Abstract:

Da-Hong-Pao pepper seeds were used as the raw materials to extract crust oil and kernel oil by two-step extraction technology using the same kind of solvent. The extraction processing was optimized on the basis of extraction rate. Results indicated that the extraction rates of crust oil and kernel oil with solvent oil under the optimal conditions were 96.00 % and 97.51%, respectively. The crust oil was mainly composed of saturated and unsaturated fatty acid ester such as palmitic acid, palmitolei acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid. The kernel oil mainly contained unsaturated fatty acid ester such as oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid, which can be expected as a kind of high nourishing and health edible oil.

Key words: pepper seed, two-step extraction technology, crust oil, kernel oil, solvent oil
