the industrial sector and a major source of energy for animals and plants. Hence, to elevate the lipid content through metabolic engineering, new strategies have come up for triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation and in raising the lipid or oil yield in crop plants.
