Canarium ovatum oil Engl. (pili nut oil) was extracted by using cold press method and then the physico-chemical properties of the oil samples, roasted pili nut oil (RPNO) and unroasted pili nut oil (UPNO) such as iodine value (IV), peroxide value (PV), acid value (% FFA), solid fat content (SFC), fatty acid composition and triacylglycerol (TAG) composition were determined. The percentage of oil...
