547.916Mahaleb, Prunus mahaleb L. or Cerasus mahaleb Mill., belongs to the Rosaceae family, subfamily Prunoidae [1]. The medicinal use of seeds as a digestive aid and a diuretic has long been practiced in Turkey. Its grounded seeds are used in Turkey as a tonic or an antidiabetic in folk medicine and as a flavouring agent in making pies and candies. From the seeds, oil can be extracted that contains unusual conjugated fatty acids [2].Although there is a study related to the fatty acid content of the seed of a single mahaleb type [3], a comparative study using different types of seeds obtained from yellow, red, and black colored mahaleb fruit seeds has not been carried out so far.Here we report on the fatty acid compositions of seeds from yellow, red, and black colored fruits of mahaleb (Prunus mahaleb L.). The fatty acid composition of oils was analyzed by GC with a capillary column (5% phenylmethylsilicone) [4].Fatty acid components representing about 98.43% (black colored) -98.74% (red colored) types were characterized. The amount of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in seed was found to be 8.72% (yellow colored) -12.10% (black colored); 86.33% (black colored) and 88.83% (yellow colored), respectively. Unsaturated fatty acids from Prunus mahaleb seeds are the predominant constituents. Average of 88% of the fatty acids (Table 1) are unsaturated as previously described for Prunus mahaleb [3].Fatty acid analysis has shown that the seeds from yellow, red, and black colored fruits of the mahaleb studied contained twelve major compounds, and a variation in fatty acids was found among mahaleb types (Table 1). Linoleic acid (33.33-34.13%) was the main fatty acid for seeds from yellow and red colored mahaleb, while oleic acid (33.67%) was the dominant fatty acid for seeds obtained from black colored fruits (Table 1). In a previous study conducted on mahaleb seed, the main fatty acids were found to be oleic and linoleic acid [3], in agreement with our present study. A high content of linoleic and linolenic acid (polyunsaturated fatty acids) is favorable for medicinal (profilaxis and treatment of arteriosclerosis, eczema) and nutritional application since these components, particularly linolenic acid, are responsible for cardioprotective, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial activities [5][6][7][8].Palmitic (16:0), stearic (18:0), and palmitoleic (16:1 ω7c) acids detected in all samples were between (7.38-8.66%), (1.34-3.17%), and (0.45-0.51%), respectively. Ozgul-Yucel [3] reported that mahaleb seeds had 4.60% palmitic, 1.80% stearic, and 0.30% palmitoleic acid, which was close to our results.Arachidic acid (20:0) was detected only in seeds of red and black colored fruits of Prunus mahaleb as between 0.25-0.31%. On the other hand, the eicosadienoic acid (20:2 ω6c) was detected only in the yellow type as 1.80%. Moreover, behenic (22:0) and lignoceric acids (24:0) were found in trace amounts in seeds of all mahaleb types (Table 1).On the other hand, mahaleb seeds of all three types were found to be rich in terms of conjugat...

Almond oil: A comprehensive review of chemical composition, extraction methods, preservation conditions, potential health benefits, and safety

Almond oil, a rich source of macronutrients and micronutrients, is extracted for food flavorings and the cosmetics industry. In recent years, the need for high‐quality and high‐quantity production of almond oil for human consumption has been increased. The present review examines the chemical composition of almond oil, storage conditions, and clinical evidence supporting the health benefits of almond oil. From the reviewed studies, it appears that almond oil contains a significant proportion of poly and monounsaturated fatty acids, with oleic acid as the main compound, and an important amount of tocopherol and phytosterol content. Some variations in almond oil composition can be found depending on the kernel's origin and the extraction system used. Some new technologies such as ultrasonic‐assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, subcritical fluid extraction, and salt‐assisted aqueous extraction have emerged as the most promising extraction techniques that allow eco‐friendly and effective recovery of almond oil. This safe oil was reported by several clinical studies to have potential roles in cardiovascular risk management, glucose homeostasis, oxidative stress reduction, neuroprotection, and many dermatologic and cosmetic applications. However, the anticarcinogenic and fertility benefits of almond oil have yet to be experimentally verified.

665.325The lipophylic extracts of three Viscum album subspecies growing on different host plants in Turkey were comparatively analyzed for derived methyl esters of their fatty acids by capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The sample of V. album ssp. album growing on apricot trees was remarkably rich in palmitic acid (11.47%). Arachidic acid was found in only ssp. austriacum and ssp. abietis samples. The unsaturated fatty acids, mainly oleic and linoleic acids, were identified in nine lipophylic extracts obtained from V. album samples belonging to ssp. album. The amounts of linoleic and oleic acid were the highest in the sample of ssp. album growing on apricot trees (12.18 and 9.19%, respectively).Viscum album L. (European mistletoe) (Loranthaceae), which is an evergreen, semiparasitic plant found on the branches of deciduous trees, is represented by three subspecies; namely ssp. album, ssp. abietis (Wiesb.) Abromeit, and ssp. austriacum (Wiesb.) Vollmann [1].Since ancient times, European mistletoe has been used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, convulsions, arthrosis, cancer, hypertension, and arteriosclerosis [2,3].Phytochemical studies on V. album have revealed the presence of some pharmacologically active substances including alkaloids, polysaccharides, phenylpropanes, lignans, lectins, viscotoxins, and flavonoids [4,5].Linoleic and α-linolenic acids, obtained from plant material, in the diet are the precursors in tissues of two families with opposing effects which are referred to as "essential fatty acids" (EFA): arachidonic acid (AA) and pentane (eicosopentaenoic acid: EPA) and hexaene (docosahexaenoic acid: DHA) acids. The role of EFA is crucial; without a source of AA or compounds which can be converted into AA, synthesis of prostaglandins (PGs) by a cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme would be compromised, and this would seriously affect many normal metabolic processes [6].The purpose of this research was to determine the fatty acid composition of lipophylic (leaves, stems, and twigs) extracts from eleven V. album samples belonging to three V. album subspecies growing in Turkey: ssp. album, ssp. abietis, and ssp. austriacum. This is the first report on the fatty acid content of lipophylic extracts prepared from leaves, stems, and twigs of V. album subspecies growing on different host plants in Turkey. Therefore, any comparison with previously published data was not possible.In this study, lipophylic extracts were obtained from leaves, stems, and twigs of V. album samples. These parts of plants are known to be poor in fatty acids. On the other hand, a considerable content of sterols and aliphatic alcohols was noted in all samples. But many of these compounds could not be identified by GC-MS apparatus. Therefore, the sum (10.10-36.15%) of fatty acids of extracts is not close to 100%.Among the eleven V. album samples, the highest oil yield was obtained from ssp. album leaves, twigs, and stems growing on pear tree (11.95%), and ssp. austriacum leaves, twigs, and stems growing on pine tree gave...
