Seeds and oil of the Styrian oil pumpkin: Components and biological activities
European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, 2007AbstractCucurbita pepo subsp. pepo var. Styriaca is a phylogenetically young member of the Cucurbita spp. since the mutation leading to dark green seeds with stunted outer hulls arose only in the 19th century. This mutation defined the so‐called Styrian oil pumpkin and facilitated the production of Styrian pumpkin seed oil.

Pumpkin fruit, seed and oil yield is independent of fruit or seed photosynthesis
The Journal of Agricultural Science, 2011SUMMARYSummer pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) is an herbaceous plant with big fruits and oily seeds. Photosynthetic oxygen release was previously proposed to promote storage activity of seeds under internal hypoxia, in particular in oilseeds. Photosynthetic activity or any other function of chlorophylls from pumpkin seeds has never been demonstrated.

Pumpkins seed oil as an antioxidant
2013Metodom elektronske spinske rezonancije uz uporabu galvinoksil radikala otopljenog u izooktanu uspoređivana je antioksidacijska aktivnost bučinog ulja različitih proizvođača. Metoda se pokazala dovoljno osjetljivom za praćenje razlika u aktivnosti ulja obzirom na različiti nalin prerade koštica.
