Olive Oil - Constituents, Quality, Health Properties and Bioconversions




Olive Oil - Constituents, Quality, Health Properties and Bioconversions


Olive Oil - Constituents, Quality, Health Properties and Bioconversions
The health effects of olive oil are attributed to its high content of monounsaturated
fatty acids and the presence of some minor components, which have become the
subject of intensive research over a short period of time. Efforts focus mainly on minor
constituents of virgin olive oil with biological importance or on those which affect the
organoleptic properties and contribute to its remarkable oxidative stability. Further
research is expected to provide new insight into the role of each class of olive oil minor
constituents, possible synergism and the magnitude of the contribution of the various
bioactive ingredients to the overall positive heath impact in fighting disease.
This book presents some important aspects of the current state of the art in the
chemistry, analysis and quality assessment of olive oil and its minor constituents,
extraction of olive oil from the fruits, water treatment, and innovative approaches for
the production of olive oil based products. It also discusses bioavailabilIty and
pharmacological and other properties of bioactive ingredients in the light of new
evidence for the composition of olive oil. It also covers also some aspects related to
biotechnology and other technologies to retain optimum levels of such bioactive
ingredients in the various olive oil forms and to protect the environment from olive
mills waste products.
