  • How do you extract coconut oil?
  • The extraction of coconut oil The cold-pressed method for coconut oil extraction involves manually dehusking each coconut, discarding the coconut water, scraping off the peel with a stainless-steel scraper, and cutting the coconut meat into 1 cm 3 cubes.
  • What is the saponification value of coconut oil & sesame oil?
  • Saponification value of coconut oil and sesame oil was243.15 ± 2.62 and 184.4 ± 2.97 mg KOH per g of fat, respectively. Three molecules of KOH are needed to saponify each molecule of TAG irrespective of the chain length of a fatty acid. Therefore, lipid with high amount of short chain fatty acid will require more KOH.
  • What are the different types of coconut oil?
  • According to different processing methods, the Asia-Pacific Coconut Community (APCC) classifies coconut oil into crude coconut oil (CCO), refined coconut oil (RCO) and virgin coconut oil (VCO) (Divya et al., 2022). CCO is oil obtained from coconut meat by pressing or solvent extraction.
  • What are AV values for coconut oil derived from enzymatic hydrolysis?
  • Zhao, Zhang, Dong, et al. (2024) reported that AV values for coconut oil obtained through enzymatic hydrolysis and Soxhlet extraction of 0.39 mg/g and 0.18 mg/g, respectively. These values are significantly lower than those derived from hot-pressed and cold-pressed methods.
  • Why do coconut oils have no flavor analysis?
  • Firstly, a detailed flavor analysis of the extracted coconut oils was not conducted, limiting a comprehensive understanding of their sensory profiles. Moreover, the extraction process involving water may have resulted in the partial loss of phenolic compounds, potentially affecting the health benefits and flavor nuances of the final product.
  • Which coconut oil has the highest AV & MCPD levels?
  • This revealed that the coconut oil of W4-C yielded the highest score of 1.139, indicating that the oil not only exhibited a low level of AV and MCPD, PAHs but also possessed a high lauric acid content and antioxidant capacity. These attributes collectively conferred the optimal overall quality.
