oils from a selection of amaranthus caudatus, a hypochondriacus and a. cruentus were extracted with hexane. the crude oils were analyzed for acid value, saponification and iodine number, and were included in basal casein diets for rat studies at 5 and 10 levels to replace equal amounts of refined cottonseed oil the oils from a. cruentus and a. hypochondriacus were similar in the oil properties studied and different from a. caudatus. at either 5 or 10 food intake levels, weight gain and per were not statistically different from values reported for cottonseed oil. true digestibility of amaranth oil was lower than that of cottonseed oil it was concluded that crude amaranth oil has lower digestibility than cottonseed oil, but that it is not responsible for growth-depressing effects when the seed is fed raw as compared to processed materials (edited author abstract) 13 refs
