Effects of growth conditions on fatty acids and tocopherols in Camelina sativa oil – J. Zubr, B. Matthäus – Industrial Crops and Products 2002

Summary: Oil samples obtained from the seed of Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz were analysed for the content of fatty acids and tocopherols. The analyses reconfirmed the known specific profile of fatty acids in camelina oil. Both the analyses for fatty acids and for tocopherols disclosed considerable qualitative differences between the oil samples. The variation was ascribed to the combined effects ...

Camelina Oil and Its Unusual Cholesterol Content – V.K.S. Shukla, P.C. Dutta, and W.E. Artz – Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society 2002

Summary: The oil in Camelina sativa L. Crantz has a combined linolenic and linoleic acid content that is greater than 50% and a relatively low saturated fatty acid (FA) content (~10%). Although the FA composition has been reported, no information is available on the sterol composition of camelina oil. Perhaps the most unusual characteristic of camelina oil is its relatively ...

Effects of Environmental Factors on Edible Oil Quality of Organically Grown Camelina sativa – B. Kirkhus, A.R. Lundon, J.-E. Haugen, G. Vogt, G.I.A. Borge, and Britt I.F. Henriksen – Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry 2013

Summary: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential for the production of edible oil from organically grown camelina (Camelina sativa L. Crantz), focusing on the influence of environmental factors on nutritional quality parameters. In conclusion, organically grown camelina seems to be well suited for the production of edible oil. Variations in nutritional quality parameters were generally ...

Effect of α-Linolenic Acid–Rich Camelina sativa Oil on Serum Fatty Acid Composition and Serum Lipids in Hypercholesterolemic Subjects – H.M. Karvonen, A. Aro, N. S. Tapola, I. Salminen, M.I.J. Uusitupa, and E.S. Sarkkinen – Metabolism 2002

Summary: We studied the effects of camelina oil on serum lipids and on the fatty acid composition of total lipids in comparison to rapeseed and olive oils. Camelina oil’s serum cholesterol-lowering effect was comparable to that of rapeseed and olive oils. Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12370843

Camelina oil: Chemistry, properties and utilization – L. Fan and N. A. M. Eskin – Recent Research Developments in Lipids 2013

Summary: In 2010, Health Canada approved camelina oil as a novel food in Canada and allowed its sale for human consumption. Camelina meal, however, has not yet been approved as feed in Canada. This chapter will review both the historical development of this crop as well as the composition, stability, and nutritional properties of the oil for human use. In ...

Lipid-lowering evaluation of cold-pressed Camelina sativa oil – Q. Deng, F. Huang, Q. Huang, J. Xu, and C. Liu – Journal of Food, Agriculture and Environment 2012

Summary: The objective of the present study was to investigate the impact of increasing doses of cold-pressed Camelina sativa oil (CO) with high level of α- linolenic acid (56.1%) on plasma and liver lipids as well as on oxidative level of Sprague-Dawley rats fed with high fat diets (HFD) containing 20% fat and 1% cholesterol. Finding: Camelina sativa oil containing ...
