Oil yield, physicochemical characteristics, oxidative stability and microbial safety of perilla seeds stored at different relative humidity

Lipids and coumarin extraction from cumaru seeds (Dipteryx odorata) using sequential supercritical CO2+solvent and pressurized ethanol

“…Since the free fatty acid values in extracted oils are in the range of non-drying oils, cumaru seeds oil obtained in this work may be regarded to the same use as other conventional oils. Refraction index, iodine value and saponification value are comparable with other vegetable oils, such as rubber [78], perilla [79], Sapindus mukorossi [80], Nigella sativa L. [81], and Acacia nilotica [82] seed oils. In addition, the values of all physical properties of the extracts obtained are in the range required by the AOCS standards.…”

Miyeokgui (Undaria pinnatifida Sporophyll) Characteristic under Different Relative Humidity: Microbial Safety, Antioxidant Activity, Ascorbic Acid, Fucoxanthin, α-/β-/γ-Tocopherol Contents

“…Estrada-Bahena et al (2022) [ 29 ] observed that the MC of green coffee beans is significantly impacted by water activity. Lee et al (2021) [ 21 ] revealed that perilla seeds substantially influenced the isotherm curve at different RH levels ranging from 11% to 93%. The green coffee beans were stored under low water activity conditions, with the water in the beans being dehumidified and lowered.…”

“…UPS was examined for the presence of aerobic bacteria, yeast, and mold using a minorly modified version of the method described by Lee et al (2021) [ 20 , 21 ]. The measured 5 g of UPS powder was placed in an aseptic Stomacher bag (Fisher Scientific, St. Louis, MO, USA), followed by the addition of a 10-fold sterile saline solution (0.85% NaCl) and homogenization for 120 sec using a Stomacher (Model 400; Seward Co., Worthing, UK).…”

Improvement of thermo-resistance and quality of soybean oil by blending with cold-pressed oils using simplex lattice mixture design

“…The iodine released is titrated with sodium thiosulfate (0.1N) in the presence of starch as an indicator until the medium turns colorless. A blank test was carried out under the same conditions using all elements of the mixture in the exception of oil [23]. The iodine value was calculated following equation 5:…”
