Bitter and sweet lupin (Lupinus albus L.) seeds and seed oils : a comparison study of their compositions and physicochemical properties

In this study, bitter and sweet lupin (Lupinus albus L.) seed oils (BLO and SLO) were extracted using the soxhlet extraction method. The physicochemical properties, fatty acid compositions, thermal properties, 1H NMR, FTIR and UV visible spectra of BLO and SLO were evaluated. In addition, the antiox...

Description
Summary:In this study, bitter and sweet lupin (Lupinus albus L.) seed oils (BLO and SLO) were extracted using the soxhlet extraction method. The physicochemical properties, fatty acid compositions, thermal properties, 1H NMR, FTIR and UV visible spectra of BLO and SLO were evaluated. In addition, the antioxidant properties of bitter and sweet lupin seeds and their oils were also studied. The results showed that the bitter and sweet lupin seeds consist of 8% and 12% of oil, respectively. BLO and SLO contained high concentration of oleic acid (46.28 and 48.72%), followed by linoleic acid (21.55 and 20.90%), linolenic acid (7.69 and 8.95%), and palmitic acid (7.39 and 7.5%). The total tocopherol content of BLO and SLO were 184.70 and 317.01 mg/100 g oil, respectively. TG/DTG curves showed that the process thermal decomposition of the oils occurs in four phases for SLO and three phases for BLO.
