“…The relative distribution of fatty acids in the oils of all elite lines containing palmitic acid (C16:0) ranged from 0.20% to 3.18%. Similar results were reported by Bilin et al, who found that the concentration of palmitic acid was in the range of 1-1.98% [19]. All jojoba lines were in the standard range, except S 4 , which exhibited the highest palmitic content (3.18%) compared to other elite jojoba lines.…”

Evaluation of the Effect of Elite Jojoba Lines on the Chemical Properties of their Seed Oil

et al. 2022

Jojoba oil (JO) extracted from seeds has outstanding properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities, and can be stored forlong periodsof time. The unique properties of jojoba oil depend on its chemical composition; therefore, the effect of the jojoba genotype on the chemical properties and active components of the seed oil was evaluated in this study. Oil samples were collected from 15 elite Egyptian jojoba lines. The chemical composition, such as moisture, crude fiber, crude oil, ash, and crude protein of elite lines’ seeds was determined to investigate the variation among them based on the jojoba genotype. In addition, the iodine value was obtained to measure the degree of jojoba oil unsaturation, whereas the peroxide number was determined as an indicator of the damage level in jojoba oil. Fatty acid composition was studied to compare elite jojoba lines. Fatty acid profiles varied significantly depending on the jojoba genotype. Gadoleic acid exhibited the highest percentage value (67.85–75.50%) in the extracted jojoba oil, followed by erucic acid (12.60–14.81%) and oleic acid (7.86–10.99%). The iodine value, peroxide number, and fatty acid composition of the tested elite jojoba lines were compared withthose reported by the International Jojoba Export Council (IJEC). The results showed that the chemical properties of jojoba oils varied significantly, depending on the jojoba genotype.

“…Therefore, the evaluation of genetic variability may be key to improving jojoba yield and properties in the near future [16]. Several studies have beenreported on cultivated Egyptian jojoba shrubs [17][18][19][20][21], however, few have investigated the chemical properties of JO and its chemical composition.…”

“…As a high yielding non-edible oil, its use as a raw material for the creation of biodiesel has been considered (Sandouqa & Al-Hamamre 2019). Of note, jojoba oil global production is growing rapidly, and has already exceeded 15,000 tons (2018) and is expected to reach 22,000 tons by 2022 (Worldwide analysis on the jojoba oil market; Bilin et al 2018). This tremendous growth may be due to market demands, or alternatively, suggests an uncontrolled increase that will result in consequent over-supply, emphasizing the need to develop novel jojoba-based products and usages.…”

Jojoba, Simmondsia chinensis (Link) C.K. Schneider is an evergreen shrub widely grown in Israel, the Middle East, South America, Africa, India and Australia used as an agricultural crop for commercial purposes and as a source of its non-edible natural wax. It is widely used in pharmaceutics and cosmetic formulation due to its unique structural characteristics and beneficial health effects. In addition, extensive work has been published on the plant’s health-promoting activities, ranging from antioxidant activities to the treatment of cancer. Being a rich source of natural liquid wax, the majority of research regarding jojoba focuses on its applications, as well as on the ability to exploit the residual plant materials obtained in its production. To date, several potent phytochemicals have been attributed to its medicinal properties, e.g. simmondsin and phenolic compounds. The current review emphasizes the evidence-based medicinal qualities of the wax and plant extracts and highlights the gaps of knowledge in these research areas and the importance of acquiring additional understanding of jojoba distinctive traits.
