What is cold press extraction?

Cold press extraction is one of the methods of mechanical extraction as well as required less energy than other oil extraction techniques and also environmental friendly. It is used to extract oil from a range of matrices and is produced especially in the oil production from oilseeds.

Does cold pressed soybean oil scavenge radicals?

On the contrary, cold pressed soybean oil was characterized by remarkably lower 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH·) radical scavenging activity (17.4%) than cold pressed oils of hemp (76.2%), pumpkin seed (65.3%), rapeseed (51.2%), sunflower (23.8%), rice bran (23.7%), and flaxseed (19.3%) ( Siger et al., 2008 ).

Are cold pressed soybean oils toxic?

Compared to other cold pressed oils, the characterization and toxicological studies dealing with soybean oils are very limited. Therefore, further investigations should be carried out to find out the other contaminants and compounds, which may exhibit health-related problems in cold pressed soybean oils.

Are cold pressed soybean oils solvent-extracted?

Commercial soybean oils are commonly solvent-extracted and refined due to their high phosphatides contents. Hence, few studies exist on characterization of cold pressed soybean oils in the literature.
