Olive oil is an essential part of the so-called “Mediterranean diet”, purportedly one of the healthiest gastronomic traditions in the world. The wax content in olive oil is regulated under European Union ...
Prospective exploration of hazelnut’s unsaponifiable fraction for geographical and varietal authentication: A comparative study of advanced fingerprinting and untargeted profiling techniques
(Elsevier, 2024-01-04)
This study compares two data processing techniques (fingerprinting and untargeted profiling) to authenticate
hazelnut cultivar and provenance based on its unsaponifiable fraction by GC–MS. PLS-DA ...
Analysing olive ripening with digital image RGB histograms
(Elsevier, 2023-10-09)
Digital images are commonly used to monitor processes that are based on colour changes due to their simplicity
and easy capture. Colour information in these images can be analysed objectively and ...
Effect of Hopper Loading on the Formation of Alkyl Alcohols in Olive Fruits and Its Relationship with Sensory Quality Losses of Virgin Olive Oil
(MDPI, 2023-07-07)
The storage of olives in large hoppers is a widespread practice in oil mills, but these large
volumes and their unloading can cause a physical deterioration of the olives that will affect the quality
of ...
Varietal authentication of virgin olive oil: Proving the efficiency of sesquiterpene fingerprinting for Mediterranean Arbequina oils
(Elsevier, 2021-04-28)
Virgin olive oil (VOO) is a highly appreciated product fundamental in the Mediterranean diet. Since its sensory attributes are greatly influenced by the olive cultivar, the varietal authentication of ...
Efect of freezing, fast‑freezing by liquid nitrogen or refrigeration to preserve premium extra virgin olive oil during storage
(Springer, 2022-07-09)
During storage, premium extra virgin olive oils (PEVOO), which are oils of exceptional sensory quality, may lose the organoleptic characteristics that define them. This study assessed the effect of ...
Geographical authentication of virgin olive oil by GC-MS sesquiterpene hydrocarbon fingerprint: Scaling down to the verification of PDO compliance
(Elsevier, 2022-04-26)
Nowadays, 144 Protected Designations of Origin (PDO) and Protected Geographical Indications (PGI) under the EU quality schemes correspond to extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). As endorsed by the EU Food ...
Effects of Agronomical Practices on Crop Quality and Sensory Profile
(MDPI, 2024-05-21)
Advances in Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) Rootstocks Worldwide
(MDPI, 2021-08-26)
Studies on hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) rootstocks have been limited to date. However, the use of vigorous, non-suckering rootstocks for this species could increase the cost-effectiveness of orchards ...
Investigating isotopic markers for hazelnut geographical authentication: Promising variables and potential applications
(Elsevier, 2024-03-23)
Hazelnuts' features and price are influenced by their geographical origin, making them susceptible to fraud,
especially counterfeit claims regarding their provenance. Stable isotope analysis is a ...
