The peroxide value is defined as the amount of peroxide oxygen per 1 kilogram of fat or oil. Traditionally this was expressed in units of milliequivalents, although in SI units the appropriate option would be in millimoles per kilogram (N.B. 1 milliequivalents = 0.5 millimole; because 1 mEq of O2 =1 mmol/2 of O2 =0.5 mmol of O2, where 2 is valence).
Globally, sunflowers are the fourth most important oil crop. Most of the sunflower seed crop is crushed for oil, and most of the oil is consumed by humans. A major byproduct of crushing is protein-rich cake, an excellent feed for livestock. A tiny proportion of the global sunflower crop is directly eaten as “nuts” or kernels.
The plant has an erect rough-hairy stem, reaching typical heights of 3 metres (10 feet). The tallest sunflower on record achieved 9.17 m (30 ft 1 in). [3] Sunflower leaves are broad, coarsely toothed, rough and mostly alternate; those near the bottom are largest and commonly heart-shaped.

Helianthus petiolaris is a North American plant species in the family Asteraceae, commonly known as the prairie sunflower [2] or lesser sunflower. [3] Naturalist and botanist Thomas Nuttall was the first to describe the prairie sunflower in 1821. [4] [5] The word petiolaris in Latin means, “having a petiole”. [5]
