Article Synopsis
- The study compared the physical and chemical properties of cold pressed moringa seed oil (CPMSO) and hexane extracted moringa seed oil (HEMSO), noting differences in characteristics like iodine value and total tocopherols.
- Both oils primarily contained oleic acid, making it their main fatty acid, and demonstrated adequate thermal stability with CPMSO showing significantly better oxidative stability compared to groundnut oil.
- CPMSO also outperformed refined groundnut oil in frying stability, exhibiting lower increases in free fatty acid, peroxide value, and color after frying.
