The Enzymology of Castor Oil Biosynthesis
The castor plant Ricinus communis L., Euphorbiaceae produces seeds containing a unique oil. Castor oil is the only commodity vegetable oil that contains significant amounts of hydroxy fatty acid. This fatty acid is ricinoleic acid (12-hydroxy oleic acid) (Fig. 1) and it comprises up to 90% of the total fatty acid (FA) content of castor oil. Due to the physical and chemical properties imparted b...
متن کاملBiochemical aspects of castor oil biosynthesis.
Castor oil is 90% ricinoleate (12-hydroxy-oleate) and has numerous industrial uses. Components of castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) pose serious problems to processors. We are evaluating two complementary approaches to providing a safe source of castor oil.
متن کاملBiodegradation of Polyurethane Derived from Castor Oil
The aim of this research was to study the biodegradation of a polymer derived from castor oil, which is a renewable, natural material that is a practical alternative for the replacement of traditional polyurethane foams. Due to its molecular structure, which contains polyester segments derived from vegetable oil, the polymeric surface is susceptible to microorganism attack. This study tested th...
متن کاملTransdermal Absorption of Castor Oil
With the current high level of interest in patches to deliver drugs across the skin, the concept of external applications for delivery of medicinal substances is becoming widely accepted. This study evaluated the potential for transdermal absorption of castor oil, a treatment modality recommended by Edgar Cayce. Specific epoxydicarboxylic acids are known to be excreted via the urine when castor...
متن کاملExtraction, Characterization and Modification of Castor Seed Oil
This paper carried out experimental study, through extraction and characterization of both crude and refined castor oil. Normal hexane was used as solvent for the extraction process. The oil produced was refined through degumming, neutralization and bleaching process using local adsorbent (activated clay). The characterization analysis revealed that tested parameters, which include specific gra...
