This research aims to assess the effect of amino acids as lipid antioxidants in reducing the formation of volatile aldehydes in frying oil. Methionine, histidine, and glycine at concentrations of 2.5, 5, and 10 mM were added to high oleic sunflower oil (HOSO) to investigate their effects on the distribution and formation of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated volatile aldehydes. The results showed that the proportion of saturated volatile aldehydes was greater than that of unsaturated ones; Methionine exhibited the best inhibitory effect, after 12 h of frying, 10 mM methionine reduced the content of saturated volatile aldehydes by 24.21 %, monounsaturated by 52.4 %, and polyunsaturated by 54.73 % compared to the control. Methionine's sulfur-containing side chain was also proven to have strong antioxidant activity. Combined with the results of this study, this can also provide insights for using amino acids as lipid antioxidants.

Background/objectives: Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), extensively studied in terrestrial plants with global emissions around 1 PgC yr, are also produced by marine organisms. However, benthic species, especially seagrasses, are understudied despite their global distribution (177,000-600,000 km). This study aims to examine BVOC emissions from key Mediterranean seagrass species (, , , and ) in marine and coastal lagoon environments.

Neofusicoccum parvum is one of the most hazardous pathogens causing mango fruit decay. The present study utilized trans-2-hexenal (TH), a typical antifungal component of plant essential oils (EOs), to control N. parvum both in vivo and in vitro, and attempted to explore the mechanisms involved.

Plant volatile aldehydes (PVAs) such as cinnamaldehyde (Cin), citral (Cit), citronellal (Citr), and perillaldehyde (Per) have broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and show great potential in agricultural sustainable production. However, most PVAs not only have very high volatility but also are easily degradable in environment, which seriously restricts their wide application. To address the inherent problems with PVAs, four prodrugs based on PVAs are fabricated by conjugating individually Cin, Cit, Citr, and Per to sodium bisulfite (Sod) through a simple addition reaction and subsequently self-assembled into nanoparticles (prodrug self-assemblies) in aqueous solutions.

Currently, the use of bio-inputs is increasing due to the need to reduce the use of agrochemicals. However, one of the limitations is to preserve the viability of the living microorganisms, so it is important to find an alternative that allows us to obtain different metabolites to produce it. We evaluated three different interactions (contact, diffusible and volatile compounds) in (At) seedlings with the strain M10 and its filtered secondary metabolites (M10F).

Environmental exposures to volatile organic compound (VOC) mixtures have received increasing attention, yet the risks are under studied. This study aimed to explore the risks of combined exposures to several commonly detected VOCs and to draw attention to the necessity of studying long-term and low-concentration environmental exposure patterns. In this study, we examined the effects of long-term and low-concentration exposures to VOCs like 1,2-dichlorobenzene, benzene, toluene and formaldehyde either alone or in combination on D.
