Abstract:Palmitoleic acid shows a variety of beneficial properties to human health. In this study, enrichment of palmitoleic acid from sea buckthorn pulp oil by crystallization and molecular distillation was investigated. Sea buckthorn pulp oil was first converted to its corresponding mixed fatty acids (SPOMFs) that contained 27.17% palmitoleic acid. Subsequently, the effect of various factors on crystallization (i.e., crystallization temperature, solvent, ratio of SPOMFs to solvent (w/v), crystallization time) and mol… Show more
