Objective: To study the effects of three weight-maintenance diets with different macronutrient composition on carbohydrate, lipid metabolism, insulin and incretin levels in insulin-resistant subjects.Methods: A prospective was performed eleven (7 W, 4 M) offspring obese type 2 diabetes patients. Subjects had a BMI > 25 Kg/m2, waist circumference (men/women) 102/88, HBA1c < 6.5% were regarded as after an OGTT (Matsuda ISIm <4). They randomly divided into groups underwent dietary periods each...

Olive tree pruning biomass (OTP) and olive mill leaves (OML) are the main residual lignocellulosic biomasses that generated from trees. They have been proposed as a source of value-added compounds biofuels within biorefinery concept. In this work, optimization an ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) process was performed to extract antioxidant present in OTP OML. The effect three parameters, ethanol/water ratio (20, 50, 80% ethanol concentration), amplitude percentage (30, 70%)...

Abstract The olive oil sector generates a high quantity of biomasses every year, especially in the Mediterranean region. Olive pomace is main one, but depending on extraction and subsequent processing, other derived biomass by‐products are generated like pâté, exhausted pomace, stone, residual pulp. Their sustainable valorization crucial. Therefore, this review first conceptualizes current situation describes these from qualitative quantitative point view. Second, information bioactive...

Abstract Olive trees are cultivated in more than 40 countries worldwide over 10 million hectares. In addition to olive oil, a large amount of biomass is produced annually. All this must be adequately handled and disposed of. Conventional disposal methods include direct burning or spreading fields, but has economical costs environmental concerns, as well wasting source energy chemicals. This review summarizes the most recent proposals for use derived from tree cultivation oil production...

Exhausted olive pomace (EOP) is the waste generated from drying and subsequent extraction of residual oil pomace. In this work, effect different aqueous solvents on recovery antioxidant compounds lignocellulosic biomass was assessed. Water selected as best option for recovering bioactive EOP, influence main operational parameters involved in evaluated by response surface methodology. Aqueous EOP under optimised conditions (10% solids, 85 ºC, 90 min) yielded an extract with concentrations...

Olive-derived biomass is not only a renewable bioenergy resource but also it can be source of bioproducts, including antioxidants. In this study, the antioxidant composition extracted olive pomace (EOP) and new byproduct, residual fraction from pit cleaning (RFOPC or pulp) was characterized compared to leafy biomass, which have been extensively studied as antioxidants other bioactive compounds with pharmacological properties. The chemical characterization showed that these byproducts contain...

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) will be a key component of the climate change mitigation efforts to achieve carbon-neutrality goals. Hence, comprehensive assessment CDR potential at national and local levels is crucial identify regional opportunities deploy practical actions timely. This study focuses on function olive agroecosystems in delivering European Mediterranean countries. Relying geospatial existing groves (and associated residual biomass) combined with statistical, process systems...

In this study, a fractionation and valorisation scheme for vine shoots is proposed biofuel lignin production. This agricultural waste was fractionated by acid/organosolv sequential pretreatment. the first step, acid pretreatment optimised at 150ºC 1.2% H2SO4 to release hemicellulosic sugars, of which 76% could be recovered. sugar stream co-fermented E. coli with an ethanol yield higher than 98% after detoxification resins or NH4OH. The solid obtained under optimal conditions delignified...
