Benefits of Moroccan Argan Oil on Platelet Aggregability And Benefits of Moroccan Argan Oil on Platelet Aggregability and Dyslipidemia in High Fat Diet Fed Rats Adil Haimeur 1,2, Nadia Meskini 2, Virginie Mimouni 1, Lionel Ulmann 1, Gérard Tremblin 1 1 Université du Maine, PRES LUNAM, EA 2160 MMS (Mer, Molécules, Santé), Faculté des Sciences et Techniques Le Mans – IUT de Laval (France) 2 Université Hassan II, Laboratoire de Biochimie, Environnement et Agroalimentaire, Faculté des Sciences et Techniques Mohammedia (Maroc) Dietary fat is a key factor in cardiovascular disease prevention. It is well known that saturated fatty acids increase the risk of coronary artery disease while unsaturated fatty acids have a protective effect. Argan oil is an example of a natural product that has been used widely in the daily food and folk medicine in Morocco. This oil is extracted from the hard core of the fruit of the Argania spinosa. Argania spinosa is an endemic tree of south-western Morocco. The main traditional use of this comestible oil is for nutritional purposes. This oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids (oleic and linoleic acids) and antioxidants such as tocopherols, polyphenols and sterols. The quality profile of its phytochemical composition suggests a potential role in the nutritional prevention of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of argan oil on dyslipidemia and platelet hyper-aggregation in high fat-fed rats. Eighteen male Wistar rats (120 g) were divided in 3 groups, and submitted during 8 weeks to the following diets: control (C); high-fat diet (HF) containing 40 % of fat (33 % saturated fat (hydrogenated coconut oil), 5 % lard and 2 % corn and rapeseed oils equally); HFAR group was fed with high fat diet where lard was substituted by 5 % of argan oil. After 8 weeks of treatment, argan oil intake in HFAR group decreased triacylglycerol and total cholesterol levels in plasma compared with HF group. Argan oil intake also showed a significant modification of fatty acid composition in platelets phospholipids, decreasing saturated fatty acids and increasing unsaturated fatty acids levels. Consequently, platelet aggregation in HFAR group was lower as compared with HF group. .

  • Nutraceutical Potentialities of Tunisian Argan Oil Based on Its
    Hanana et al. Lipids in Health and Disease (2018) 17:138 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12944-018-0782-9 RESEARCH Open Access Nutraceutical potentialities of Tunisian Argan oil based on its physicochemical properties and fatty acid content as assessed through Bayesian network analyses Mohsen Hanana1, Hajer Mezghenni2, Rayda Ben Ayed3*, Ali Ben Dhiab4, Slim Jarradi5, Bassem Jamoussi6 and Lamia Hamrouni2 Abstract Background: Argan oil is traditionally produced by cold pressing in South-western Morocco where rural population uses it as edible oil as well as for its therapeutic properties which give them in counterpart valuable income. Given the economical interest of this oil, several attempts of fraudulency have been registered in the world global market leading to loss of authenticity. Our purpose is to launch a program of Tunisian Argan oil valorization since trees from this species have been introduced sixty years ago in Tunisia. The first step was thus to characterize the physicochemical properties and determine the chemical composition of Tunisian Argan oil in order to assess its quality. Methods: Physicochemical parameters of oil quality were determined according to the international standard protocols. Fatty acid content analysis of Argan oils was performed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrophotometry. A comparative study was realized among Tunisian, Moroccan and Algerian samples differing also by their extraction procedure. The impact of geographical localisation on the fatty acids composition was studied by statistical and modeling Bayesian analyses. Results: Physicochemical parameters analysis showed interestingly that Tunisian Argan oil could be classified as extra virgin oil. Argan oil is mainly composed by unsaturated fatty acids (80%), mainly oleic and linoleic acid (linoleic acid was positively influenced by the geographical localization (r =0.899,p = 0.038) and the P/S index (r =0.987,p =0.002)) followed by saturated fatty acids (20%) with other beneficial compounds from the unsaponifiable fraction like polyphenols and carotenoids.

The biocosmetic potential of the castor oil was evaluated for hair through physico-chemical characterization. The various physicochemical parameters (iodine value, pH value, specific gravity, refractive index, peroxide value, etc) were tested in accordance with American standard testing method specifications and compared with argan oil. Accordingly, the parameters tested comply with some journals dealing with cosmetics. Biocosmetic has high potential as a raw material for synthetic cosmetics or blend stock substitution for cosmetics without any modification. The advantage of castor oil over other oils (sunflower, olive, soy bean, corn) would lie in the oil price.

  • Emerging Vegetable Oils in Europe
    CBI Product Factsheet: Emerging vegetable oils in Europe CBI | Market Intelligence Product Factsheet Cloves in Germany | 1 Introduction The drive for innovation in the European food industry leads companies to adopt new ingredients in order to remain competitive. The introduction of new vegetable oils (emerging oils), either as ingredients or as final consumer products, is a form of innovation, differentiation and marketing used by food companies to articulate their competitive edge. On the other side of the coin, exporters of emerging oils still face a number of challenges to access the European market successfully. Whereas the Novel Food Regulation imposes marketing restrictions on a number of innovative products, some barriers to suppliers are often related to issues such as supply sufficiency and stability. At the same time, emerging oils also provide opportunities in terms of niche marketing and value adding propositions. Understanding the European market for emerging vegetable oils Innovation is high on the agenda of food manufacturers in Europe, significantly in North-Western Europe. In order to remain competitive, companies invest heavily in Research & Development (R&D), with the goal of adapting products to ever-changing consumer preferences, food health and safety requirements and introducing novelty into the food market. A large part of this strategy consists in finding new ingredient solutions. Vegetable oils are an integral part of several food products and, as such, are an interesting basis for product development. The introduction of new vegetable oils, either as ingredients or as final consumer products, is a form of innovation, differentiation and marketing used by food companies to articulate their competitive edge.
