At the Institute of Marine Research, experts in nutrition and fish health are investigating whether extracts from olive leaves can modulate resilience to viral diseases. The hypothesis is that by including olive leaf extracts in the salmon diet, the fish become less sick when infected with a virus. Finding ways that can contribute to
The pharmaceutical technique research group of University of Florence (UNIFI) developed different nanocarriers (microemulsions, solid dispersions and polymeric micelles) to enhance solubility, permeability and pharmaceutical properties of oleanolic acid (OA), a triterpene enriched extract (TTPs ext) and an oleuropein extract (OLE) (Figure 1). All these formulations were tested in terms of water solubility, storage
The past few months saw the annual olive harvesting spree. The endeavour starts at slow pace only to quickly escalate into a frenzy of overburdened farmers who generally call upon the strength of the whole family to get the job done. Most employ every possible hand at their disposal which means that many will concentrate
Halfway through OLEAF4VALUE: from the valorisation of olive leaves to the exploitation of high value-added biobased products OLEAF4VALUE is a BBI-JU, H2020-funded EU project that aims to extend the useful life of olive leaves, solving the problem of their removal from the fields while obtaining high added-value bioactive products with high-market potential. The project will
IPB group has developed different Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) to aid with the production of tailor made bioproducts from diverse olive leaf extracts. The IPB work comprise the design, synthesis, characterization and testing of MIPs to target secoiridoids, triterpenic acids, flavonoids and lignans. The developed MIP particles were tested with the processing of different kinds
The Biomass Area of CENER (National Renewable Energy Centre of Spain) is convinced of the need to move towards a circular bioeconomy, in which the society is capable of valorising the wastes produced in an integral and cascade mode. On that regard, CENER is running its Biorefinery and Bioenergy Centre (BIO2C), semi-industrial pilot scale test
Did you know that Agriculture provides most of the world's food and fabrics? Most of us are familiar with the term "Agriculture", however, do we actually know how meaningful its significance is? Are we actually aware of how important this term can be to our daily living? According to World Bank
About Ingecor Founded in 2006, has its origins in the agroforestry management of the land. Ingecor's founding team has more than 15 years of experience in the forestry and agricultural sector. Its principal activity is this moment is management, storage and logistics of biomass for supply to electric power production plant.
OLEICOLA EL TEJAR, partner of the OLEAF4VALUE project, is a second-tier agricultural cooperative whose corporate purpose is the integral use of olive by-products, especially the wet pomace resulting from the olive-oil milling industry. It was set up in 1967 by a group of five cooperatives and currently has 240 associated entities
The first presential general assembly of the OLEAF4VALUE project was held on 22-24 June, after two first online versions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This GA was held in the town of Hervás (Extremadura, Spain), where the coordinator, NATAC, has an extraction factory equipped with the latest technology and located in
