  • Are sunflower seeds high in campesterol and 7-stigmastenol?
  • New phytosterol (PS)-enriched sunflower seeds, which are higher in campesterol and ?7-stigmastenol, have recently been developed. Crude oils obtained from these new sunflower seeds in 2015 and 2017 were used in this study. Oils extracted only by press (PO) and with subsequent solvent extraction (SO) were characterized.
  • How is sunflower oil produced?
  • At the industrial level, sunflower oil production consists of extraction by press (around 70¨C80% of the total oil is extracted) followed by solvent extraction (hexane) of the remaining oil. Both the press oil (PO) and solvent oil (SO) are blended to produce what is known as crude oil, which must then be refined for edible purposes [ 13 ].
  • What are the advantages of Physical refining of sunflower oil?
  • Physical refining has several advantages compared to the classical chemical one. This process is more economical (improved yield, lower investment cost, less chemicals used) environmental friendly process (no soapstock to be treated, splitted) but more sensitive to the crude oil quality. Physical refining of sunflower oil is discussed in details.
  • Are sunflower oils obtained separately by pressing and solvent extraction?
