Request PDF Screw press extraction of Sacha inchi seeds: Oil yield and its chemical composition and antioxidant properties In this work, the effects of operating parameters, such as drying
Sacha inchi is an oilseed crop that shows high oil content and it is an excellent source of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The highest extraction yield obtained was 30% under the conditions of
Supercritical CO2 extraction of omega-3 rich oil
The global extraction yields (X0), oil solubility, fatty acid composition of the oil and tocopherol content were determined. The seed samples used in this work contained 54.3% oil, of which 50.5%
We performed a pilot, experimental, open study in order to know the effect, effective dosage and secondary effects of sacha inchi´s (Plukenetia Huallabamba) oil on the lipid profiles of patients with hypercholesterolemia. We included 24 patients of ages 35 to 75, to whom we measured tota
Supercritical CO2 extraction of omega-3 rich oil from
Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO 2) was employed to extract omega-3 rich oil from Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) seeds and partially defatted cake. For ground seeds, the supercritical extraction was carried out at temperatures of 40, 50 and 60 °C and pressures of 300 and 400 bar, and for the cold pressed partially defatted cake, the extraction was carried out with 300 bar
1. Introduction. Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.), also known as Inca peanut or Inca inchi, is a perennial, climbing, woody, oleaginous plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, native to the rain forest of South America (Gillespie, 1993, Gillespie, 2007, Hamaker et al., 1992).Sacha inchi seeds are rich in oil (41–54%) and proteins (25–27%) (Gutiérrez et al., 2011, Hamaker et al., 1992).
Sacha Inchi Oil Press Machine to Extract Oil at Low Cost
Shelling: This process is to remove the shell of sacha inchi seeds and get the kernels. Crushing: Use professional equipment to crush the sacha inchin kernels into small pieces so as to ensure higher oil output in the next process. Pressing: This is the heart of sacha inchi oil extraction process.Usually, the screw oil press expeller is recommended since it is easy to use and requires no
3. Results and discussion3.1. Effects of enzyme. This study investigated the extraction of sacha inchi seed oil using different enzymes. As shown in Table 1, the enzymatic extraction produced a substantially higher oil yield than did the extraction without enzyme.This might be due to the degradation of plant materials (cell membranes and cell walls of plant seeds, which provide a strong
Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) oil composition
Sacha inchi is an oilseed crop that shows high oil content and it is an excellent source of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Temperature and pressure can influence in lipid composition on the subcritical extraction with n-propane.The highest extraction yield obtained was 30% under the conditions of 60 °C and 12 MPa.The extracted oil presented 442 mg of fatty acid g −1 in terms of
The effect of roasting of Sacha-inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) seeds on the oxidative stability and composition of its oil was investigated. The seeds were subjected to light, medium and high roasting intensities. Oil samples were subjected to high-temperature storage at 60 °C for 30 days and evaluated for oxidation (peroxide value and p-anisidine), antioxidant activity (total phenols and
