| Chemical Properties | Peanut oil is a colorless or pale yellow-colored liquid that has a faintnutty odor and a bland, nutty taste. At about 3°C it becomes cloudy,and at lower temperatures it partially solidifies. |
| Uses | arachis oil (peanut oil) is a carrier oil used in cosmetic products designed for sensitive and delicate skin. |
| Uses | Peanut Oil is the oil obtained from peanuts, consisting principally of the unsaturated fatty acids oleic and linoleic. it is liquid at room tem-perature, has a specific gravity at 38°c of approximately 1.89–0.90, and an iodine number of 85–95. it is removed from the nuts by one of two processes, namely, the expeller method, in which the shelled peanuts are cooked with steam, and fed into an expeller press which physically presses the oil from the meal; or the pre-press solvent sys-tem, which is comparable to the expeller method except that less pressure is applied, which leaves more oil in the meal, and the remain-ing meal is solvent-washed, usually with hexane, to dissolve the oil from the meal. the obtained crude oil is refined. the major use of peanut oil is in cooking oils and salad oils. peanut oil is used in deep-fat frying because of its long frying life and high smoke point. in salad oil, it contributes to the suspension of solids. other applications include shortening ingredient for doughnuts and cakes. |
| Uses | Pharmaceutic aid (solvent). |
| Uses | peanut oil is utilized as a skin softener, emulsifier, and emollient. It can also be used as a substitute for more expensive oils such as almond and olive in cosmetic creams. Peanut oil has a higher vitamin A, vitamin e, and nicotinic acid content than other nut oils. It is obtained by pressing the seed kernels. |
| Production Methods | Refined peanut oil is obtained from the seeds of Arachis hypogaeaLinne′ (Fam. Leguminosae). The seeds are separated from the peanutshells and are expressed in a powerful hydraulic press. The crude oilhas a light yellow to light brown color, and is then purified to makeit suitable for food or pharmaceutical purposes. A suitableantioxidant may be added. |
| Definition | Extractives and their physically modified derivatives. It consists primarily of the glycerides of the fatty acids arachidic, behenic, lignoceric, linoleic, oleic, palmitic and stearic. |
| General Description | Pale yellow oily liquid with a weak odor of peanuts. Floats on water. Contains principally glycerides of oleic and linoleic acids. |
| Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. |
| Reactivity Profile | PEANUT OIL react with acids to liberate heat. Heat is also generated by interaction with caustic solutions. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing with alkali metals and hydrides. React slowly with oxygen in the air to become rancid. |
| Health Hazard | None-is a food. |
| Pharmaceutical Applications | Peanut oil is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical formulationsprimarily as a solvent for sustained-release intramuscular injections.It is also used as a vehicle for topical preparations and as a solventfor vitamins and hormones. In addition, it has been part ofsustained-release bead formulations,nasal drug delivery systems,and controlled-release injectables. Therapeutically, emulsions containing peanut oil have been usedin nutrition regimens, in enemas as a fecal softener, and in otic dropsto soften ear wax. It is also administered orally, usually withsorbitol, as a gall bladder evacuant prior to cholecystography. Peanut oil is also widely used as an edible oil. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions | Peanut oil (20% in the diet) reduces plasma total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol without affecting high-density cholesterol in the plasma when fed to male Syrian golden hamsters at 12 weeks after feeding . Peanut oil feeding also retards the increase in aortic total cholesterol and cholesteryl ester, suggesting that peanut oil delays the development of atherosclerosis in animals consuming an atherosclerosis inducing diet. |
| Safety Profile | A human skin irritant and mild allergen. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing materials. Slight spontaneous heating. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes |
| Safety | Peanut oil is mildly laxative at a dosage of 15–60mL orally or of100–500mL rectally as an enema. Adverse reactions to peanut oil in foods and pharmaceuticalformulations have been reported extensively.These includesevere allergic skin rashes and anaphylactic shock followingconsumption of peanut butter.Some workers have suggestedthat the use in infancy of preparations containing peanut oil,including infant formula and topical preparations, is associatedwith sensitization to peanut, with a subsequent risk of hypersensitivityreactions, and that such products should therefore be avoidedor banned.However, the role of pharmaceutical preparationsin later development of hypersensitivity is disputed since suchpreparations contain highly refined peanut oil that should notcontain the proteins associated with allergic reactions in susceptibleindividuals. Peanut oil is harmful if administered intravenously and it shouldnot be used in such formulations. |
| storage | Peanut oil is an essentially stable material.However on exposureto air it can slowly thicken and may become rancid. Solidifiedpeanut oil should be completely melted and mixed before use.Peanut oil may be sterilized by aseptic filtration or by dry heat, forexample, by maintaining it at 150°C for 1 hour. Peanut oil should be stored in a well-filled, airtight, lightresistantcontainer, at a temperature not exceeding 40°C. Materialintended for use in parenteral dosage forms should be stored in aglass container. |
| Incompatibilities | Peanut oil may be saponified by alkali hydroxides. |
| Regulatory Status | Included in the FDA Inactive Ingredients Database (IM injections,topical preparations, oral capsules, and vaginal emulsions).Included in parenteral and nonparenteral medicines licensed in theUK. Included in the Canadian List of Acceptable Non-medicinalIngredients. |
