双边栝蒌种子油含量及其脂肪酸的测定 . DETERMINATION OF OIL CONTENT AND FATTY ACIDS IN TRICHOSANTHES ROSTHORNII SEEDS

Abstract

OBJECTIVE To analyze the oil content and fatty acids composition in Trichosanthes rosthornii seeds.METHODS The content and composition were determined by gravimetric analysis and GC-MS.RESULTS The oil content in Trichosanthes rosthornii seeds was 31.24%.Among the fatty acids,linoleic acid and oleic acid were dominant.The unsaturated fatty acids accounted for 90.48% of the total acids,and the major saturated fatty acids were palmitic acid and stearic acid.CONCLUSION The oil in Trichosanthes rosthornii seed is of high-quality,and the analysis results provide scientific basis for further exploitation and utilization of the oil in Trichosanthes rosthornii seeds
