General description
Sunflower seed oil from Helianthus annuus contains saturated fatty acids (palmitic and stearic acids), monounsaturated fatty acid (oleic acid), and polyunsaturated acid (mostly linoleic acid). In addition, this edible oil also contains nonglyceridic contents including tocopherols and plant sterols, and is rich in vitamins and minerals.
Application
Sunflower seed oil from Helianthus annuus was used as a vehicle to administer tamoxifen and 4-hydroxytamoxifen to mice.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Sunflower seed oil is one of the most used vegetable oils in human nutrition. Oilseed crop sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is also used for biodiesel production. Sunflower oil is used as an emollient in cosmetics, and it serves as an effective phenolic antioxidant. Phytosterols in sunflower oil help in regulating the cholesterol levels in the body. Therefore, sunflower oil may be used to treat pathological conditions such as like acne, arthritis, and hair damage.
