Abstract

This article examines the technology of extracting oil from egg yolk, its physicochemical properties, and the possibilities of its application in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. During the research process, a laboratory-scale extraction method was used to obtain oil from egg yolk. The results showed that egg yolk contains a high proportion of lipid components and that the oil obtained from it is rich in biologically active compounds.The research findings expand the possibilities for the effective utilization of egg yolk oil.
