Abstract
Abstract1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane has been evaluated as a nonflammable, low toxicity extractant in oilseeds in comparison with petroleum ether, cyclopentane, and carbon tetrachloride. Full fat and defatted soybean flake were analyzed for oil content, free fatty acid, and total fat. 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane appears to be generally acceptable for oilseed analyses. Small, but statistically significant differences were found between solvents which were not explainable on the basis of physical parameters.
