Oils of nine oil crops were evaluated concerning their composition of the fatty acids. The obtained results revealed that palm oil had the highest content of palmitic acid (45.10%) and canola oil had the lowest (3.90%). The highest stearic acid content was found in palm oil (4.70%) and the lowest was found in canola oil (1.90%). Olive oil had the highest content of oleic acid (71.10%) and the lowest content 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 percentage ranged from 52.0% in flax oil to 0.00 % in peanut oil. The lowest saturated fatty acids percentage was 6.80% in canola while the highest percentage was found in palm oil (51.50 %). As for the total unsaturated fatty acids values, they were found to be 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. |
