The present work evaluates the benefit of using ultrasonic pre-irradiation before extracting oil from almond and apricot seeds by aqueous enzymatic oil extraction (AEOE) process. The use of a commercial preparation which is a mixture of three proteases in AEOE gave 75% w/w oil yield from almonds at pH 4.0 in 18 h at 40 °C. The ultrasonic pre-irradiation at 70 W for 2 min increased the yield to 95%, w/w and reduced the extraction time to 6 h. The effect of ultrasonic pre-irradiation on meal morphology could be visually seen by scanning electron micrographs. It indicates development of of microfractures and disruption of cell walls in almond powder. With apricot, also, ultrasonic pre-irradiation also marginally increased the oil yield obtained by AEOE to 77% w/w and reduced the extraction time to 6 h. Thus, ultrasonic pre-irradiation step may reduce time required to extract oil from edible oils from plant sources and hence can improve through put in commercial oil production process.
