AI Article Synopsis

  • Camellia oil, known as 'Oriental Olive Oil' in China, has recognized health benefits, but its large-scale production remains undeveloped.
  • The review discusses the properties, commercial value, processing technologies, and innovative modifications of Camellia oil products.
  • It also highlights advancements in breeding and suggests integrated methods for fruit utilization, aiming to encourage more research into Camellia oil as a potential alternative to traditional olive oil.

Article Abstract

() is a woody oil plant with a good reputation of 'Oriental Olive Oil' in China. The national understanding of the health-care benefits of Camellia oil are already widespread, but the production of fruit has not been achieved large-scale industrialisation. In this review, we focus on the properties and commercial value of its natural products, and processing technology, performance characterisation, and novel modification strategies of its processed products. In addition, we briefly summarised the research progress of breeding and put forward the comprehensive utilisation of fruit based on the tandem of extraction and processing. This review might attract more researchers to make profound study regarding it as an alternative of olive oil.

In recent decades, freshwater bodies have experienced significant stress due to the excessive disposal of dyes from textile industries and waste antibiotic discharges from pharmaceutical industries. The continuous disposal of these substances may harm the natural ecosystem and generate antibiotic resistance in living organisms. Conventional treatment facilities are inadequate in treating these contaminants effectively, leading to a focused interest in advanced technologies, such as electrooxidation.

Department of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Graduate School, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Known for their diverse and potent physiological activities, natural products continue to be essential for the discovery and development of new drugs. This chapter explores the pivotal role of preparative thin-layer chromatography (Prep-TLC) in the isolation of natural products. This chapter begins with an understanding of the historical significance and structural complexity of natural products, and discusses the problems caused by complex mixtures present in extracts, as well as the multifunctionality, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with different sample types of Prep-TLC to address these challenges.
