Yield and quality of chia oil extracted via different methods
Extraction of the chia oil using a cold solvent was performed according to Timilsena et al. (2017). The ground chia seed was mixed with n -hexane in a ratio of 1:10 (chia seed: solvent). To intensify the cold extraction yield, pretreatment of the sample was performed for 15, 30 and 60 min in an ultrasonic bath.
Abstract. Chia seed ( Salvia hispanica L.) is widely cultivated in Latin America and Australia for its oils that are known for health-promoting characteristics due to the high content of omega-3 α-linolenic acid ( ω -3 ALA) and other polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Chia seed oil is obtained from the seed through different extraction
Consumption of a Byproduct of Chia Seed Oil Extraction by
The byproduct of Salvia hispanica (chia) seed oil extraction by cold pressing, also known as expeller, possesses a high nutritional value. It is rich in proteins, fibers, minerals, and has a residual oil content of 7–11%, which is rich in omega 3 linolenic acid (ALA). However, this byproduct has been historically undervalued. Thus, the aim of current work was to study the effects of
The increasing demand for superfoods has resulted in an increase in chia seeds consumption. The reintroduction of this ancient crop in agriculture is useful to ensure food security since it can grow in high-stress conditions. The current study aimed to characterize chia seeds, cold-pressed oil, and defatted cake (the oil extraction by-product) to improve their value and to meet consumer’s
Effect of soxhlet and cold press extractions on the physico
While peroxide values of roasted and non-roasted chia seed oils obtained by cold press changed between 3.65 (non-roasted) and 14.12 meqO2/kg (roasted), peroxide values of chia seed oils extracted by Soxhlet extraction system were determined between 2.17 (non-roasted) and 8.53 meqO2/kg (roasted). Total wax contents of chia seed oils ranged between 56.74 mg/kg (roasted seed oil obtained by cold
Total wax contents of chia seed oils ranged between 56.74 mg/kg (roasted seed oil obtained by cold press system) to 138.87 mg/kg (non-roasted seed oil extracted by Soxhlet extraction).
Effect of soxhlet and cold press extractions on the physico
Oil was extracted from the chia seeds using cold press method. After extraction, the oil was allowed to stand for sedimentation period of 1 week in order to remove solid impurities. After that, the oil was filtered and kept in sealed dark coloured bottles under nitrogen at 4 °C. Soxhlet extraction Chia seeds were ground and extracted for 6 h
The current study aimed to characterize chia seeds, cold-pressed oil, and defatted cake (the oil extraction by-product) to improve their value and to meet consumer’s expectations (low-fat products). Chia seeds presented a significantly higher energy value than cake (444 vs. 284 kcal/100 g, respectively) due to fat removal (33 vs. 7%).
Composition and oxidative stability of oil from Salvia
In turn, fluid extraction at 70°C was effective in the extraction of squalene and the quality of oil extracted by this method was comparable to cold pressed oil. Practical applications: Chia seeds contain a large amount of oil (from 25 to 35%), which is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, mainly α-linolenic and linoleic acids, with share of
The current study aimed to characterize chia seeds, cold-pressed oil, and defatted cake (the oil extraction by-product) to improve their value and to meet consumer’s expectations (low-fat products).
