Apricot kernel characterization, oil extraction, and its utilization: a
Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernels, one of the economical stone fruit kernels, are utilized worldwide for edible, cosmetic, and medicinal purposes. Oil from the apricot kernel is valued by the richness of unsaturated fatty acids, the high proportion of oleic acids, phenols, and tocopherol content. Oil yield with quality from apricot kernel varies with region, variety, and adopted method of
In addition to being consumed as a fruit, the kernel of apricots is widely utilized for edible, cosmetic, and medicinal purposes. The oil extracted from apricot kernel is rich in unsaturated fatty
Apricot Kernel: Bioactivity, Characterization, Applications, and Health
Apricot kernel, a by-product of apricot fruit, is a rich source of proteins, vitamins, and carbohydrates. Moreover, it can be used for medicinal purposes and the formation of food ingredients. Several techniques have been adopted for the extraction of bioactive compounds from the apricot kernel such as solvent extraction, ultra-sonication
Abstract. Apricots ( Prunus armeniaca L.) are valuable resources for functional foods and nutraceuticals. Recently, apricot seed/kernel has become popular as a nonconventional source of high-oleic oil. Different extraction techniques have been used to extract oil from the apricot kernel; however, cold pressing is reported to retain a higher

Apricot kernel, a by-product of apricot fruit, is a rich source of proteins, vitamins, and carbohydrates. Moreover, it can be used for medicinal purposes and the formation of food ingredients. Several techniques have been adopted for the extraction of bioactive compounds from the apricot kernel such as solvent extraction, ultra-sonication, enzyme-assisted, microwave-assisted, and aqueous
Apricot ( Prunus armeniaca L.) is classified under the Prunus species of Prunodae sub family of the Rosaceae family of the Rosales group and is widely cultivated in the Mediterranean and Central Asia. The plant is well known for its medicinal and economical importance. The high production of apricot fruits generates a huge quantity of apricot
Apricot kernel characterization, oil extraction, and its ..., Springer
Apricot fruit has an average weight in the range of 8.0–15.1 g, which gives about 12.7–22.2% stone recovery after the removal of the pulp. Apricot stones contain about 30.7–33.7% of the kernel (Gupta et al., 2012). Apricot ker-nels are rich sources of essential nutrients that are beneficial for the human body.
Different extraction techniques have been used to extract oil from the apricot kernel; however, cold pressing is reported to retain a higher level of bioactive components in apricot kernel oil (AKO). Cold pressed AKO is known as a good source of edible quality vegetable oil due to its nutritionally important fatty acids such as oleic
A comparative study of apricot kernel oil yield using different
The effects of the pressing, ultrasonic-assisted extraction, and Soxhlet extraction methods on the oil yield of apricot kernels were compared. The composition of the apricot kernel oil was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) and its physicochemical properties were analyzed. A visual summary of the technical route used in
Effects of process parameters on extraction of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernel oil with supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO 2) were investigated.The parameters included particle size (mean particle diameter < 0.425–1.5 mm), solvent flow rate (1–5 g/min), pressure (300–600 bar), temperature (40–70 °C) and co-solvent concentration (up to 3.0 wt.% ethanol).
