• Cuticular lipids of insects as potential biofungicides

  Publication

  • A. Oleszczak

  - Year 2012

  The term ''lipids'' refers to fatty acids, their derivatives and substances related with them biochemically or by the functions in the body. Lipids include compounds with different chemical structure. There are lipids with structures based on long-chain carboxylic acids and their direct derivatives, namely: fatty acids, alkanes, some alkenes, aldehydes and long chain alcohols and their derivatives (esters). The variety of lipid...

  - Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences - Year 2011

  Prezentowana publikacja przeglądowa omawia aktualne podejście do oznaczania związków zawartych w olejach roślinnych. W ciągu ostatniej dekady zwraca się zdecydowanie większą uwagę na dietę uwzględniając oleje i tłuszcze jako źródła zdrowej energii. Jednym z głównych problemów związanych z tłuszczami są reakcje utleniania, których konsekwencją może być znaczne obniżenie wartości odżywczych olejów roślinnych. Publikacja przedstawia...

  - Journal of Insects as Food and Feed - Year 2023

  As the global population continues to grow, traditional protein sources like meat and fish are becoming increasingly unsustainable due to their environmental impact. Edible insects, on the other hand, are highly nutritious, require minimal resources to produce, and emit significantly fewer greenhouse gases than traditional livestock. Lepidoptera, one of the most diverse insect orders, contains some popular edible species that have...

  - Year 2011

  Application of natural polymers to forming edible films for food applications has been reviewed. Due to the hydrophilic nature of proteins and polysaccharides, films prepared from these polymers are too susceptible to moisture. Modification of them with critically selected a suitable compounds can result in their improved functional properties and making them useful for food packaging.

  - FOOD CHEMISTRY - Year 2018

  The growing demand for wholesome and nutritious food leads to intensification of production, which in turn can have a detrimental effect on quality and well-being of consumers. For that reason, it is important to develop novel methods of food control which would be characterized by a short time of analysis, adequate sensitivity and relatively low cost. One such technique involves the use of multi-sensory devices called electronic...
