The alcoholysis of crambe and camelina oils was carried out with oleyl alcohol, alcohols derived from crambe and camelina oils, and n‐octanol using potassium hydroxide as catalyst to prepare alkyl ...esters. Conversions to alkyl esters were about 0% with oleyl alcohol, 20–45% with crambe and camelina alcohols, and 60% with n‐octanol. The conversion to esters for crambe and camelina oil with oleyl alcohol and n‐octanol increased with increasing molar excess of alcohol. Composition of the alkyl esters formed was as expected from the composition of the reaction partners.

Cold-pressed camelina oil (CPCO) is exceptional seed oil with a unique fatty acid profile promoting health and wellness. Therefore, this work focused on estimating and comparing the physicochemical ...properties and sensory quality of eight CPCO samples available on the Polish market. All analyzed oils were rich in α-linolenic acid (ALA = 29.91–36.27%) and contained low amounts of saturated fatty acids (SAFA = 10.61–12.20%). Oxidative stability of the studied CPCO samples, using the Rancimat test, ranged between 4.8 and 6.8 h, while peroxide (PV = 0.58–4.61 meq O2/kg) and anisidine (AnV = 0.15–1.60) values differed significantly. Moreover, the water and volatile matter contents (WVMC = 0.05–0.17%) and phosphorus level (P = 3.03–13.58 mg/kg) were monitored in commercial CPCO samples. Low concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminants (Σ4PAHs = 0.72–7.22 μg/kg) were established in all oils. A quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) was developed to characterize the sensory properties of eight CPCO samples. Six oil samples had high overall sensory quality (OSQ > 4.0), but OSQ < 3.5 was an unacceptance sensory quality for two of the oils. The developed lexicon might be used in the oil industry to monitor product quality, sensory profiling of new product development, and benchmark competitors’ samples.
