Quantification of Squalene in Olive Oil Using 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the course of our ongoing work on the chemical characterization of Corsican olive oil, we have developed and validated a method for direct quantification of squalene using 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy without saponification, extraction, or fractionation of the investigated samples. Good accuracy, linearity, and precision of the measurements have been observed. The experimental procedure was applied to the quantification of squalene in 24 olive oil samples from Corsica. Squalene accounted for 0.35–0.83% of the whole composition.

Detection of extra virgin olive oil adulteration with lampante olive oil and refined olive oil using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and multivariate statistical analysis.
High-field 31P NMR (202.2 MHz) spectroscopy was applied to the analysis of 59 samples from three grades of olive oils, 34 extra virgin olive oils from various regions of Greece, and from different olive varieties, namely, 13 samples of refined olive oils and 12 samples of lampante olive oils. Classification of the three grades of olive oils was achieved by two multivariate statistical methods a...

The use of biomasses that result from the agriculture and food industries in removing heavy metals from wastewaters is attracting increasing interest. We present a joined potentiometric and cross polarization magic angle spinning (CP-MAS) carbon-13 (13C) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study on the interaction of olive stones with copper(II), nickel(II), and cadmium(II). The potentiometric mea...

Fast pyrolysis bio-oils are feasible energy carriers and a potential source of chemicals. Detailed characterization of bio-oils is essential to further develop its potential use. In this study, quantitative 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR) combined with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC) was used to characterize fast pyrolysis bio-oils originated from pinewood, w...
متن کاملWhich prior knowledge? Quantification of in vivo brain 13C MR spectra following 13C glucose infusion using AMARES.
The recent developments in high magnetic field 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy with improved localization and shimming techniques have led to important gains in sensitivity and spectral resolution of 13C in vivo spectra in the rodent brain, enabling the separation of several 13C isotopomers of glutamate and glutamine. In this context, the assumptions used in spectral quantification might ha...
متن کاملMeasurement of fractional whole-body gluconeogenesis in humans from blood samples using 2H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Several problems limit quantification of gluconeogenesis. We applied in vitro 2H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to simultaneously measure 2H in all glucose carbons for direct assessment of gluconeogenesis. This method was compared with 2H measurement in carbons 5 and 2 using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (hexamethylenetetramine [HMT]) and with in vivo 13C magnetic resonanc...
