The purpose of this paper is to reduce the acid value of rice bran crude oil and make a new rice bran oil (RBO) with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Linoleic acid isomerase from Bifidobacterium breve was immobilized on a magnetic nanoflower carrier of FeO-SiO-NFs. Molecular docking simulations were performed to investigate the interaction and binding mode conformation between isomerase and linoleic acid (LA) molecules by using computer software. This isomerase was used in isomerization reaction of high acid value RBO. Under the optimal enzymatic isomerization conditions, the conversion rate of LA was 62.13 %. The content of c9-CLA and t11-CLA in the product of enzymatic isomerization reaction was 23.50 ± 0.25 %. After six repeated uses, the relative activity of the immobilized enzyme remained above 70 %. Esterification reaction was performed from monoacylglycerol and RBO with CLA under the catalysis of magnetic immobilized lipase. The CLA glyceride content was 14.09 ± 0.53 % in new RBO product. The acid value of RBO decreased to 0.31 ± 0.15 mgKOH/g, and the peroxide value was 1.03 ± 0.14 mmol/kg. It may provide a sustainable pathway for RBO refining that combines deacidification with CLA-functionalization.

In this study, a novel magnetically recyclable catalyst was developed by immobilizing ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) onto linoleic acid-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (FeO-LA@CAN). The catalyst was thoroughly characterized using FT-IR, XRD, TEM, SEM-EDX, VSM, TGA, and N adsorption-desorption analyses. The catalytic efficiency of FeO-LA@CAN was evaluated in the C3-selective formylation of free (N-H) indole derivatives, exhibiting excellent activity and broad substrate scope.

This study systematically investigates lipid dynamics and their role in aroma formation during Qingzhuan tea (QZT) processing. Using UHPLC-MRM-MS/MS and GC-MS, we analyzed fatty acids (FAs) and oxidized fatty acids (OFAs) across seven processing stages, identifying 31 FAs and 55 OFAs. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly -linolenic acid (C18:3) and linoleic acid (C18:2), dominated the lipid profiles (43.

Modulation of prostaglandin synthesis, specifically, decreasing prostaglandin F (PGF) and increasing prostaglandin E (PGE) and interferon-tau (IFNT), can support maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP) in cattle. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is known to influence prostaglandins (PG) synthesis in cell cultures; however, its effect on in vitro-cultured bovine oocytes and embryos remain unclear. We hypothesized that CLA supplementation in oocytes and embryo culture media would reduce PGF synthesis, increases PGE synthesis and PGE:PGF ratio in embryos, modulate the expression of genes involved in PG and IFNT synthesis, and enhance embryo development.

While probiotics are widely recognized for their adjunctive benefits in ulcerative colitis treatment, the therapeutic potential of heat-killed cells remains underexplored. This study directly compared the efficacy of Bifidobacterium breve B2798 probiotics (LB group) and their heat-killed counterparts (DB group) in alleviating dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. Over a 21-day intervention, both treatments significantly mitigated colitis symptoms, including weight loss, colon damage, and splenomegaly, with heat-killed cells demonstrating superior histological improvement over live probiotics.

The Sensomics approach, including activity-guided fractionation and taste dilution analysis, was employed to identify the key compounds responsible for the bitter off-taste of sunflower press cake. A combination of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography-time-of-flight-mass spectrometry, one-/two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and dose-overthreshold factor calculation led to the identification of 9,12,13-trihydroxyoctadec-10-enoic acid, 9,10,11-trihydroxyoctadec-12-enoic acid, 11,12,13-trihydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid, (10,12)-9-hydroxyoctadeca-10,12-dienoic acid, (10,12)-9-hydroxyoctadeca-10,12-dienoic acid, (9,11)-13-hydroxyoctadeca-9,11-dienoic acid, (9,11)-13-hydroxyoctadeca-9,11-dienoic acid, (9,11)-13-oxooctadeca-9,11-dienoic acid, α-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, 2-hydroxyoleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and novel pinocarveol β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-(4--caffeoyl) glucopyranoside as contributors to the bitterness of sunflower press cake. The findings provide valuable insights into the sensory challenges associated with using sunflower press cake in food applications and offer pathways to enhance its palatability and potential as a sustainable protein alternative to meet future protein demands.
