The effects of temperature and contact time on lipid extraction from sunflower collets was investigated in a batch extractor with hexane as solvent. The total removed material varied in quantity and composition due to ...

Some minor constituents of honey samples were determined through a fluorometric-chemical characterization method and related multifactorially with their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas ...

The major fatty acids of peanut oil acylglycerols are palmitic (C16:0), oleic (C18:1), and linoleic (C18:2) acids, and only a trace amount of linolenic fatty acid (C18:3) is present. Thus they have a very convenient oxidative ...

Sunflower oil is one of the most frequently consumed oils in the world. Its processing and storage conditions are very important since they can influence the oil quality by varying the quantity and proportion of its minor ...

The aim of this work was to analyse the effect of moisture content of sunflower expanded material on the quality of the extracted oil by determining its wax, phospholipids and tocopherol content and composition. Sunflower ...

The ethanolic extraction of oil from sunflower collets was studied and compared with previous data where hexane was used as extraction solvent. First, the extractive power of ethanol was determined by Soxhlet. It gave a ...
