FAQ

  • What is cold pressed pumpkin seed oil?
  • According to the Codex Alimentarius, cold pressed pumpkin seed oil is directly obtained from raw and dried seeds using a continuous screw press ( Codex Alimentarius, 1999 ). The outlet temperature of the oil should be kept below 50°C for the oil to be labeled as cold pressed pumpkin seed oil ( Vujasinovic et al., 2010 ).
  • Where does pumpkin oil come from?
  • It has been produced in Slovenia, Austria, and Hungary and used as cooking oil in many parts in Africa and the Middle East. The oil content is around 50% and it can be obtained from pumpkin seeds with or without husks using solvent extraction, supercritical CO 2 or cold pressed methods.
  • Does cold pressed pumpkin seed oil contain fatty acids?
  • In summary, cold pressed pumpkin seed oils have lower acid and peroxide values than the maximum limits (4 mg KOH/g oil and 15 meq O 2 /kg oil, respectively) set by the Codex Alimentarius ( Codex Alimentarius, 1999 ). The formation of free fatty acids may be associated with the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols prior to pressing.
  • Does cold pressed pumpkin seed oil have antioxidant activity?
  • Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil antioxidant activity as determined by a DC polarographic assay based on hydrogen peroxide scavenge. Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society, 88 (12), 1875–1882. Gunstone, F. D. (1967). In F. D. Gunstone (Ed.), An introduction to the chemistry and biochemistry of fatty acids and their glycerides (2nd ed.).
  • Does cold pressed pumpkin seed oil contain lignans?
  • In Latvia, the presence of sesamolin (7.17 mg/100 g in 2011 and 2.49 mg/100 g in 2012) and sesamin (20.54 mg/100 g in 2011 and 7.22 mg/100 g in 2012) lignans in cold pressed pumpkin seed oil were revealed ( Górnaś, Siger, Pugajeva, & Segliņa, 2014 ). These results indicated the improper and inadequate cleaning procedures carried out in plants.
  • What is pumpkin seed oil?
  • It is dichromatic, viscous oil that has been documented for its strong antioxidant activity (Stevenson et al. 2007). Moreover, pumpkin seed oil (PSO) has the most remarkable health benefits (Nishimura et al. 2014), and thus it requires effective extraction techniques in order to guarantee a high-quality PSO.
