Study on the extraction of pumpkin seed oil and oil oxidation stability

Zhu Ying-lia

Abstract

The best extraction technology of pumpkin seed oil was obtained by solvent extraction with pumpkin seeds as raw materials. The influence of every factor such as the temperature,the time and the solid–liquid ratio to extraction rate of pumpkin seed oil were studied. Through the orthogonal test the optimum extraction technology was determined. The optimum extraction conditions:with the ratio of material and solvent of 1:10,at 55 ℃ for 3h,the oil extraction yield could reached 93.4%.
