Total Lipids and Storage Quality of Oil Seeds and Nuts as Influenced by Yeast Fermentation
Abstract: Oilseeds and the products made from them have a role in a healthy balanced diet, even though they are energy dense and contain a high proportion of fat. Most oilseeds are made up of protein and oil. In general, fat is 18–45% by weight of oilseeds and protein is about 16–40%. Fluctuations in oil yields can cause significant fluctuations in their rates. The oils contain fat-soluble vitamins and unsaturated fats …
