Research Progress on Bioactivities and Applications of Berry Seed Oils
Berry seed oils are functional oils extracted from berry seeds,which are by-products of the berry processing industry.Berry seed oils are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid,as well as bioactive compounds including tocopherols,carotenoids,squalene and phytosterols.This compounds provide abundant nutrients and exert multiple health benefits,making berry seed oils ideal dietary supplements.The author reviewed the chemical compositions,bioactive properties,and potential applications of seed oils from sea buckthorn,raspberry,pomegranate,grape,blackberry,blueberry,and kiwi fruit seed oils in the fields of functional foods,medicine,and cosmetics.The limitations of the current research on berry seed oils and their bioactive properties were also elucidated,and key areas of future research was highlighted to provide a reference for further accelerating the development and utilization of berry seed oils and advancing the berry seed oil industry in China.
