The application of filtration extraction to rapeseed is discussed with particular emphasis on the effect of seed preparation on the hydrogenation characteristics of the oil. It was found that cooking the crushed seed without the addition of water, and at temperatures not exceeding 220F, produced a satisfactory oil. Under these conditions extraction efficiency was good and the resulting meal showed no harmful effects in feeding trials with mice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
