| Authors: | J. Domokos, J. Bernáth, J. Perédi |
| Abstract:
The paprika seeds arising while paprika is processed contain 25-25% of fatty oils. Besides the seeds usually can be found broken fragments of pods and ribs, out of which carotenoids are dissolved into the oils during pressing increasing its value. Based on physical, chemical, and organoleptic investigations of the oil obtained by pressing, it has been established by us, that the fatty oil of the paprika seeds is evenly acceptable for diethetic, medicinal, and cosmetic purposes. | |
