  • What is cottonseed oil (CSO)?
  • The worldwide cottonseed production in 2019¨C2020 was 43 million metric ton (Kumar et al. 2022). Cottonseed oil (CSO) is the by-product of cotton manufacturer; extracted from the decorticated and delinted cottonseed for their used as edible oil and industrial applications (Orhevba and Efomah 2012; Shah 2017).
  • What is the difference between cotton oil and cottonseed oil?
  • Cotton (Gossypium sp.) is a commercially important annual fiber crop; cottonseed oil (CSO) is an important product extracted from one of the byproducts of cottonseeds. Oil yield varies with cotton species, places, and season when cotton grown and extraction methods used for oil extraction.
  • How to extract CSO from cottonseed?
  • Twenty grams of Lankart-57, RH-112, F-20, K-25, and D-9 cottonseed varieties were used to extract CSO by Soxhlet method using 300 mL n-hexane as solvent at 70 °C temperature for 5 h, and result shows oil content in the range of 12 to 14.55% (Shah 2017).
  • What is the oil percentage of Gossypium?
  • Oil percent is also dependent on weather, growth, and maturity of cottonseed, and oil yield also varies from the season to season and place to place of cottonseed varieties. Oil percentage of 20 wild varieties of Gossypium are ranging from 11.22 to 24.82% (Sharif et al. 2019). CSO is extracted by different conventional and non-conventional methods.
