Component triacylglycerols of six seed oils of malvaceae

Seham Fiad

Abstract

The component triacylglycerols of six seed oils of the Malvaceae family—Gossypium barbadense (Egyptian cotton),Hibiscus cannabinus (kenaf),Hibiscus sabdarifa (roselle), two varieties ofHibiscus esculentas (okra) andAlthea rosea (ketmia, hollyhock or Egyptian hemp)—have been determined by using the lipase hydrolysis technique. The oils were found to contain triacylglycerols belonging to trisaturated (1.0–2.1), disaturated‐monounsaturated (12.3–20.9), monosaturated‐diunsaturated (42.3–46.6) and triunsaturated (30.1–44.2) types of triacylglycerols.
