Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Storage Temperature on the Stability of Phytonutrients in Palm ConcentratesK. Chandrasekaram, M. H. Ng, Y. M. Choo, C. H. ChuahPalm phytonutrient concentrates; a valuable by-product from the production of palm biodiesel contains an abundance of natural phytonutrients such as carotenes, vitamin E, sterols, squalene and coenzyme Q. The present research described the concentration of phytonutrients that obtained from palm biodiesel production. The concentration of phytonutrients available in palm phytonutrients concentrate is ten times higher than in crude palm oil. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,585 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Antioxidants in Oil Palm Empty Fruit BunchesNg Mei Han, Choo Yuen MayThe oil palm Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) undergoes sterilization before being threshed to separate the fruits from the bunch. Upon threshing, the fruits were pressed for its oil while the now Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) will be discarded or used as biomass. It is believed that the EFB contains small amount of oil as well as phytonutrients which contain antioxidative … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Sep 2012 · 7,184 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Palm Oil with Methane Avoidance at Palm Oil Mill: A Case Study of Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle AssessmentChiew Wei Puah, Yuen May Choo, Soon Hock OngThe study discusses a case study of cradle to gate life cycle assessment for the production of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) with methane avoidance at palm oil mill. The improved milling process enables total utilization of the oil palm fruit to produce alow oil palm based food source. The minimal modification in the mill includes cleaning of Fresh Fruit Bunches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 9 Sep 2013 · 7,387 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeparation of Coenzyme Q10 in Palm Oil by Supercritical Fluid ChromatographyNg Mei Han, Choo Yuen May, Ma Ah Ngan et al.Palm oil is known to host a variety of phytonutrients; some having antioxidant property such as the carotenes and vitamin E. These antioxidants are also present in the oil recovered from the palm-pressed fibre. Study was carried out to investigate the presence of coenzyme Q10, yet another non-glyceride compound which possesses antioxidant property in crude palm oil (CPO) and palm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 7,667 accessesView PDF Cite
