Cottonseed Oil: Extraction, Characterization, Health

  • What is cottonseed oil?
  • Cottonseed oil is the valuable byproduct extracted after seed cotton processing for lint. It confers a huge contribution to total vegetable oil production and ranked the 2nd to meet global edible oil requirements. Over centuries, breeders mainly focused to improve lint production and fiber quality.
  • Why is cottonseed a valuable co-product of cotton fiber production?
  • Normally, cottonseed products represent approximately 15% of farm value of the cotton crop, making it a valuable co-product of cotton fiber production. Furthermore, the continued demand for cotton fiber by the textile industry ensures the production of a large supply of cottonseed.
  • What is the difference between cotton oil and cottonseed oil?
  • Cotton (Gossypium sp.) is a commercially important annual fiber crop; cottonseed oil (CSO) is an important product extracted from one of the byproducts of cottonseeds. Oil yield varies with cotton species, places, and season when cotton grown and extraction methods used for oil extraction.
  • Why do we need fatty acid modification in cottonseed?
  • Therefore, it has become the global concern to enrich the oil potential of locally available cotton cultivars to meet the ever increasing edible oil demand. Prospects are also increasing towards modification of cottonseed fatty acid profile to ameliorate its nutritional properties.
