Cottonseed oil, with the CAS number 8001-29-4, is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of cotton plants (Gossypium species). It is primarily composed of triglycerides, with a high content of unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid and oleic acid, making it a liquid at room temperature. The oil is light yellow in color and has a mild flavor, which makes it suitable for culinary applications, including frying and salad dressings. Cottonseed oil is also known for its relatively high smoke point, which enhances its stability during cooking. Additionally, it contains natural antioxidants, such as tocopherols, which can help prolong shelf life. However, it is important to note that cottonseed oil may contain gossypol, a toxic compound found in unrefined oil, which can pose health risks if consumed in large quantities. Due to its composition, cottonseed oil is also used in the production of margarine, shortening, and various processed foods, as well as in non-food applications like cosmetics and industrial lubricants.
