    (Elsevier, 2024) Gazia Nasir; Sameer Ahmad, Asfaq, Mohd Ishfaq Bhat
    This chapter focuses on the extraction of oil through ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extraction from various oilseeds such as walnut, peanut, perilla seeds, and soybean. The nutritional benefits of these oilseeds including the traditional practices of oil extraction from these oilseeds have also been discussed. It elucidates the synergistic effect of ultrasound and certain enzymes in the extraction of oil from oil-bearing substances. The advantages of using enzymes along with their limitations have also been elaborated. The use of this emerging technique for oil extraction from oil-bearing substances has proven to be quite beneficial in increasing the yield of extraction and enhancing the quality of edible oil.
