Triterpenes of Centaurea ptosimopappoides

Phytochemistry, 1997
The roots of Centaurea ptosimopappoides afforded two new triterpenes; a new hopane derivative, 17β,21β-epoxy-16α-ethoxyhopan-3β-ol and a new baccharane type triterpene, 3β-acetoxy-17,24-dioxobaccharane. The known compounds, 17β,21β-epoxyhopan-3β-ol, 3β-acetoxyhop-17(21)-ene and 3β-acetoxy-erythrodiol were also isolated.

Contribution of Free Fatty Acids to Emulsion Building and Stability: Understanding the Mechanism From the Case Study of a Crude Red Palm Oil (Elaeis guineensis)—Based Emulsion Consumed in Africa and Known as Achu Soup/Sauce Jaune/Ncha

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
In an aqueous alkaline medium, fatty acids (from the hydrolysis of triglycerides or freely present in the oil) are ionised in order to form emulsifiers (carboxylates) which will physically stabilise the prepared emulsion. The higher the free fatty acids content of the oil and alkalinity of the solution, the higher will be the stability of the prepared ...
