The table olive industry generates high amounts of wastewater annually during the alkaline treatment, fermentation, and washing steps olives. High conductivity salt content, as well organic biophenol contents these waters, is a worldwide problem, especially in Mediterranean region, which major producing area. There wide variety bioactives found derived from processing. main compounds wastewater...

Vegetable and natural product utilization are conversely connected with diminished malignant growth rate mortality. Fruit antioxidants have been extensively studied for their ability to scavenge free radicals, preventing develop the chronic degenerative diseases. As antiproliferative agents, mixtures of biophenols were more effective than individual biophenols. The tyrosol hydroxytyrosol major ...

The main objective of this paper was the selection of promising bacterial strains to be used as potential tools to remove phenols in olive mill wastewater (OMW) or in other food wastes. Therefore, 12 OMW samples were analyzed and 119 isolates were collected. After a preliminary screening on a medium containing vanillic and cinnamic acids, three isolates were selected to evaluate their viability...

The technological characteristics of five oleuropeinolytic strains of the Lactobacillus plantarum group selected within 135 isolates from table olives were investigated. The metabolism of phenolic compounds during elaboration of green (cv. Chalkidikis) and black (cv. Kalamata) olives under reduced salt conditions was evaluated. Olives of both cultivars were fermented in two different kinds of b...
