Plant-based edible oils rank second only to carbohydrates as an important source of calories in the human diet and are primarily derived from edible oilseeds. These oilseeds are rich in essential fatty acids, high-quality protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They also contain important phytochemicals including sterols, polyphenols, tocopherols, and carotenoids, making the oils they produce critical for metabolic functions, human health benefits, and addressing malnutrition and undernutrition. The global cultivation of edible oilseed crops has seen a significant rise. However, various biotic and abiotic stresses, poor agronomic practices, and extreme climate conditions, either in isolation or combination, negatively affect plant health, thus limiting both the quantity and quality of oilseed productivity. Edible Oilseeds Research - Updates and Prospects provides a comprehensive exploration of the origins, botanical characteristics, challenges, and recent advancements associated with major herbaceous edible oilseed-bearing plants. It offers historical insights into edible oilseeds, highlights recent advancements and future directions, and provides an overview of the important bioactive dietary compounds (including tocopherols and tocotrienols) present in common oilseeds. This volume also discusses key approaches to improving the health and productivity of oil palm and presents critical insights into the applications and achievements of CRISPR-Cas9 technology in oilseed research. This book serves as a valuable resource for plant biologists engaged in teaching and research, offering detailed knowledge on various aspects of important edible oilseeds.

Oils and fats are almost ubiquitous in food processing, whether naturally occurring in foods or added as ingredients that bring functional benefits. Whilst levels of fat intake must be controlled in order to avoid obesity and other health problems, it remains the fact that fats (along with proteins and carbohydrates) are one of the three macronutrients and therefore an essential part of a healthy diet. The ability to process oils and fats to make them acceptable as part of our food supplies is a key component in our overall knowledge of them. Without this ability, the food that we consume would be totally different, and much of the flexibility available to us as a result of the application of processing techniques would be lost. Obviously we need to know how to process fatty oils, but we also need to know how best to use them once they have been processed. This second edition of Edible Oil Processing presents a valuable overview of the technology and applications behind the subject. It covers the latest technologies which address new environmental and nutritional requirements as well as the current state of world edible oil markets. This book is intended for food scientists and technologists who use oils and fats in food formulations, as well as chemists and technologists working in edible oils and fats processing.

This book intends to review the current status of the systematic knowledge related to the chemical composition, production and applications of edible oils. It is written principally based on the data that have been published in scientific journals, academically specialized books or internet websites and authors secondary innovation. The knowledge introduced in the book should be very useful for farmers or oilseeds processing enterprises, or scientists who are interested in developing their sustainable resources and their processing technology. They are also worthwhile as reference materials for training students intending to work with oilseeds production or processing industry. The central scope of this book is associated with the review of recent research results or developments and future tendency with respect to the chemical components, production and applications of edible oils. More than 40 species of oil seeds or raw materials have high oil content. Oils from these raw materials are edible. In addition to providing essential fatty acids and energy, all edible oils also contain fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin E and carotenoids (pro-vitamin A) and other functional compounds such as sterols, phospholipids, squalene, etc. which are reviewed in this book. Some particular species of edible oils also contain unique functional compounds, which are not present in other kinds of edible oils. The worlds production of edible oils, their processing technology and their application in the food industry or other industries are also reviewed in this book. Especially, with respect to the extraction of edible oils, an advanced aqueous method recently published has achieved a high recovery rate of oils with high quality, which has a different mechanism as compared with the traditional aqueous method using large quantities of water. The de-oiled residue produced by this aqueous method can be applied to the food industry. This kind of aqueous method has the potential of knocking other methods out and becoming a classic procedure for the commercial production of edible oils in the future. The first chapter of this book is about the overview of edible oils while the following chapters review major specific edible oils that are popularly produced and consumed in the world.
