Vegetable Oil-Based Materials for Drug Delivery Systems and Wound Dressings. [PDF]
Macromol BiosciRenewable resources like vegetable oils are increasingly explored for biomaterial production in biomedical applications. Their monoglycerides and triglycerides inherently possess functions or can be chemically modified to introduce functional groups suitable for polymerization, yielding biomaterials with desirable properties such as flexibility ...

Genetic Engineering of Lesquerella with Increased Ricinoleic Acid Content in Seed Oil
Plants, 2021 Seeds of castor (Ricinus communis) are enriched in oil with high levels of the industrially valuable fatty acid ricinoleic acid (18:1OH), but production of this plant is limited because of the cooccurrence of the ricin toxin in its seeds.

Understanding the dynamic nature of plant lipid anabolic and catabolic metabolism is key to sustainable oilseed engineering. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Plant‐derived oils are essential sources of reduced carbon and various fatty acid (FA) structures for food, biofuels, and the oleochemical industry. Despite extensive efforts, engineering mainstream oilseed crops to produce high levels of industrially valuable unusual FAs (UFAs) remains challenging.

A Triple-Catalytic, Fully Biogenic Synthesis of Cyclic Carbonates. [PDF]
ChemSusChemA three‐step synthesis of cyclic carbonates from biogenic resources (fatty acids, O2, CO2) is reported. The process operates via a visible light‐mediated hydrocarbon oxidation, with an overall 100% atom‐economy, in the presence of easily accessible catalysts (porphyrin, VO(acac)2, pyridine) but without intermediate work‐up procedures.
