Abstract: Oils of nine oil crops were evaluated concerning their composition from the fatty acids. The obtained results revealed that palm oil had the highest palmitic acid (45.10 %) and canola oil had the lowest palmitic acid (3.90 %). The highest stearic acid was found in palm oil (4.70 %) and the lowest stearic acid was found in canola oil (1.90 %). Olive oil had the highest oleic acid (71.10 %) and the lowest was found in cotton seed oil (17.60%). Linoleic acid percentage ranged from 68.0 % in sunflower to 9.40 % in palm oil. Linolenic acid ranged from 52.0 % in flax oil to 0.00 % in peanut oil. The lowest saturated fatty acids were 6.80 % in canola while the highest percentage was found in palm oil (51.50 %). As for the total unsaturated fatty acids values were 93.20 %, 90.0 %, 87.30 %, 84.50 %, 82.90 %, 82.0 %, 74.70 %, 72.0 % and 48.60 % in the oils of canola, flax, sunflower, soybean, olive, maize, peanut, cotton and palm, respectively |
