The lubricating properties of vegetable oil are well known. However, with the advent of petroleum oils, castor oil and other vegetable oils fell out of favor. The quality of petroleum oils has improved significantly in the last few years with the introduction of Group III base oils. However, even Group III oils fall short of the inherent lubricity of vegetable oils. Analogous to advances in pet...

Triacylglycerol (TAG) composition in vegetable oils was collaboratively analyzed in 9 laboratories using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with a refractive index detector. Dococyl (C22) and triacontyl (C30) silica columns were used for analysis. The TAG molecular species in soybean, rapeseed, and palm oils were individually separated on the chromatogram. The collaborative ...

Epoxidized vegetable oils are the product of vegetable oil epoxidation reactions. Since the epoxidized vegetable oil is a nonpoisonous plasticizer, it has been wildly used in the plastic packaging of food and medicine. Among the various epoxidized vegetable oils, the application of epoxidized soybean oil is broader than others. Nowadays, it’s the third largest category of plasticizers. However,...

and selective hydrogenation of liquid oils is practiced to change the physical proper~ies for solid fat products or to improve the stability of highly unsaturated oils during high temperature use. Hydrogenated ' vegetable oils are used in the formulation of shortenings, margarines, salad/cooking oils, and other foods. In the United States, the total consumption of visible and non-visible fat is...

in order to comparing influence of ten vegetable oils for optimizing clodinafop-propargyl efficacy, a greenhouse experiment of dose-response including 0, 8, 16, 32, 48, and 64 g a.i. ha-1 of clodinafop-propargyl at eleven level of without vegetable oil and with vegetable oils of sunflower, soybean, canola, turnip, cotton, sesame, bitter almond, sweet almond, castor and olive in control of littl...

Polyphenols are potent antioxidants that are particularly abundant in the Mediterranean diet, with olive oil being the main fat source. A number of investigations have reported that phenolic compounds found in dietary oils are antioxidants and could provide protective effects by inhibiting DNA oxidative damage. However, few studies have been published on the biological activity of vegetable oil...

IDENTIFICATION OF A MARKET Developing a new market for an established international crop like canola (Brassica napus L., Brassica rapa L., Brassicaceae) requires significant care and study. Canola has been identified by several authors as a highly desirable food oil. Canola oils are relatively rich in monounsaturated fatty acids and with small percentages of both saturated and polyunsaturated f...

Vegetable oils are essential in our daily diet. Among various vegetable oils, the major difference lies in the composition of fatty acids, including unsaturated fatty acids (USFA) and saturated fatty acids (SFA). USFA include oleic acid (OA), linoleic acid (LA), and α-linolenic acid (ALA), while SFA are mainly palmitic acid (PA). In this study, the most typical and abundant USFA present with PA...
