Abstract
Understanding the extraction process of Nigella oil is crucial due to its significant impact on yield, quality, and therapeutic effectiveness. This study explored the effects of various screw press temperatures (40 °C, 50 °C, 60 °C, 70 °C, and 80 °C) on the quantity and quality of Nigella oil to optimize conditions that maximize yield while maintaining its nutritional and therapeutic attributes. Our findings indicate a linear increase in oil yield as screw press temperatures rose from 40 °C to 80 °C. There were no significant differences observed in total phenolic content (TPC), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), or the composition and ratio of fatty acids across oils extracted at different temperatures. However, the ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) was highest in oils extracted at 60 °C, while the thymoquinone (TQ) content peaked between 40 °C and 60 °C. These results underscore the importance of optimizing screw press temperatures to strike a balance between maximizing oil yield and preserving its valuable therapeutic and nutritional properties
由于黑木耳油对产量、质量和疗效有重大影响，因此了解黑木耳油的萃取过程至关重要。本研究探讨了不同螺旋榨油机温度（40 °C、50 °C、60 °C、70 °C和80 °C）对黑升麻油数量和质量的影响，以优化条件，在保持营养和治疗特性的同时最大限度地提高产量。我们的研究结果表明，随着螺旋榨油机温度从 40 °C 升至 80 °C，出油率呈线性增长。在不同温度下提取的油中，总酚含量（TPC）、铜还原抗氧化能力（CUPRAC）以及脂肪酸的组成和比例均无明显差异。然而，在 60 °C 下萃取的油中铁还原抗氧化能力（FRAP）最高，而胸腺醌（TQ）含量在 40 °C 和 60 °C 之间达到峰值。这些结果强调了优化螺旋榨油机温度的重要性，以便在最大限度地提高油产量和保留其宝贵的治疗和营养特性之间取得平衡。
