Evolution of Extra Virgin Olive Oil Quality under Different Storage Conditions
Foods, 2021 The extent and conditions of storage may affect the stability and quality of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). This study aimed at evaluating the effects of different storage conditions (ambient, 4 °C and −18 °C temperatures, and argon headspace) on three ...

Besnoitia besnoiti infection alters both endogenous cholesterol de novo synthesis and exogenous LDL uptake in host endothelial cells [PDF]
, 2008 Besnoitia besnoiti, an apicomplexan parasite of cattle being considered as emergent in Europe, replicates fast in host endothelial cells during acute infection and is in considerable need for energy, lipids and other building blocks for offspring ...

Introducing the concept of biocatalysis in the classroom: The conversion of cholesterol to provitamin D 3 [PDF]
, 2016 Biocatalysis is a fundamental concept in biotechnology. The topic integrates knowledge of several disciplines; therefore, it was included in the course “design and optimization of biological systems” which is offered in the biochemistry curricula.

Esterification of injected epicoprostanol in a human subject
Journal of Lipid Research, 1969 That a necessary requirement for in vivo esterification of 3-hydroxy sterols is the equatorial conformation of the hydroxyl group has been substantiated by the administration of epicoprostanol-3β-3H (3-OH equatorial) to a man with a complete biliary ...

Genetic control of sterol esterification in developing wheat endosperm [PDF]
, 1975 1. 1. The action of gene Pln, previously characterized by the sterol ester patterns of mature whole wheat kernels, has been found to be restricted to the endosperm and not to affect the embryo, the pericarp or the seed coat. 2. 2.

Plant phloem sterol content: forms, putative functions, and implications for phloem-feeding insects
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 All eukaryotes contain sterols, which serve as structural components in cell membranes, and as precursors for important hormones. Plant vegetative tissues are known to contain mixtures of sterols, but very little is known about the sterol composition of ...

Hopanoids Play a Role in Membrane Integrity and pH Homeostasis in Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1 [PDF]
, 2009 Sedimentary hopanes are pentacyclic triterpenoids that serve as biomarker proxies for bacteria and certain bacterial metabolisms, such as oxygenic photosynthesis and aerobic methanotrophy.
