Abstract
Oils from seven rapeseed cultivars ranging in erucic acids levels from 0–59%; a commercial low erucic acid, refined oil; purified samples of linoleic, linolenic, caprylic, arachidonic and erucic acids; commercial and refined lecithin, egg lecithin and acetone-extracted rapeseed lecithin from low erucic acid rapeseed oil and glycerol tripalmitate, were analyzed for fatty acids by gas liquid chromatography and for gross energy (heat of combustion) by adiabatic bomb calorimetry. The oils ranged from 39.4–40.6kJ/g (9.4–9.7 Kcal/g), reflecting the higher values of the C:22 component for the high erucic acid cultivars. Rapeseed gums (oil-free) contained 30.2kJ/g (7.22 Kcal/g). The gross energy value of raw gums, available for digestion and potentially effective as a dietary energy source, was estimated to be between 28.9–30.5kJ/g (6.9 and 7.3 Kcal/g) depending mainly on the prevailing content of rapeseed oil.
