Almond oil marketed for health benefits and cosmetic purposes should be in compliance with the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) criteria. Therefore, in this study, 17 almond oil samples sold in pharmacies, herbal shops, online, and cosmetics stores were analyzed in terms of "almond oil" monograph criteria, which have been mentioned in EP 7.0.
In this study, 17 almond oil samples sold in pharmacies, herbal, online, and cosmetics stores were analyzed in terms of "almond oil" monograph criteria, which have been mentioned in EP 7.0. Appearance, acidity value, and peroxide value of each sample were determined and the ingredients were identified by thin layer chromatography. Fatty acids were analyzed by gas chromatographic method using flame ionization detector.
It was determined that two of the 17 samples complied with EP 7.0 criteria.
Almond oil, which is currently marketed according to the manufacturer's own marketing and quality criteria, is excluded from the Turkish Food Codex Standards. Our research has shown that most of the products do not comply with the EP standards. For this reason, it should be ensured that almond oil is listed in this codex and urgent arrangements should be made for quality control analysis.
用于健康益处和美容目的而销售的杏仁油应符合欧洲药典(EP)标准。因此,在本研究中,对在药店、草药商店、网上和化妆品店销售的17个杏仁油样品按照EP 7.0中提及的“杏仁油”专论标准进行了分析。
在本研究中,对在药店、草药店、网上和化妆品店销售的17个杏仁油样品按照EP 7.0中提及的“杏仁油”专论标准进行了分析。测定了每个样品的外观、酸值和过氧化值,并通过薄层色谱法鉴定了成分。使用火焰离子化检测器通过气相色谱法分析脂肪酸。
确定17个样品中有2个符合EP 7.0标准。
目前按照制造商自己的营销和质量标准销售的杏仁油未被列入土耳其食品法典标准。我们的研究表明,大多数产品不符合EP标准。因此,应确保杏仁油列入该法典,并应紧急安排进行质量控制分析。
