Neem oil (Azadirachta indica) as a promising feedstock for biolubricant production: enzymatic synthesis, process optimization, and molecular studies

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 237-252, January/February 2026.
Abstract The fuel industry remains closely tied to oil‐based fuels. This relationship is responsible for increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels are an alternative to petroleum‐based fuels that could make industrial production lines more sustainable.

Batch Heterogeneous Catalytic Selective Hydrogenation of Vegetable Oils Over Lindlar Catalyst: Kinetic Modeling Supported by Reaction Mechanisms

open access: yesChemistryOpen, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2025.
Heterogeneous catalytic selective hydrogenation of vegetable oils was modeled by Hougen–Watson approach to obtain kinetic rate laws. Parameters were obtained by nonlinear regressions on batch experimental data, and the best mechanism to interpret those experimental data was chosen on a statistical basis (higher coefficient of determination R2) and by ...

Sustainable biofuel production from fish processing waste: lipase‐catalyzed hydroesterification of tilapia residual oil

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1948-1969, November/December 2025.
Abstract Fishing waste and byproducts, whether naturally occurring or from industrial processing, are important sources of high‐value compounds. Fertilizers, biomaterials, cosmetics, biolubricants, and biodiesel are some of the substances that can be obtained from these residues. The objective of this study was to conduct a theoretical and experimental

The enzyme kinetics of branched‐chain fatty acid synthesis of metazoan fatty acid synthase

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Branched‐chain fatty acids (BCFAs) exhibit enhanced oxidative stability, lower melting points, and reduced viscosity compared to straight‐chain fatty acids (StCFAs), making them valuable for biological systems and industrial applications.
