ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]The research project studies the analysis of pear and its oil. The
mesocarp from edible African pear “DacryodesEdulis†were evaluated for
their oil yield. The pulp from this pear were oven dried at 100oC-105oC
to a moisture content level of 29%.The mesocarp was subjected to
proximate analysis to determine the percentage of the moisture, ash,
fat, crude fibre, crude protein and carbohydrate content which resulted
to the values of 29%, 2%, 19.6%, 25.5%, 11.9%, and 12% respectively.
Then the dried sample was pulverized by using hammer mill and the oil
was extracted by
