SCOPES OF OUR RESEARCH
Development of a feasible and cost effective methodology for the recovery of olive leaves phenolic
compounds.
Determination of the optimum controlled conditions, for the production of 3-hydroxytyrosol with an
easy-to- apply method.
Study and development on novel applications of phenolic compounds in non-food, non-drug and non-
cosmetic applications.
Integrated management of wastes with the parallel production of high value products. Establishment of environmental friendly techniques for the separation of high value products from
agricultural wastes.
STATE OF THE ART
Phenolic compounds, known as “polyphenols”, have attracted the attention of research community due to
their beneficial action in human health.
Their physical role is to provide protection in plants against pathogens, predators or/and stress caused by
abiotic factors such as such as hydric deficiency, salinity, low fertilization and climatic conditions.
These molecules have been recognized for their anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial
- actions. In 2012, EU Committee established a list of permitted health claims made on foods, based on
scientific research made by EFSA. This was a basic factor, in order to become extra virgin oil for its health benefits.
In 2017, EU published Regulation 2017/2373, through which authorized the placing on the market of
hydroxytyrosol as a novel food ingredient intended for the general population, excluding children under the age of three years, pregnant women, and lactating women. (hydroxytyrosol (HT) as a food additive to fish and vegetable oils up to 215 mg/kg and to margarines up to 175 mg/kg).
HT, may be found in many plants. Olea europeaea has a high concentration of this molecule. Olive oil, olive
mill waste and leaves are the main sources for the extraction this compound.
Although HT is expensive, there is no industrial activity in this field.
ACID HYDROLYSIS OF OLEUROPEIN
Recovery of polyphenols from olive leaves is an important challenge for food and pharmaceutical industrial applications. Oleuropein is the major phenolic compound in olive leaves, and large amounts of HT can be obtained using hydrolysis of
- leuropein. HT production requires enzymatic or chemical hydrolysis. The natural mechanism that occurs when the olive
tree forms free HT is enzymatic hydrolysis, and specific native β-glycosidase and esterase are implicated. On the contrary, acid hydrolysis is the more used mechanism in the laboratory and industrial processes.
METHODOLOGY
