Sterol composition of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) seed oil: the effect of cultivar
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The effect of cultivar on sterol composition of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) seed oil from three industrial cultivars (Principe Borghese, Rebelion F1 and San Marzano) grown in Calabria Region (Southern Italy) was investigated. Sterol composition is presented both as percentage on the total sterol content (%) and as an absolute value (mg/kg). Rebelion F1 produced the worst seed oil in terms of cholesterol content (15.76%, 275.90 mg/kg). Principe Borghese produced the oil with the highest β-sitosterol (57.47%, 1088.33 mg/kg) and the highest apparent β-sitosterol (67.59%, 1279.62 mg/kg). One-way ANOVA and PCA analyses demonstrated a high and significant difference among the seed oils of the studied tomato cultivars.

Evaluation and Analysis of the Ultrasound-Assisted Extracted Tomato Seed Oil
Approximately 10-30% of tomatoes are wasted during processing. Tomato pomace consists of crushed skin and seeds of tomatoes. Seeds might be considered as a potential source of vegetable oil. The extracted oil is high in unsaturated fatty acids, namely linoleic acid. The extracted oil after purification or refining might be employed for consumption. The object of this study was to evaluate the e...

Studies on the effectiveness of various sterilants and culture conditions on in-vitro seed germination in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cv. PKM-1 revealed that among three sterilants used, surface sterilization of seeds with 5 % NaOCl for 20 minutes was found to be more effective resulting in high germination rate and contamination free cultures. Similarly among the different media and cultu...

Extended Abstract Introduction: Seed germination is one of the most important factors which determine the success of failure of crop establishment. In the absence of other environmental limiting factors such as moisture, temperature would determine the rate and overall seed germination. This research was conducted to investigate the effect of temperature regimes on seed germination, quantify t...
