The fatty acid distribution between the 1,3- and 2-positions of triglycerides was determined in the olive oil set sampled in the Marche region, by using the13C NMR method which applies the DEPT pulse sequence. The results confirmed that the oleic and linoleic acids were not randomly distributed at the 2-position of triacylglycerols but were lower for oleic acid and higher for linoleic acid compared to the theoretical values expected for a random distribution. Moreover, the unsaturated acids deviated from the 2-random distribution at different extents according to the acid concentration of triglyceride.The13C NMR results, they were obtained for three olive oil samples characterized by high, medium and low oleic acid at 2-position (Ofound) corresponding to a low, medium, high deviation rate from the 2-random pattern, were compared to those calculated by the computer program based on the 1,3-random-2-random distribution of fatty acids in the triglycerides.The molar concentrations of the triglyceride species LLL and OLL were calculated from the molar concentrations of oleic and linoleic acids at the 2- and 1,3-positions obtained by using13C NMR and the computer method. The LLL and OLL triglycerides determined by the computer method were found to be markedly higher in the “high Ofound” oil as compared to NMR. No differences were detected between the two methods for both triglyceride species in the “low Ofound” oil.

Abstract Linear models were selected from a large data set acquired for Italian olive oil samples by quantitative 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT). The models were used to determine the composition of the 2 fatty acid pools esterifying the 1,3- and 2-positions of triacylglycerols. The linear models selected proved that the 1,3- and 2-distribution of saturated, oleate, and linoleate chains in olive oil triacylglycerols deviated from the random distribution pattern to an extent that depended on the concentration of the fatty acid in the whole triacylglycerol. To calculate the fatty acid composition of the 1,3- and 2-positions of olive oil triacylglycerols, the equations of the selected linear models were applied to the fatty acid percentages determined by gas chromatography. These data were compared with the values predicted by the computer method (used to determine the theoretical amounts of triacylglycerols), which is based on the 1,3-random-2-random theory of the fatty acid distribution in triacylglycerols. The biggest differences were found in the linoleate chain, which is the chain that deviated the most from a random distribution pattern. The results confirmed that the 1,3-random-2-random distribution theory provides an approximate method for determining the structure of triacylglycerols; however, the linear models calculated by the direct method that applies 13C NMR spectroscopy represent a more precise measurement of the composition of the 2 fatty acid pools esterifying the 1,3- and 2-positions of triacylglycerols.

The Impact

The consumption of an olive oil rich diet has been associated with the diminished incidence of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Several studies have attributed these beneficial effects to oleic acid (C18 n-9), the predominant fatty acid principal component of olive oil. Oleic acid is not an essential fatty acid since it can be endogenously synthesized in humans. Stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) is the enzyme responsible for oleic acid production and, more generally, for the synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). The saturated to monounsaturated fatty acid ratio affects the regulation of cell growth and differentiation, and alteration in this ratio has been implicated in a variety of diseases, such as liver dysfunction and intestinal inflammation. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of the impact of gene-nutrient interactions in liver and gut diseases, by taking advantage of the role of SCD1 and its product oleic acid in the modulation of different hepatic and intestinal metabolic pathways.

Fatty acids and their potassium soaps were screened for their toxicity to different life stages and eggs of the balsam woolly aphid (Adelgespiceae (Ratz.)). The most effective fatty acids for causing aphid mortality were in two major groups, one centering around capric acid (C10) within the low-chain saturated fatty acid series and the other around oleic acid (C18:1), within the unsaturated 18-carbon fatty acids. The potassium soaps were better aphicides than the corresponding acids; the soaps of caprylic, capric, oleic, and linoleic acids were the most effective. Eggs were less sensitive to the soaps than later stages of the aphid, and there was a large variation in their response to the soap treatments. The possibility of using fatty acids and soaps as a control for the balsam woolly aphid is discussed.

The commercial potential of olive oils from three autochthonous olive varieties Bodocal, Racimilla and Negral from Aragón (Spain) has been examined. Physicochemical characteristics, sensory analysis, nutritional composition, color and pigments were considered. The three varieties are generally used for producing table olives or olive oil in coupages but not for the production of monovarietal virgin olive oil. The values of the physicochemical and sensory analysis for the three olive oils corresponded to extra virgin category, however important differences among the three oils were observed in relation to pigment content, color measurements and fatty acid and phenol and tocopherol composition. Several characteristics such as oil yield, fatty acid and phenol and tocopherol content and sensory profiles suggested that some of these oils are of a promising composition. The olive yield of the Bodocal variety was the lowest (17%) and its corresponding oil had the smallest oleic acid (69%), phenols (272 mg gallic acid/kg) and tocopherol (96 mg/kg) contents and not equilibrated sensory parameters. The main characteristics of the Racimilla variety were a very high oil yield (28%) with very high contents in oleic acid (79 %) and phenols (831 mg gallic acid/kg). The oil of the Negral variety had very equilibrated sensory properties and its oleic acid content (76%) was similar to that of Racimilla. Its phenol content (456 mg gallic acid/kg) was between that of the other two varieties and its tocopherol content (190 mg/kg) was the highest. Therefore, the two last varieties could be of great interest for producing monovarietal olive oils.

Olive represents the most widespread fruit cultivated in Algeria. Olive oil is the primary source of added fat in the Mediterranean diet with health benefits of which have been verified for millennia. Interest in phenolic compounds in olive oil has increased due to its antioxidant activity, which plays a very important role in human health. The present study is carried out to study the phenolic compounds and fatty acids profile of some olive oils from western Algeria. The quality parameters (acidity, peroxide value, K232, K270), tocopherol analysis, fatty acid composition and phenolic profile were determined by High performance chromatography (HPLC). The results showed that chemlal oil (SBA) recorded the highest level of tocopherol-α with 228.12 mg/Kg. Regarding the fatty acid composition, oleic acid was the most dominant, oil Oleaster (Bensekrane) records the highest percentage (72.80%) of oleic acid. The quantitative data on the phenolic content of the seven samples revealed that chemlal oil (SBA) had the highest level of polyphenols (328.99 mg/Kg). However, Sigoise oil (Sebra1) was characterized by the highest levels of tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol (15.89 mg/kg and 22.42 mg/kg, respectively). The highest concentrations of oleuropein derivatives and ligstroside derivatives were observed in chemlal oil (SBA) and the recoreded values were 105.97 mg/Kg and 83.49 mg/Kg, respectively. Chemlal oil (SBA) was characterized by the highest amount of lignans (35.93 mg/Kg), luteolin (10.16 mg/Kg) and apigenin (5.44 mg/Kg). Oleocanthal was found in all the tested samples and it was higher in Chemlal oil (102.43 mg/kg).

C6 Cells

Recently, the discovery of natural compounds capable of modulating nervous system function has revealed new perspectives for a healthier brain. Here, we investigated the effects of oleic acid (OA) and hydroxytyrosol (HTyr), two important extra virgin olive oil compounds, on lipid synthesis in C6 glioma cells. OA and HTyr inhibited both de novo fatty acid and cholesterol syntheses without affecting cell viability. The inhibitory effect of the individual compounds was more pronounced if OA and HTyr were administered in combination. A reduction of polar lipid biosynthesis was also detected, while triglyceride synthesis was marginally affected. To clarify the lipid-lowering mechanism of these compounds, their effects on the activity of key enzymes of fatty acid biosynthesis (acetyl-CoA carboxylase-ACC and fatty acid synthase-FAS) and cholesterologenesis (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase-HMGCR) were investigated in situ by using digitonin-permeabilized C6 cells. ACC and HMGCR activities were especially reduced after 4 h of 25 μM OA and HTyr treatment. No change in FAS activity was observed. Inhibition of ACC and HMGCR activities is corroborated by the decrease of their mRNA abundance and protein level. Our results indicate a direct and rapid downregulatory effect of the two olive oil compounds on lipid synthesis in C6 cells.

In this study, a Mobile Olive Oil Processing Unit (TEM Oliomio 500-2GV, Italy) was designed and used for cold press extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) production at optimum conditions. Local olive varieties “Beylik, Tavşan Yüreği, Uslu and Saurani in Antalya, Manisa, and Hatay provinces of Turkey were investigated in the present study. EVOO was stored before and after paper filtration. Generally, no significant change was observed in fatty acid composition during 60 days of storing and filtration had no detectable effect, but there was significant difference among EVOOs which was obtained from different cultivars. Results of this study showed that fatty acid profile of EVOOs was good method for classification of Turkish olive oils. Beylik and Tavşan Yüreği had higher oleic acid content than other cultivars. Saurani EVOO had the highest content of palmitic acid and stearic acid. The highest amount of linoleic acid was detected in EVOO of Uslu (Manisa) with the range of 12.06-12.09%. Olive oil samples were classified as EVOO according to International olive council (IOC) regulations. Turkish virgin olive oils characterized by low linoleic and palmitic, and high oleic acid contents.
