Peanut oil, also known as groundnut oil or arachis oil, is a vegetable oil derived from peanuts. The oil usually has a mild or neutral flavor [ 1 ] but, if made with roasted peanuts, has a stronger peanut flavor and aroma.
The peanut (Arachis hypogaea), also known as the groundnut, [2] goober (US), [3] goober pea, [4] pindar (US) [3] or monkey nut (UK), is a legume crop grown mainly for its edible seeds. It is widely grown in the tropics and subtropics by small and large commercial producers, both as grain legume [ 5 ] and as an oil crop. [ 6 ]
Ara h 1 is a seed storage protein from Arachis hypogaea (peanuts). It is a heat stable 7S vicilin-like globulin [1] with a stable trimeric form [2] that comprises 12-16% of the total protein in peanut extracts. [3] Ara h 1 is known because sensitization to it was found in 95% of peanut-allergic patients from North America. In spite of this high ...
Peanut agglutinin (PNA) is plant lectin protein derived from the fruits of Arachis hypogaea. Peanut agglutinin may also be referred to as Arachis hypogaea lectin. Lectins recognise and bind particular sugar sequences in carbohydrates; peanut agglutinin binds the carbohydrate sequence Gal-β(1-3)-GalNAc.
[2] [3] At least one species, the peanut (Arachis hypogaea), is a major food crop species of global importance; some of the other species are cultivated for food to a small extent in South America. Other species such as A. pintoi are cultivated worldwide as forage and soil conditioner plants, with the leaves providing high-protein feed for ...
Arachidyl alcohol (icosan-1-ol), is a waxy substance used as an emollient in cosmetics.It is a straight-chain fatty alcohol with 20 carbon atoms, typically obtained via the hydrogenation of arachidic acid or arachidonic acid, both of which are present in peanut oil.
It is a minor constituent of cupuaçu butter (7%), [2] perilla oil (0–1%), [3] peanut oil (1.1–1.7%), [4] corn oil (3%), [5] and cocoa butter (1%). [6] The salts and esters of arachidic acid are known as arachidates. Its name derives from the Latin arachis—peanut. It can be formed by the hydrogenation of arachidonic acid.
