  • How is flaxseed oil extracted?
  • This work compares the yield and quality of the flaxseed oil obtained by individually optimized supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SCE), three-phase partitioning (TPP), solvent extraction and the reported values of cold press extraction.
  • Which extraction method gives the highest yield of oil from flaxseed?
  • Solvent extraction gave the highest oil yield. Oil extracted by SCE showed the best quality in terms of unsaturation and antioxidant activity. Enzymatic pre-treated TPP is a promising approach for extraction of oil from flaxseed as it simultaneously separates protein and oil.
  • Does flaxseed oil have low oxidative stability?
  • Low oxidative stability of flaxseed oil necessitates the use of extraction technologies that are advanced and economically viable than the currently used cold press extraction.
  • What percentage of flaxseed protein is extracted from TPP?
  • In addition to extraction of oil, proteins were also simultaneously extracted in the middle layer of TPP (Fig. S4 in the supplementary file). From RSM-optimized TPP, 17.94% (w / w) of flaxseed protein were extracted from a total flaxseed protein of 20.71% (w / w), which amounted to 86.62% recovery of the same.
