Lipids are increasingly attractive in the food industry, resulting an increasing demand for lipids from edible and non-edible sources. Conventional solvent extraction has drawbacks of low efficiency, long time, large consumption, it can negatively impact lipid quality such as oxidation due to time high temperature. Ultrasound-assisted (UAE) overcome these shortcomings received more attention. W...

Background & Aim:Nepeta racemosa is an herbal and medicinal plant and this report aims to   identify chemical compositions of the essential oils and volatiles of its   aerial parts through classical and advanced methods.  Experimental: Chemical profiles of the essential oils and volatile compounds from the aerial parts of Nepeta racemosa obtai...

Garlic, Alliumsativum, is broadly used around the world for its numerous culinary and medicinal uses. Wild garlic, Allium vineale, has been used as a substitute for garlic, both in food as well as in herbal medicine. The present study investigated the chemical compositions of A. sativum and A. vineale essential oils. The essential oils from the bulbs of A. sativum, cultivated in Spain, were obt...

Reactive oxygen species and free radicals play a major role in food deterioration. Current research is directed towards finding naturally occurring antioxidants of plant origin. In the present study, the chemical composition analysis of the essential oil obtained from sawdust of Chamaecyparis obtusa (COEO) was conducted by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). Further, the ...
