Abstract

The oil fraction of most oilseeds is composed mainly of triacylglycerols (95-99%) acting as a dispersing medium for a wide range of lipophilic and amphiphilic secondary metabolites, collectively forming what is known as the unsaponifiable fraction. Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) oil consists of triacylglycerols (95%), diacylglycerols (2.6%), free fatty acids (0.1%), and other lipids, including phospholipids and unsaponifiables (2.3%).
