Abstract
Cold-pressed oils are oils prepared from pressing plant materials with a screw or hydraulic press, yielding oils with little contamination of harmful chemicals and high content of nutrients and functional constituents. Cold-pressed oils have gained increasing recognition as food supplements for preventing and ameliorating body deterioration due to ageing and the progression of lifestyle diseases or non-communicable diseases. This article aimed to review their structure, bioactivity, and chromatographic analysis of the mostly found functional compounds in cold-pressed oils, including phytosterols, carotenoids, tocols (tocopherols and tocotrienols), phenolic compounds (flavonoids, phenolic acids, tannins, stilbenes, and lignans), and squalene.
期刊介绍:
The J. Oleo Sci. publishes original researches of high quality on chemistry, biochemistry and science of fats and oils
such as related food products, detergents, natural products,
petroleum products, lipids and related proteins and sugars.
The Journal also encourages papers on chemistry and/or biochemistry as a major component combined with biological/
sensory/nutritional/toxicological evaluation related to agriculture and/or food.
