Kombic acid,a hydroquinone polyisoprenoic carboxylic acid from Pycnanthus kombo seed fat

The fat of the seeds from the West African tree Pycnanthus kombo contains ca 20% of a hitherto undescribed compound. This compound was identified as 16(2′,5′-dihydroxy-3′-methylphenyl)-2,6,10,14-tetramethyl-2,6,10,14-hexadecatetraenoic acid, for which the name kombic acid is proposed.     

Interconversion of trans, trans and cis, trans farnesol by enzymes from Andrographis

When trans, trans-farnesol [4,8,12-¹⁴C₃,1-³H₂] is isomerized to cis, trans-farnesol by soluble enzymes from Andrographis paniculata tissue cultures, 50% of the tritium label is lost. The same loss is observed when isomerization occurs in the opposite direction. This is in accordance with the proposed mechanism for isomerization via aldehydes.

Taxonomy of Pinus species based on the seed oil fatty acid compositions

 The fatty acid compositions of the seed oils from ten pine species have been established by capillary gas-liquid chromatography of the methyl esters. With regard to either normal fatty acids or Δ5-olefinic acids, the general pattern of fatty acids did not differ from that of other pine seed oils reported previously. The main fatty acid was linoleic (9,12–18:2) acid (44.4–57.1%), followed by either oleic (9–18:1) acid (13.4–24.5%) or pinolenic (5,9,12–18:3) acid (1.5–25.2%). When applying multivariate analyses to the chemometric data (13 variables) of 49 pine species (ca. 40% of the living pine species), it was possible to distinguish between several sections: Pinea, Longifolia, Halepensis, Ponderosa-Banksiana, Sylvestris, and Cembra. The latter section was clearly divided into two sub-groups. A few species that presented a low overall content of Δ5-olefinic acids, and that grow in warm-temperate regions, were isolated from the bulk of other pine species. It is hypothesized that Δ5-olefinic acids might be related to cold-acclimation. Received: 5 June 1997 / Accepted: 17 August 1997

花椒种籽油的脱色方法研究

选择不同的脱色方法分别对处理方式不同的花椒种子籽油进行脱色实验,结果表明,化学脱色法对不同处理的花椒种籽油都有脱色能力。但由于未从根本上除去油中的色素和其它使油色加深的物质反而增大了油的粘度,碱为地的脱色效果明显较化学脱色法,处理后的油色可以满足食品及工业用油对色度的要求;脱蜡碱炼后进行吸附剂脱色的实验表明,如处置不当油的色度不会下降反而可能升高,蛋白质类发生降解形成了油溶性的红褐色物质,是导致花椒种籽油色泽加深的主要原因。
