Physicochemical properties of argessi (Chrozophphora Brochiana) kenaf (Hibiscus Cannabinus) and loofah (Luffa Cylindrica) seed oils

A study on new sources of edible oils namely argessi (Chrozophora brochiana), kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) and loofah (Luffa cylindrica) was conducted to quantify the physicochemical characteristics of their seed oil. Percent crude oil content of the three plant species ranges were: 37 - 41, 20 – 23....
