This study investigates the effect of soursop flowers methanolic extract on the physicochemical characteristics of palm olein during accelerated storage. After analysis of the extract by determining its total phenolic content by colorimetry and identification of some of its phenolic antioxidants by HPLC-DAD(Diode Array Detector), preliminary antioxidants tests have been done. After that, the ex...

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of the volatile oil from Thymus vulgaris L. aerial flowering parts was performed under different conditions of pressure, temperature, mean particle size and CO(2) flow rate and the correspondent yield and composition were compared with those of the essential oil isolated by hydrodistillation (HD). Both the oils were analyzed by GC and GC-MS and 52 components...

in this study, antioxidant activity of kolkhung skin oil, baneh skin oil and seasame oil were compared. the ratio between polyunsaturated to saturated fatty acids (pufa/sfa) of kolkhung skin oil, bane skin oil and seasame seed oil were 0.52, 0.26 and 3.06, respectively. total phenolic contents of kolkhung skin oil, bane skin oil and seasame seed oil were 99.67, 645.73 and 81.72 mg/kg, respectiv...

Vegetable oils extracted from seeds and oleaginous fruits are a substantial source of bioactive compounds. In this study, some fruit by-products were investigated their composition properties compared. Apricot (ASO), melon (MSO), watermelon (WSO) seed by cold pressing. The physico-chemical parameters the contents pigments assessed using standard methods. values revealed purity it was recorded t...

Ethnobotanical investigations on local oilseed species in Burkina Faso revealed that oils from tree oilseeds are frequently used for food, cosmetics and traditional medicine by local people. To test the bio-preservative capacity, the effect of the oilseed extracts on the stabilization of Shea butter was evaluated. Levels of bioactive phyto-components were evaluated through several methods. Some...

The oil of debittered and dehulled grains from two Andean lupins (Lupinus mutabilis) Peru, Andenes Común,was extracted by expeller press. extraction yield the proximal composition both varieties were assessed. cake, as well defatted flour variety with highest yield, werecharacterised for physico-chemical properties, total polyphenol content antioxidant capacity. shelf-life at 25 °C was extrapol...
