PHYSICO-CHEMICAL AND MICROBIOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF ARGAN (Argania spinosa L.) OIL - RAW MATERIAL IN COSMETICS INDUSTRY
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 8
Abstract
Natural product with precious virtues, Argan oil (Argania spinosa L.) is a great help for beauty, being the vegetable oil most rich in vitamin E, omega 3 and omega 6 helping to treat and prevent some of the most important problems of the skin. The paper presents the results of some experimental researches on the physicochemical and microbiological properties of Argan oil, being taken into action three samples produced by a Moroccan company and coming from three different batches of cold pressed oil, obtained under the same conditions at the pilot scale. The oil will be used in the production of cosmetics and body care products with increased effectiveness and efficiency.
