Chemical composition and DSC thermal properties of two species of Hylocereus cacti seed oil: hylocereus undatus and Hylocereus polyrhizus.

Chemical composition and DSC thermal properties of two species of Hylocereus cacti seed oil: hylocereus undatus and Hylocereus polyrhizus.

Two types of pitaya (Hylocereus cacti) seeds (Hylocereus undatus and Hylocereus polyrhizus) were investigated in this study. The fatty acid, phenolic, tocopherol, and sterol contents of the extracted seed oil were analysed. The results showed that the pitaya seeds contained a high amount of oil (18....
