AN325: Extraction of Oils from Oilseeds by Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE)

Description
Accelerated solvent extraction is an extraction method that significantly streamlines sample preparation. The production of oil from oilseeds is an important business, and agronomists are continuing to investigate ways to improve the oil output of the seeds as well as ways to control the composition of the oil itself. The procedures described in this application note apply to the determination of oil content in oilseeds. The oil content is determined by collecting the extracts in preweighed vials, evaporating the solvent with a nitrogen stream and reweighing the vials.Market: | Food and Beverage |
