The composition of fatty acids and phytosterols was investigated in the oil extracted from the pistachio seeds coming from differentcountries, (Italy, Turkey, Iran and Greece). The oils are characterized by high contents of oleic acid and b-sitosterol, showing a compositionalmost similar to that of olive oil. The pattern recognition of data for fatty acids sterols, by multivariate analyses, may provideuseful criteria for origin authentication of pistachio seeds.

Abstract
The composition of fatty acids and phytosterols was investigated in the oil extracted from the pistachio seeds coming from differentcountries, (Italy, Turkey, Iran and Greece). The oils are characterized by high contents of oleic acid and b-sitosterol, showing a compositionalmost similar to that of olive oil. The pattern recognition of data for fatty acids sterols, by multivariate analyses, may provideuseful criteria for origin authentication of pistachio seeds.File in questo prodotto:
