Abstract

This article provides information on the biological characteristics and technical Gossipol (Gossypium) isolation of Gossipol acetic acid (GSK) based on the fact that all species of cotton belong to the genus Gossipium and belong to the family Malvaceae. The gossypol molecule has a large number of polar groups, for example, six hydroxyl groups. But the presence of two heavy dialkylnaphthalene groups makes it insoluble in water. The seeds contain gossypol pigment (a toxic organic compound), which is extracted during the oil extraction process and various synthetic substances are produced from it. Residual tar in oil production is also sent to the national economy for use.
