Zusammenfassung: | Cnidoscolus phyllacanthus (faveleira) nuts had a high oil content (32% of nut, 54% of kernels) and the meal had a high nitrogen level (12.4% of oil‐free kernels) and acceptable amino acid composition. The oil contained 55% linoleic acid and traces of arachidic, gadoleic and behenic acids. The possible presence of toxic substances in the meal must be considered. |
