Article Abstract
Introduction: Skin care for very and extremely preterm infant is an important and previously underappreciated topic. Coconut oil skin care for preterm infants is a promising option, but several important questions remain including the theoretical potential for allergic sensitization.
Methods: This prospective study conducted skin prick testing and allergy questionnaires in a cohort of very preterm infants who received routine skin care with virgin coconut oil during their neonatal admission.
Results: Ninety infants (median GA 28.2 weeks, median BW 1,048 g) were assessed at corrected age 15 months. A total of 8 children had positive skin prick tests to 1 or more of the most common allergens (egg, peanut, cashew, dust mite). No child was sensitized to coconut oil or extract.
Conclusions: We did not find evidence of allergic sensitization following neonatal skin care with coconut oil in children born preterm.

Oromucosal as an Alternative Method for Administration of Cannabis Products in Rodents.

Oral administration of drugs in laboratory rodents such as rats is conventionally performed using the gavage technique. Despite effectiveness, gavage can induce distress associated with restraint, especially following repeated animal handling. To mitigate these adverse effects and reduce morbidity associated with traditional methods, we explored oromucosal/buccal administration of cannabidiol (CBD)-enriched Cannabis extract.

This study developed medium-chain fatty acid (MCFA)-enriched specialty fats for hand-grasp pancakes through enzymatic interesterification (EIE) using a soybean oil/fully hydrogenated coconut oil/fully hydrogenated palm oil blend (6:1:3 w/w/w) as the substrate. Orthogonal optimization achieved 99.85 % randomization efficiency under mild conditions (70 °C, 12 % lipase load, 4 h).

Plant-based cheese alternatives often lack desirable cheese-like flavours characteristics of traditional dairy cheeses. This study aimed to develop soy-based cheeses with flavour profiles comparable to blue and white mould-ripened dairy cheeses, such as Roquefort and Camembert. Volatile compound profiles were analysed from soymilk fermented with Penicillium roqueforti or Penicillium camemberti.

The relatively low lipid content of Robusta coffee is a major factor contributing to its monotonous aroma profile. In this study, Robusta green coffee beans were pretreated with ultrasound-assisted oil-solvent (coconut oil/palm oil/butter/camellia oil/walnut oil) to regulate the formation of aroma compounds during roasting by modifying their lipid composition, thereby enhancing the aroma profile of Robusta coffee. Lipidomic analysis showed that pretreatment significantly increased total lipid content and remodeled fatty acids and lipid molecules, with butter and coconut oil yielding the strongest effects.
