Physicochemical properties of crude elateriospermum tapas seeds oil

The crude oil of perah, Elateriospermum tapos, seeds collected from northern Perak was extracted. The chemical properties of extracted oil such as acid value, free fatty acids percentage, iodine value, peroxide value and saponification value were analyzed. The oil physical characteristics such as vi...
