Abstract
The grape seed oil concentration of native American and hybrid grapes ranged from 13 to 18.4% with a weighted mean of 14.72%. These concentrations were found to be in the same range as the seed oil content in Vitis vinifera grapes. The predominant fatty acid was linoleic acid, which represented over 71.5% of the fatty acids. The fatty acid composition of the grape seed oil is relatively constant in composition, regardless of species or variety.
