  • The total sterol contents in sesame seed oil were 540 mg/100 g oil. This value is in agreement with the findings of Crews et al. (2006). Table 4. Sterol (%) composition of Moroccan sesame seed oils and from other geographical origin. Sabah El Khier et al. (2008). Ünal and Yalçn (2008). 3.2.4. Tocopherols composition
  • Is Tadla-Azilal suitable for producing high quality sesame seed oil?
  • The present investigation indicates that the region of Tadla-Azilal in Morocco is suitable to produce high quality sesame seed oil whose composition is comparable with the best elsewhere-produced sesame seed oils or other commonly used vegetable oils.
  • Where are sesame seeds grown?
