Abstract
⺠The oils of the Opuntia ficus-indica seeds presented high level of unsaturated fatty acids. ⺠Three isomers of feruloyl-sucrose and a putative sinapoyl-diglycoside were identified. ⺠The defatted seed wastes still contain components constituting a source for natural foods. ⺠Seeds of the orange variety are significantly better sources of these bioactive molecules.
