  • What are the physicochemical characteristics of linseed oil?
  • Ash and total fat contents were determined according to AOAC Official Methods . Physicochemical characteristics of linseed oil. The ordinary oil constants, e.g., acid value, iodine, saponification, and peroxide number, and refractive index, were estimated according to the AOAC Official Methods .
  • Which fatty acids are found in linseed oil?
  • The fatty acids composition was analyzed with GC-MS method according to AOAC standards. Linseed oil was found to contain high levels of linolenic (53.21%) followed by oleic (18.51%), and linoleic (17.25%), while the dominant saturated acids were palmitic (6.58 %) and stearic (4.43%). 1. Introduction
  • What is the difference between Linum & oilseed?
  • Varieties of Linum bred for fibre use are called flax, whereas the oilseed varieties are called linseed, oilseed flax or just flax. Linseed contains 26-45% oil . Approximately 22% of the oil is located in the seed coat and 4% in the embryo. The oil is present mainly as triacylglycerols in oil bodies having an average diameter.
  • What percentage of linseed oil is destined for technical applications?
  • Approximately 70% of all the linseed oil produced worldwide is destined for technical applications and 30% is for food production . The Codex Alimentarius does not set specific requirements for linseed oil, but it must the general quality requirements for food oils, especially regarding hygiene and safety.
  • How is linseed extracted?
  • Linseeds from the Western Plain of Romania and were purchased from a local market. To obtain oil samples by solvent extraction, chopped linseed were extracted with petroleum ether (Merck, 40-60°C) in a Soxhlet apparatus and the remaining solvent was removed by distillation.
  • How much oil is in linseed?
