Özet Antioxidant activities of different nut oils ranged from 11.43 (peanut) to 65.58% (pistachio) in cold pressed oils whereas in case of soxhlet extracted oils they were in the range of 11.32 (hazelnut) to 51.28% (pistachio). β-Carotene contents of oils obtained by cold pressing and soxhlet extraction changed between 7.53 (almond) and 13.58 µg/100 g (pistachio). The highest total phenol contents (2.36 mg gallic acid equivalent/100 g) were observed in pistachio oils obtained by cold press. The oleic acid contents of cold pressed and soxhlet extracted oils were between 19.88 (walnut) and 69.43% (pecan) to 19.07 (walnut) and 68.53% (pecan), respectively. The linoleic acid contents of nut oils from cold press system vary between 12.78 (hazelnut) and 63.56% (walnut), whereas in case of soxhlet extraction, it changed between 11.78 (hazelnut) and 62.41% (walnut). The α-tocopherol contents of cold pressed nut oils changed between 0.07 (walnut) and 257.42 mg/kg (hazelnut) α-tocopherol contents of nut oils extracted by soxhlet extraction changed between 0.03 (pistachio) and 209.73 mg/kg (hazelnut). The catechin contents of cold pressed nut oils were between 0.56 (cashew) and 3.76 µg/100 g (pistachio), whereas that of soxhlet extracted oil varied between 0.64 (cashew) and 3.82 µg/100 g (cashew).
