dc.description.abstractThe oil content as well as the fatty acid and tocopherol composition of kernels from 15 Prunus spp. varieties from Turkey were determined. The oil yields from these kernels varied from 46.3 to 55.5%. The main fatty acids of Prunus spp. kernel oils were oleic acid (43.9-78.5%), linoleic acid (9.7-37%) and palmitic acid (4.9-7.3%). The total amount of vitamin-E-active compounds in the oils varied between 62.9 and 439.9 mg/kg. The predominant tocopherol in most kernel oils was gamma-tocopherol. Only two varieties of P. amygdalus and one variety of P. persica showed alpha-tocopherol as the main vitamin-E-active compound. The composition of the oils was 9-164.5 mg/kg alpha-tocopherol, 21.5-41.6 mg/kg alpha-tocotrienol, 1.6-330.2 mg/kg gamma-tocopherol and 0-39.1 mg/kg delta-tocopherol. From the results of the present study, it can be concluded that the kernels of the investigated species of Prunus fruits from Turkey may serve potential sources of valuable oil that might be used for edible and other industrial applications.en_US
