Does solvent extraction affect oil yield of safflower seeds?

Solvent extraction has great advantage as high yield£¨£¾ Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different extraction solvents (petroleum benzene, hexane, diethyl ether and acetone) and extraction methods (hot and cold) on oil yield of safflower seeds and its fatty acid compositions.

How to extract oil from SAF flower seed?

Petroleum benzene, hexane, diethyl ether and acetone were used for extraction the total oil from saf- flower seed under hot£¨Soxhlet extraction for 5 hand cold£© £¨rinsing bath at room temperature for 12 hconditions.

Does polarity affect the extraction of oil from safflower seeds?

These findings suggested that the polarity of the solvents affect the extraction of oils from safflower seeds under hot ex- traction conditions, in which, marginally non-polar solvents £¨petroleum benzene and diethyl etherwere more efficient £© that polar solvent£¨acetone£©.

What is the oil content of safflower seeds?

Oil contents of safflower seeds extracted by hot extraction system were changed between 37.40% (acetone) and 39.53% (petroleum benzene), while that of cold extraction was varied between 39.96% (petroleum benzene) and 39.40% (diethyl ether).
