Description
Triacylglycerol/oils are energy reserves, which are important in human/animal nutrition.
The majority of oils consumed by humans are derived from plant seeds and vegetable
oil consumption is expected to double by 2040.. Soybeans oil is high in linoleic and
saturated fatty acids (FA) (mostly linoleic and palmitic acid; about 55% and 15%).
Although soybean and other plant oils (such as flaxseed and canola) contain significant
amounts of the linolenic acid, they lack other beneficial FAs like arachidonic (AA),
eicosapentaenoic (EPA), and docosahexanoic (DHA), which are of keen interest in human
and animal health. The proposed work will utilize the US soybean export council
provided data set, as well as information from a variety of other sources (AOCS materials,
peer reviewed articles, trade publications, etc.) to review and access the parameters used
to assay oil quality.
