Modeling for extraction of oil from walnut and sesame using batch flow cold press oil extraction system.

In this study, a batch flow oil extraction system was used for extraction of oil from walnut ( L.) and Sesamum (). Sample mass (g), applied pressure (MPa), and processing temperature of oil (°C) were selected as independent variables and oil extraction mass percentage and oil analysis as dependent variables.

An analysis of variations in morphological characteristics, essential oil content, and genetic sequencing among and within major Iranian Juniper (Juniperus spp.) populations.

Junipers (Juniperus spp.) are important pharmaceutical plants, and they are commonly grown in the northern hemisphere because of the various medicinal properties attributed to the Juniperus genus. However, despite their pharmaceutical and also industrial importance, and despite plant diversity being a common topic of research among professional breeding programs, there is a relatively small body of work which focuses on diversity in juniper, and this is especially true of juniper species that are native to Iran.
