Biochemical analysis of oil from seeds of Abutilon muticum

2003

The oil seeds of Abutilon muticum (Akri) have been studied for their chemical composition and nutritive value. Moisture and ash content are not very significant but their oil contents is important. The oil seed cakes contain a reasonable amount of protein, starch, free sugar, reducing sugar, crude fiber, inorganic material and vitamin C. physical properties such as saponification value, acid value iodine value and peroxide value for seed oil were determined. It was found that oil was non edible because acid value was high. Qualitatively analysis of amino acid was studied by paper chromatography.
