Esterified sterols and their contribution to the total sterols in edible mushrooms

open access: yes, 2016
Mushrooms are a valued source of sterols, which can be present in free form and esterified to fatty acids. In addition to the principal ergosterol, several minor sterols occur.

Reconsidering the impact of saturated fat intake on metabolic health: A critical review of evidence and controversies

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...

Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...

Impact of high temperature processing and heating duration on fatty acid composition and trans fatty acid formation in seven cold‐pressed and five refined vegetable oils

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Edible oils are essential dietary constituents that contribute as energy source, fatty acids and medium for fat‐soluble vitamins. High temperature during frying induces changes in the fatty acid profile of edible oils. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the influence of high temperature (230 ± 5°C) and duration of heating (0, 1, 2

Optimization of Ultrasound‐Assisted Extraction of Seabuckthorn (Hippophae salicifolia) Seed Oil With the Use of Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐assisted extraction (UAE) of seabuckthorn seed oil enhanced yield (17.95%), antioxidant activity (IC50: 5.25 μg/mL), and carotenoid content (266.63 mg/100 g). The oil, rich in unsaturated fatty acids (83.15%), exhibited superior quality, thermal stability, and potential applications in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, making UAE a ...

Hydrogen Sulfide Application Reduces Postharvest Weight Loss in Tomato Fruit by Promoting Cuticular Wax Accumulation

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
NaHS‐derived H2S enhances postharvest tomato fruit storability by reducing weight loss, delaying peel wrinkling, and maintaining peel firmness. This response is associated with increased cuticular wax deposition and upregulation of wax biosynthetic and regulatory genes, without marked changes in PME or PG activities. ABSTRACT During postharvest storage,
