Processing Sesame Seeds and Bioactive Fractions

Abstract This review intends to highlight the techniques of value addition to sesame seed. As well as its utilization as an edible oil source, it can also be utilized to isolate several valuable components for specialty applications. This review covers utilization of sesame seed hull as a source of antioxidants. This hull was also reported as a source of cellulose which was used to prepare the nano-cellulose particle for better functionality. Sesame meal was also taken into consideration as a source of sesame lignan glycosides, phenolic antioxidants, and protein based bioactives like sesame peptides. This review also covers the probable utilization pattern for each bioactive fraction and the future scope of the bioactives for better exploitation. Preparation of the nano-sized sesame glucosides with improved adsorption and transport properties and prospects of nano-sesame protein have been included in this review as part of sustainable product developments.
