Progress in understanding and improving oil content and quality in seeds
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The world’s population is projected to increase by two billion by 2050, resulting in food and energy insecurity. Oilseed crops have been identified as key to address these challenges: they produce and store lipids in the seeds as triacylglycerols that can serve as a source of food/feed, renewable fuels, and other industrially ...

Determination of the Oil Content of Seeds
NIPPON KAGAKU KAISHI, 1942 Dr. H. P. Kaufmannからの依頼により,油脂研究國際委員會1)にて決定せる定量方法に基き,獨逸より配布せられたる試料(亞麻仁,落花生,コプラ)に就て種子中の油脂の定量を行ひしに,委員會にて決定せる3方法に對し夫々次の如き批判を下し得た.1) フランス法に對して(1) 試料取扱ひに關し,更に詳細に操作法を説明して誤差を防ぐ様にすべき事,及び試料の採取量過多なる事,等が缺點である.(2) 3種の溶媒は何れかに一定されたい.石油エーテルが最適當であると思はれる.2) イタリー法に對して(1) フランス法と同様供試量の過多なる事,種子の處理方法不完全なる事,等が缺點である.(2) 抽出前種子の豫めの乾燥を行はぬ事となつて居るがアセトンによる抽出に際し不便を生じた.3 ...
