Title: [Analysis of physicochemical property and composition of fatty acid of almond oil]. Author: Shi Z, Fu Q, Chen B, Xu S. Journal: Se Pu; 1999 Sep; 17(5):506-7. PubMed ID: 12552899. Abstract: Almond oil was extracted from almond and saponified with saturated KOH-methanol. The mixed fatty acids methylated by methanol-H2SO4(4:1, V/V). Methyl esters were extracted by ether and detected by gas chromatography. The major fatty acids in Taiyuan almond oil were found to be about 68% oleic acid (C18:1), 25% linoleic acid(C18:2), 4.6%-4.8% palmitic acid(C16:0) and a little of palmitoleic acid(C16:1), stearic acid(C18:0). A trace of arachidic acid(C20:0) was also found.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
