“…The lack of activity of the oils is an important data, as there is a growing interest on the use of the ozonated sunflower oil for antimicrobial purposes [11] [ 12]. Our data suggests that it might be not as effective as expected, making the antimicrobial susceptibility testing even more relevant.…”

Sunflower oil is known for its therapeutic properties and culinary use. It is an important alimentary source of tocopherol and unsaturated fatty acids, and is used especially for wound healing. Studies indicate that it also has antimicrobial potential. The ozonation of oils of vegetable sources has been explored as a way to enhance their therapeutic properties; however, studies that provide evidence of such benefits are still lacking. In the field of veterinary medicine, such data are even more scarce. In this study, the antimicrobial activity of ozonated sunflower oil was compared to that of non-ozonated oil, in an in vitro system. We used clinical isolates of Escherichia coli, obtained from intrauterine lavages of mares with endometritis. Tests were conducted using the minimum inhibitory concentration method. Our data open doors for discussion on the use of sunflower oil, with or without ozone treatment, for therapeutic purposes in veterinary medicine.

“…Considering the worldwide top 3 oilseed crops (sunflower, soybean, and rapeseed), sunflower ( H. annuus ) is referred to as being one of the most profitable and providing the highest quality end products [ 47 ]. Sunflower seeds and sunflower seed oil are characterized by their high content in amino acids, tocopherols (namely α-tocopherol), flavonoids (apigenin, luteolin, quercetin, and kaempferol), phenolic acids (caffeic, caffeoylquinic, coumaric, gallic, ferulic, and sinapic), and fatty acids (eicosanoid, lauric, linoleic, linolenic, oleic, palmitic, stearic) [ 47 , 48 , 49 ]. Several medicinal applications, such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory activities, and wound-healing properties, were attributed to the use of seeds and the seed-extracted oils from sunflowers [ 48 , 50 ].…”

Up-to-Date Overview of the Use of Natural Ingredients in Sunscreens

The photoprotective skincare segment is in high demand to meet consumer concerns on UV-induced skin damage, with a recent trend towards sunscreen alternatives with a natural origin. In this study, the use of natural ingredients, either from terrestrial or marine origin, in a panel of 444 sunscreen commercial formulations (2021) was analyzed. Ingredients from terrestrial organisms represent the large majority found in the analyzed sunscreen formulations (48%), whereas marine ingredients are present only in 13% of the analyzed products. A deeper analysis regarding the most prevalent families of ingredients from terrestrial and marine organisms used as top ingredients is also presented, as well as their mechanisms of action. This study provides an up-to-date overview of the sunscreen market regarding the use of natural ingredients, which is of relevance for scientists involved in the development of new sunscreens to identify opportunities for innovation.

“…The performance of this plant cultivated in Asia, Africa and in the Caribbean is remarkable when compared to sunflowers possessing two mutations. One of these is Es1 (the sunflower stearoyl-ACP desaturase [SAD named SAD17]), which cannot accumulate more than 50% stearate (Salas et al, 2021), and its oil must be refined before use.…”

Currently, there is a growing demand to replace the compounds in a given product that are of a petroleum origin with renewable resources. One of these compounds, called fatty acid (FA), is the main component of vegetable oils. FA composition is not only responsible for the physicochemical properties of plant oils, but it also determines their uses. For example, since time immemorial, products containing lipids have been used for lighting and heating purposes. They are also excellent lubricants and possess drying properties important molecules for painting, and wood preservation. In terms of nutrition, they have a high-energy content, are part of our daily health requirements, and are used for animal feed. We present here some lipids of interest, the plants that produce them naturally with high yield, the enzymes responsible for their synthesis when known, and their possible uses, as well as resources and ways that could allow the lipids of interest to be produced in quantity in different hosts.
