Characterization of seed kernel oil of Bangladeshi mango and it’s evaluation as cosmetic ingredient

Abstract

The physicochemical properties, fatty acid composition, aflatoxin contamination and heavy metals of extracted mango kernel oils of four Bangladeshi varieties (Langra, Gopalbhog, Khirshapat & Amrupaly) were studied. The results were compared with published values of ‘CIR expert panel’, ‘Indian Standard of Mango Kernel Fat’, ‘Scientific Commission of the European Community’ and ‘US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’. The estimated values of aflatoxin B1and total aflatoxins were 1.45809 ppb and 5.14761ppb respectively which were lower than the limit levels of ‘European Community (2 ppb for aflatoxin B1)’ and ‘US FDA (20ppb for total aflatoxins value)’. Heavy metals like arsenic & lead concentration were found 0.034 & 0.45 ppm respectively which were lower than the value of ‘Indian Standard of Mango Kernel Fat; 9231 (1979)’ (0.5 & 5.0 ppm respectively). In fatty acid composition; palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid were within the range of ‘CIR expert panel’ reported values.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind.

Physicochemical Attributes and Antioxidant Potential of Kernel Oils from Selected Mango Varieties

“…28 The present values of MKOs are also quite comparable to those of other oils and butter that are usually used for industrial purposes, such as shea butter (178–193), cocoa butter (188–200), peanut oil (187–196), cottonseed oil (189–198), and colza seed oil (168–181). These results are also comparable to values reported for Sudanese, Malaysian, Iranian, Cote d’Ivoire, Saudi, and Bangladeshi mangoes 13 , 15 , 18 , 23 , 27 , 32 but higher than those reported for Nigerian, Kenyan, and Thai mangoes. 7 , 25 , 33…”

“…The lower iodine values of MKOs also indicate that these oils may be used in the manufacture of biodegradable hydraulic fluids, lubricants, soaps, leather, dressings, cosmetics, and in the candle industry. 32 , 35 The present IV values of MKOs are quite comparable to those reported for Thai mangoes 33 but less than those of Nigerian, Malaysian, Saudi, Bangladeshi, Iranian, and Cote d’Ivoire mangoes. 13 , 15 , 18 , 25 , 27 , 28 , 32 Also, MKOs have lower iodine values (g/100 g) than shea butter (57–66), cottonseed oil (100–105), palm oil (50–55), and cocoa butter (33–42).…”

“…However, the results were lower than those obtained by Muchiri et al. (2012) for Kenyan Kent variety (7.48 mg KOH/g), Nahar, Lisa, Nada, and Begum (2017) for mixed Bangladeshi varieties (6.18 mg KOH/g). The high acidity of the three MKFs may be due to the influence of several factors.…”

(2017) for mixed Bangladeshi varieties (1.73 meq O 2 /kg). All the mentioned MKFs were considered fresh as their PVs were less than 10 meq O 2 /kg.…”
