In the world of natural compounds and health-boosting elements, few have garnered as much attention and scientific interest as oleuropein. Derived from the olive tree (Olea europaea), this powerful polyphenol has been at the center of numerous studies, unveiling many potential health benefits that have captured the attention of both researchers and consumers alike.
Olive leaves have been underutilized primarily due to limited awareness of their health benefits, overshadowed by the popularity of olives and olive oil in culinary traditions. There are many challenges in processing techniques, regulatory constraints, and limited research development and consumer awareness which also contribute to their infrautilization. In this article, we would like

BioReCer aims to ensure the environmental performance and traceability of the biological feedstock used by the bio-based industries, deploying guidelines to strengthen the current certification schemes. Within this approach, the added value, the use, as well as social acceptance of bioproducts will be increased. To fulfil this goal, BioReCer is structured in three main technological
Threat of Xylella Fastidiosa Xylella fastidiosa is a bacterial plant pathogen transmitted by xylem fluid-feeding insects, specifically the spittlebug (Philaenus spumarius). The bacterium colonizes the xylem vessels of the plant, blocking the uptake of the nutrients and water essential for plant health. Once this happens, severe symptoms of Xylella become apparent. As there is currently
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) measures the environmental impact of a process, product, or service. With the information obtained from the LCA, it is possible to identify areas of opportunity where the process, product or service can be improved, not only reducing the negative environmental impact but also finding gaps where resources are being wasted
