Pumpkin Seed

Pumpkin seed (Cucurbita pepo L.) is a valuable oilseed distinguished by its high nutritional value and rich oil content. The seeds contain approximately 30-50% oil and protein in the range of 20-35%. The oil fraction primarily consists of oleic and linoleic acids, and these two fatty acids constitute the majority of the total fatty acid composition; therefore, pumpkin seed oil stands out as an important source of vegetable oil rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Additionally, the seeds offer a certain antioxidant capacity and functional value thanks to the tocopherols, phytosterols, and phenolic compounds they contain. Due to these nutritional and functional properties, pumpkin seed serves as a valuable raw material for food, supplement, cosmetic, and vegetable oil applications.
