“…10 In addition, PSO contains carotenoids, in high concentration, and sterols as stigmastatrienol, stigmastadienol, and spinasterol. 10,11 Reports have shown the therapeutic effects of PSO, primarily highlighting the antidiabetic, antibacterial, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the edible oil with the highest contribution to the anti-oxidant capability being related to the polar fraction of the oil, mainly tocopherols. [12][13][14][15] The mechanism underlying the anti-oxidant activity involves the blockage of 5-alpha reductase enzyme action.…”

Background: Peptic ulcer disease, a painful lesion of the gastric mucosa, is considered one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. This study aims to investigate the formulation of pumpkin seed oil (PSO)-based nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) to utilize PSO as the liquid lipid component of NLCs and to achieve oil dispersion in the nano-range in the stomach. Methods: Box-Behnken design was utilized to deduce the optimum formula with minimum particle size. The optimized PSO-NLCs formula was investigated for gastric ulcer protective effects in Wistar rats by evaluating ulcer index and determination of gastric mucosa oxidative stress parameters. Results: PSO was successfully incorporated as the liquid lipid (LL) component of NLCs.The prepared optimum PSO-NLCs formula showed a size of 64.3 nm. Pretreatment of animals using the optimized PSO-NLCs formula showed significantly (p< 0.001) lower ulcer index compared to indomethacin alone group and significantly (p<0.05) less mucosal lesions compared to the raw oil. Conclusion: These results indicated great potential for future application of optimized PSO-NLCs formula for antiulcer effect in non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastric ulcer.

“…Oleic acid and linoleic acid were found to be major fatty acids with a ratio of 36.73% and 39.45 %, respectively. Bernardo-Gil et al 2001; Siano et al (2016) reported similar results. Doğantürk and Seçilmiş Canbay (2019) reported that oleic acid was in the range of 42.625 to 55.265 g/100 g and linoleic acid with 23.276 g/100 g. The oleic acid value was higher than our study.…”

“…Some edible oils such as cold-pressed and virgin oils can be directly consumed. In addition to seed oils such as soy, sunflower, cotton and canola, palm and olive oil are among the most commonly used fruit oils (Siano et al, 2016). The need for alternative vegetable oil sources is increasing day by day.…”

This study aimed to determine physicochemical properties (PV, FFA, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity), fatty acid, sterol, tocopherol and phenolic compound profile of sweet cherry seed oil. Sweet cherry oil was obtained by cold press process. Tocopherol and phenolic compounds were determined by HPLC and fatty acid and sterol composition were analyzed by GC system. PV and FFA values were found as 1.40 meqO2/kg and 2.71 % respectively. Apparent viscosity value was 0.057 Pa.s. TPC and AC values of the sweet cherry oil were determined as 22.17 mg GAE/g of extract and 1.05 mmol TE/g of extract. UFA content was higher than that of the SFA. SFA and UFA levels were 10.53% and 89.47 % respectively. MUFA (37.44 %) level was lower than PUFA level (52.03 %). Oleic acid and linoleic acid were found to be major fatty acids with a ratio of 36.73 % and 39.45 %, respectively. 8 different sterols were analyzed for sweet cherry seed oil. -sitosterol was found to be the major sterol with a ratio of 88.93 % followed by campesterol (3.12 %), 7-stigmasterol (2.48 %), 5-avenasterol (2.12 %) and sitostanol (1.42 %). Other sterols showed small amount (<1%). Total four tocopherols namely, , ,  and δ tocopherols were identified for sweet cherry oils. -tocopherols (96.72 mg /kg) were found as major tocopherol followed by -tocopherols (57.40 mg/kg) and δ tocopherols. -tocopherol showed a small amount. This study suggested that sweet cherry seed oil can be utilized in food industry due to high level of bioactive compounds and low levels of PV and FFA content.

“…In addition, the chemical composition of PSO in terms of fatty acid composition exhibited that PSO contained 40.58% oleic acid, 27.06% stearic acid, 17.39% palmitic acid and 14.97% linoleic acid. Siano et al (2016) have noted that the polyunsaturated FA (PUFA), monounsaturated FA (MUFA) and saturated FA (SFA) contents in PSO cultivated in southern Italy were of 48.14%, 25.54%, and 25.20%, respectively. The high degree of unsaturated FA makes PSO suitable to be used as valuable drying agent, while low value of free FA contents indicates the suitability of PSO as edible oils.…”

Pumpkin seed oil (PSO) has been known as functional food oil due to some bioactive components contained such as phenolics and tocopherols with beneficial effects to human health including antioxidants, prevention of certain cancers, and retardation of hypertension progression and alleviation of diabetes mellitus. To extract PSO from corresponding fruit seed, numerous extraction techniques either conventional like Soxhlet extraction or modern extraction systems such as ultrasound-assisted extraction and supercritical extraction were optimized and developed to get maximum yields of PSO with maximum bioactive components. PSO contained tocopherols and other phenolics compounds, therefore, it has potential application in the treatment of diseases related to oxidative stress. Due to the different price of PSO with other vegetable oils, the adulteration practice involving the substitution or addition of PSO with lower price oils such as palm oil and corn oils is possible, therefore analytical method capable of detecting the adulteration practice is available. The aim of this review was to highlight the physicochemical properties, extraction procedure, antioxidant activities and authentication analysis of PSO.
