The olive oil industry, one of the largest industries in the Mediterranean basin and in other countries around the world, is fundamentally composed of olive groves, olive oil mills, pomace oil extraction plants, and oil refineries. Additionally, there are other types of closely related industries, such as those producing table olives and margarine and industries based on physicochemical transformation to obtain high-value-added products for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutritional, and dietary sectors.Innovative processes and new technologies have been implemented in olive oil mills, oil refineries, and transformation industries in the last decade to improve the olive oil extraction and its quality, as well as to minimise and valorise the generated wastes. In this sense, biofuels (bioethanol, biodiesel, biogas, synthetic gas, etc.) and high-value-added products (tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol, squalene, oleuropein, tocopherols, and others) can be obtained from byproducts and residues from the olive oil and pomace oil extraction processes.This Special Issue, 'Innovations and New Processes in the Olive Oil Industry', brings together 11 high-quality research studies addressing challenges faced in the olive oil industry and related industries, along with comprehensive overviews and in-depth technical research papers addressing recent progress in olive oil and table olive production and the management of different olive oil industry wastes.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...
  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

  • Brain Asymmetry of Structure and/or Function
    Lesley J. Rogers / Lesley JRogers
    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

  • The Epithelialto- Mesenchymal Transition ( EMT ) in Cancer
    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
