The Effect of Drying Methods and Extraction Techniques on Oleuropein Content in Olive Leaves

Darija Cor Andrejc et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of different extraction and drying methods on the content of oleuropein in olive leaves. The results showed that ethanol-modified supercritical extraction and ultrasonic extraction methods were more effective in extracting antioxidants from olive leaves. Additionally, different drying methods also affected the content of oleuropein.

The potential of wild olive leaves (Olea europaea L. subsp. oleaster) addition as a functional additive in olive oil production: the effects on bioactive and nutraceutical compounds using LC-ESI-QTOF/MS

Bechir Baccouri et al.

Summary: This study investigated the enrichment of olive oil with oleaster leaves using traditional maceration. The composition of phenolic and tocopherol compounds in the oils was determined, and the effects of the maceration process on oil quality indicators were investigated. The results showed that the addition of fresh wild olive leaves during maceration improved the total contents of bioactive compounds and pigments in the oils. Several phenolic compounds were characterized and quantified using an effective HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS method. The most abundant compounds were derivatives of oleuropein aglycon and ligstroside aglycon. Tocopherols also increased significantly with the addition of leaves. Overall, this study suggests that the addition of olive leaf during the maceration process can result in functional olive oils with higher antioxidant contents.

Addition of ?Chetoui? olive leaf extract to reduce acrylamide in Californian-style black olive

Dalel Mechi et al.

Summary: This research focuses on improving food quality by using olive leaf extracts, particularly studying a Tunisian variety named 'Chetoui'. The study found that adult 'Chetoui' olive leaf extract had higher phenolic content and methanol was the most effective solvent. Sensory analysis showed that adding OLE (1:100) to table olives was most appealing for consumers.

Comparative Oil Composition Study of the Endemic Moroccan Olive (Olea europaea subsp. maroccana) and Wild Olive (var. Sylvestris) in Central West Morocco

Sara Elgadi et al.

Summary: There are significant differences in oil content and chemical composition between the subspecies maroccana and var. Sylvestris of wild olive trees, with maroccana exhibiting higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids, tocopherols, and phytosterols than var. Sylvestris. This suggests that maroccana oil could potentially be a valuable source of vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and sterols for the local population. More research is needed to further explore the potential nutraceutical benefits of maroccana oil.

Study of Oleaster Oil's Falsification by ATR-FTIR and Chemometrics Tools

Moulouda El Mouftari et al.

Summary: This study creates a reliable model using FTIR and chemometric methods to detect adulteration in oleaster oil. The results demonstrate that a perfect falsification model can be achieved in the spectral region of 3050-2700 cm(-1) for distinguishing between olive oil and soybean oil adulteration, with PLSR showing better results for olive oil and soybean oil adulteration in the range of 1.5% to 40%.
