Three mesoporous silica materials with various channel sizes and structures were employed to prepare immobilized lipase catalysts for the transesterification of unrefined wasted cooking oil (UWCO) to biodiesel at room temperature. The channel size of support material was found to be the key point to obtain high initial specific activity and high sustainability of activity of the immobilized lipase catalysts. A SBA-15 material with appropriate channel size (14.0 nm) demonstrates the best capacity of lipase. The immobilized catalyst with the SBA-15 material shows much higher activity and sustainability of activity than the immobilized catalysts with a MCM-41 material (channel size 1.8 nm) and a mesostructured cellular foam (MCF) material (channel size 28.0 nm) as support materials in the transformation of UWCO to biodiesel. After 60 h of reaction at 28 °C, a fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) yield up to 80.1 and 71.8 % of initial specific activity can be achieved using SBA-15-immobilized lipase.

To further enhance the application of nobiletin (an important active ingredient in Citrus fruits), we used ultrasonic homogenization-assisted antisolvent precipitation to create ultrafine particles of nobiletin (UPN). DMSO was used as the solvent, and deionized water was used as the antisolvent. When ultrasonication (670 W) and homogenization (16000 r/min) were synergistic, the solution concentration was 57 mg/mL, and the minimum particle size of UPN was 521.02 nm. The UPN samples outperformed the RN samples in terms of the inhibition of porcine pancreatic lipase, which was inhibited (by 500 mg/mL) by 68.41 % in the raw sample, 90.34 % in the ultrafine sample, and 83.59 % in the positive control, according to the data. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis revealed no chemical changes in the samples before or after preparation. However, the crystallinity of the processed ultrafine nobiletin particles decreased. Thus, this work offers significant relevance for applications in the realm of food chemistry and indirectly illustrates the expanded application potential of nobiletin.

To investigate the effects of “golden flora” amount on the sensory quality, metabolites and bioactivities of Fu brick tea (FBT), FBT samples with different “golden flora” amounts were prepared from the same materials by adjusting the water content before pressing. With the increase of “golden flora” in samples, the tea liquor color changed from yellow to orange red and the astringent taste gradually diminished. Targeted analysis demonstrated that (−)-epigallocatechin gallate, (−)-epicatechin gallate, and most amino acids gradually decreased as the increase of “golden flora”. Seventy differential metabolites were identified by untargeted analysis. Among them, sixteen compounds including two Fuzhuanins and four EPSFs were positively correlated with “golden flora” amount ( P < 0.05). The FBT samples with “golden flora” exhibited significantly higher inhibitory potency on α-amylase and lipase than the samples without “golden flora”. Our results provide a theoretical basis of guiding FBT processing based on desired sensory quality and metabolites.

Nowadays, breast milk is considered as the ideal food for infants owing to the most common oleic acid-palmitic acid-oleic acid (OA-PA-OA) fatty acid distribution of the human milk fat (HMF). This study reports the synthesis of 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmotoylglycerol (OPO)-rich human milk fat substitutes in a two-step enzymatic acidolysis reaction with Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RML) immobilized on magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes(mMWCNTs). The immobilized RML (RML-mMWCNTs) showed better thermal and pH stability, convenient recovery and reusability than the free soluble form. Under optimized reaction conditions (1:8 tripalmitin (PPP)/OA, 10%wt. enzyme, 50 °C, 5 h), PA content at the sn- 2 position and OA incorporation at the sn -1,3 positions reached 93.46% and 59.54%, respectively. Comparison tests have also showed that RML-mMWCNTs has better catalytic activity and reusability than the commercial lipase Lipozyme RM IM. The results suggest that RML-mMWCNTs is a promising biocatalyst for the synthesis of OPO-rich TAGs with potential use in infant formulas.

One of the most significant sources of commercial camphor oil is the essential oil of Cinnamomum burmannii (Nees et T. Nees) Blume leaves, which has been manufactured using a variety of distillation techniques, including hydrodistillation and microwave-assisted hydrodistillation. In this study, we employed solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME) to recover hydrosol and essential oil from fresh C. burmannii leaves that had undergone screw extrusion. An optimum yield of 12.35 ± 0.62 mL/kg DW of essential oil was obtained by optimizing the major SFME contributing parameters using a face-centered central composite design (FCCCD). By using SFME, the influence of microwave irradiation power on the yield and quality of the essential oil of fresh leaves of C. burmannii was examined. With the aid of first- and second-order kinetic equations, SFME was contrasted with hydrodistillation and dry distillation. A total of 32 components were detected in the essential oil, and 22 components were detected in the hydrosol obtained by SFME under the optimized conditions. The main components of the essential oil were 1,8-cineole (21.67%), borneol (17.37%) and α -terpineol (7.45%), in descending order, and the main components of the hydrosol were trans -2-hydroxycinnamic acid (21.45%), borneol (22.07%), 1,8-cineole (13.65%) and α -terpineol (11.93%). 1,8-Cineole and borneol were the two components with the highest influence on hierarchical clustering, according to principal component analysis and heatmap analysis. Moreover, box-whisker plots were used to determine and compare the inhibitory activities of the essential oil and its three primary constituents against pancreatic lipase . The outcomes demonstrated that 1,8-cineole played a critical role in the essential oil's ability to inhibit pancreatic lipase, and they also demonstrated a positive correlation between the concentration and the amount of inhibition activity.
