Utilizing Carica papaya seeds as a promising source for bio-oil

  • How to extract papaya seed oil?
  • Soxhlet, solvent, aqueous, enzymatic, ultrasound-assisted and supercritical carbon dioxide extractions are among the methods adopted in obtaining the papaya seed oil. The fatty acid compositions of the papaya seed oil yields are within the similar range despite the different extraction methods.
  • Are papaya seeds a new source of edible oil?
  • They contain high levels of lipid and thus can be a new source of edible oil. Numerous technologies have been used for extraction of crude oil from papaya seeds. Papaya seed oil is composed mostly of unsaturated fatty acids with oleic and palmitic acids being the major ones.
  • What is papaya seed oil made of?
  • Papaya seed oil is composed mostly of unsaturated fatty acids with oleic acid being the major one. The oil also contains lipophilic phytochemicals such as tocopherols, phytosterols and carotenoids. Further investigations are necessary to validate the functional properties of papaya seed oil produced from different extraction techniques.
  • How is the oil yield of Carica papaya seeds determined?
  • The oil yield of Carica papaya seeds was determined using Eq. 1, and the mass of the produced bio-oil was calculated using a GF-3000 analytical balance and a round flask. This conventional Soxhlet extraction method facilitated the extraction and quantification of Carica papaya seeds oil.
