Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article presents the results of the 2014-2015 studies on seed yield and the physicochemical and fatty acid composition of Akmay grade safflower oil cultivated at the experimental plot of LLC "Farmer 2002", Astrakhan district, Akmola region, Kazakhstan.The peroxide and acid number was determined with the titrimetric method with visual indication, and the iodine number was calculated as well.The fatty acid composition of oil was studied using the gas chromatography method.Up to 12 fatty acids were detected in the composition of total lipids.The highest content of fatty acids in the composition of safflower seed oil triglycerides was observed in unsaturated linoleic acid (82.7%).During the years of research, the weather conditions greatly influenced the seed yield and the physicochemical quality of safflower oil.Conclusions about future use of this variety as raw material for producing edible vegetable oil were drawn.
