13C labeling of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and carbon conversion efficiency in lesquerella (Physaria fendleri) embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Lesquerella (Physaria fendleri) is a Brassicaceae that produces a valuable class of compounds in its embryos called hydroxy fatty acids. These fatty acids are used widely in industry to produce cosmetics, coatings, greases, plastics, paints, and biofuel,

Stability and rheology of water‐in‐oil high internal phase emulsions containing continuous phase solid fat

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 102, Issue 7, Page 1131-1138, July 2025.
Abstract Solid fat added to the continuous phase of water‐in‐oil (W/O) high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) was assessed for its effects on aqueous droplet size, microstructure, and rheology during storage for one month. The emulsions consisted of 76 wt% water and a continuous phase composed of up to 2.4 wt% fully hydrogenated soybean oil ...

Photochemical Oxidative Cleavage and Dihydroxylation of Unsaturated Fatty Acids Using Triplet Nitroarenes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 127, Issue 7, July 2025.
Feedstock chemicals are commonly used as starting materials for specialty chemicals and their derivatization often involves oxidation reactions. Herein we report that nitroarenes can be used as photo‐responsive oxidants to achieve both the ozonolysis‐style oxidative cleavage and 1,2‐dihydroxylation of unsaturated fatty acids. The method requires simple

Δ12-Fatty acid desaturase from Candida parapsilosis is a multifunctional desaturase producing a range of polyunsaturated and hydroxylated fatty acids.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Numerous Δ12-, Δ15- and multifunctional membrane fatty acid desaturases (FADs) have been identified in fungi, revealing great variability in the enzymatic specificities of FADs involved in biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).

Empirical modelling as an experimental approach to optimize lactone production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The biotransformation of ricinoleic acid, carried out by Yarrowia lipolytica, leads to the formation of gama-decalactone, a well-known peach-like aroma compound, interesting to produce and to use in the flavouring industry, reason why it is imperative to
