Opis

General description

Olive oil is extracted from the fruit of the olive tree. Oleic acid, phenolic compounds, and squalene are the key constituents of olive oil.[1]

Application

Olive oil has been used:

• as a source of energy and carbon in the medium for lipase and biosurfactant production[2]
• in pharmacological preparations of exemestane and estradiol[3]
• in preparation of wax-oil lubricants to reduce the shear between skin and personal protective equipment (PPE)[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Olive oil has a wide range of therapeutic and culinary applications.[1] It is used as a source of fat in Mediterranean food. The anti-atherogenic effects of olive oil can contribute to the low rate of cardiovascular mortality.[5] Long-term consumption of olive oil is proven to be good for human health and it aids in preventing breast cancer, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.[6]

The health benefits of olive oil result from its higher proportion of monounsaturated fats, as well as its antioxidant constituents: hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein and oleocanthal.
