Abstract:   (4503 Views)
The seeds of ten pomegranate (punica granatum L.) cultivars were analyzed for their physicochemical and oil properties. Also mineral elements such as Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mg, Na and K were determined by ICP atomic emmision spectroscopy. The highest quantities of mineral belonged to Mg, K and Na. Also, the quantities of ash and protein in pomegranate seeds were 1.81-2.35 % and 6.63- 12.95 %, respectively. The average contents of refractometer, unsaponifiable, saponification, iodine, peroxide, acidity, moisture and volatile matter were the ranges 1.50-1.51, 1.16-1.63, 181.3-187.9 mgKOH/g, 165-179.4, 0.3-0.7 meqO2/kg oil, 0.25-0.4 % and 0.10-0.19 %, respectively.
