What are the components of Moringa oleifera?

Seeds ( A ), kernels ( B ), fruits ( C) and oil ( D) of Moringa oleifera. Oil is the main component of the seed and represents 36.7% of the seed weight. The oil can be extracted almost entirely by solvent extraction, generally n-hexane, whereas less yield is obtained by cold press extraction.

How to extract Moringa oleifera seeds?

In addition, the pods and husks can be put through a pyrolysis process to make activated carbon ( Pollard et al., 1995 ). Aqueous extraction, salt extraction, and solvent extraction are the most common methods used to obtain Moringa oleifera seeds extract (MOSE) for different applications.

What is the optimal extraction rate for Moringa oleifera seed oil?

Duan et al. (2010) used ultrasonic-assisted solvent extraction to obtain Moringa oleifera seed oil (MOSO), and the optimal extraction rate was 36.3%, which was slightly lower than that observed by Chen et al. (2022) (38.61%) using CO 2 supercritical techniques as extraction procedure.

What are Moringa derivatives?

Moringa derivatives (leaf extract, seed oil, seed extract) have high antioxidant activity. Extraction, phytochemical composition and applications of Moringa derivatives are reviewed with economic importance to various industries. The application of natural products has continued to receive considerable attention due to their various benefits.
