FATTY ACID COMPOSITIONS OF LINSEED (LINUM USITATISSIMUM L.) USED AS OIL AND FIBER CULTIVATED IN TURKEY

In this research, fatty acid yield and composition among the linseed Linum usitatissimum L genus (used oil and fiber) in Turkey, researched and compared. The oil yields of linseed for used oil was determined ۱۴.۰۲%, while the oil yields of linseed for used fiber was determined ۱۰.۳۵%. The major fatty acid compositions of linseed for used oil was linoleic acid (۵۳.۷%) and the other main components was determined as linoleic acid (۱۵.۶%), oleic acid(۱۹.۷%), palmitic acid(۵.۷%) and stearik acid (۳.۳%), respectively. The major fatty acid compositions of linseed for used fiber was linoleic acid (۳۵.۴%) and other significant components were linoleic acid (۳۰.۸%), oleic acid(۲۰.۴%), palmitic acid(۶.۱%) and stearik acid (۴.۳%), respectively. The aim of this study was to determine the oil yield and fatty acid composition of linseed genus, are cultivated in Samsun, Turkey. According to the results of this study, information about fatty oil yields and compositions of every both genus were been evaluated. The linseeds have a very important place due to fatty oil, nutrients constant and fibers used in textiles. The oil obtained from the seeds of the plant is used in the treatment of many diseases with medical purposes, food products and textiles.
