Sesame oil

Description:
Sesame oil, with the CAS number 8008-74-0, is a pale yellow to light brown oil derived from sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum). It is primarily composed of triglycerides, with a high content of unsaturated fatty acids, particularly oleic and linoleic acids, which contribute to its nutritional value and stability. Sesame oil is known for its distinctive nutty flavor and aroma, making it a popular ingredient in culinary applications, especially in Asian cuisine. It has a relatively high smoke point, making it suitable for frying and sautéing. In addition to its culinary uses, sesame oil possesses various health benefits, including antioxidant properties due to the presence of sesamolins and sesamin, which may help in reducing cholesterol levels and promoting heart health. Furthermore, it is utilized in traditional medicine and cosmetics for its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties. Overall, sesame oil is valued not only for its flavor and versatility in cooking but also for its potential health benefits and applications in personal care products.
