Cold pressed Ficus carica seed oil is rich in linolenic and linoleic acids, as well as high amounts of beta-carotene, tocol, and sterol. It has superior properties in terms of nutritional value and beneficial phytochemicals, making it a potential alternative to vegetable oils with potential medical applications.
Free fatty acid (FFA), peroxide value (PV), conjugated diene and triene, chlorophyll, beta-carotene, fatty acid composition, triglyceride, tocol (tocopherol and tocotrienol) compositions, sterol, wax and total polymeric compound amounts of cold pressed Ficus carica seed oil were evaluated by using chromatographic and spectrometric methods in this study. While the % free fatty acid of cold pressed ficus carica seed oil was 0.76 +/- 0.06, the peroxide value was found as 1.06 +/- 0.09 meqO(2)/kg. It had also low content of conjugated diene and triene amounts, chlorophyll, wax and total polymeric compounds. The obtained results demonstrated that cold pressed ficus carica seed oil had rich in linolenic and linoleic, which are polyunsaturated fatty acids, and contained high amounts of LLnLn, LnLnLn, OLLn, LLL and PLLn triglycerides. Cold pressed ficus carica had high content of beta-carotene (4114.9 ppm), total tocol (1006 ppm) and sterol (7250.83 ppm). The obtained results showed that ficus carica seed oil is a product with superior properties due to the high nutritional value and beneficial phytochemicals. Therefore this oil can be an alternative to vegetable oils and used as a medical product.
