Abstract One common factor across many economies around the world is their high dependency on petroleum. The chemical sector no exception and considering paramount role that solvents play within this industry they make an ideal focus for investigating green transition potential. This work attempts to shed some light scarce literature regarding quantitative assessment of substitution capacity in target markets, by examining a case study toluene use as industrial cleaning agent its replacement...
Premium extra virgin olive oils (PEVOO) are of exceptional quality and retail at high prices. The green color recently extracted is lost during storage room temperature, mainly because the pheophytinization chlorophylls. Since a perceived as mark high-quality by consumers, it especially important for PEVOO to maintain their initial color. This study assessed effect applying low temperatures (refrigeration freezing) modified atmospheres on four 24 months. Also, two freezing methods (slow...

Fast and effective analytical screening tools providing new suitable authenticity markers applicable to a large number of samples are required efficiently control the global olive oil (OO) production, allow rapid detection low levels adulterants even with fatty acid composition similar OO. The present study aims develop authentication models for comprehensive illegal blends OO including different types high linoleic (HL) oleic (HO) vegetable oils at concentrations (2–10%) based on shotgun...
Catalonia, located in the northeast of Spain, comprises five extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) protected designations origin (PDOs). Despite proximity between them, these PDOs represent unique pedoclimatic conditions and traditional cultivars that are briefly reviewed present manuscript. In addition to compliance with quality standards fixed by product specifications, EVOOs show singular distinctive composition sensory profiles. With aim describe characteristics Catalan EVOOs, their analytical...
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), methylmercury (MeHg+) and butyltins (mono-, di- tri-butyltin, MBT, DBT TBT) were monitored in oysters (Crassostrea sp.) sediments collected different sampling points of the UNESCO reserve biosphere Urdaibai (Bay Biscay) from March 2006 to June 2007. In case oyster samples, concentrations 290–1814 µg kg−1 70–475 75–644 200–1300 (as a sum three butyltins) ranges obtained. most samples TBT was abundant butyltin, followed...
Sentinel organisms like mussels and oysters have been largely used as indicators of the pollution level in water.However, passive samplers semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) are emerging an alternative to use sentinels.SPMDs mimic bioconcentracion hydrophobic organic pollutants fatty tissues without being affected by natural variations spawning events lipid content, providing a simpler matrix for subsequent analysis.The aims this work study compare effectiveness SPMDs implanted clean...
