Poppy Seed Oil in Bulk Wholesale
Natural Herbal Essential Oil
for Skin Care
Uses
In the 19th century poppy seed oil was used as cooking oil, lamp oil, and varnish, and was used to make paints and soaps. Today, all of these uses continue, and poppyseed oil has additional culinary and pharmaceutical uses.
Particularly notable are its uses as a carrier for oil paints and as a pharmaceutical grade carrier for medicinal iodine and drugs.
Poppyseed oil was sometimes added to olive and almond oils.
In industrialized countries its most important culinary use these days is as a salad or dipping oil.
Oil painting
Poppyseed oil is a drying oil. In oil painting, it is a popular oil for binding pigment, thinning paint, and varnishing finished paintings. Some users consider "sun-thickened" poppyseed oil to be the best painting medium.
Contrast agent
Example of iodine-based contrast in cerebral angiography
Iodized poppyseed oil (oil with iodine added) has several kinds of pharmaceutical uses.
The first of these uses was as a radiocontrast agent used in medical radiology. The origin of this use is attributed to Jean-Athanase Sicard and Jacques Forestier.
Two brand name formulations are ethiodol and lipiodol. These are sterile formulations for medical use that commonly are injected.
These two formulations, and other similarly iodized poppyseed oils, also have multiple applications in the treatment of cancers and iodine deficiencies.
Prevention of iodine deficiency
In some regions where iodized salt is not available, iodized poppyseed oil is the standard for preventing iodine deficiency and its complications including goiter.
It may be given by mouth or by injection, injection being markedly more effective.
The origin of this use is attributed to Paulo Campos. Usually it is given to adults and children by intramuscular injection, one injection delivering enough iodine to last 2 or 3 years.
Poppyseed oil is used because it is already manufactured and it very rarely causes an allergic reaction.
Also, injections are more expensive and more difficult to administer than oral medications, thus there is interest in giving iodized oil by mouth.
Use by mouth requires only food grade, not medical grade, quality control. A randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial on giving infants iodized poppyseed oil together with an oral polio vaccine had good results.
A randomized, double-blind, fully controlled trial in which lipiodol was given by mouth to children had disappointing results.
A recent clinical trial in which iodized oil was given by mouth found that the amount of iodine taken up (see bioavailability) varied with the amount of oleic acid in the oil.
Poppyseed oil has relatively little oleic acid. Peanut oil and rapeseed oil have far more oleic acid and are less expensive, and may be superior to poppyseed oil for giving iodine by mouth.
Cancer therapies
Poppyseed oil had long been used as a carrier for embolizing agents to treat tumors. In the 1980s, in order to better understand the action of these agents, poppyseed oil was replaced with lipiodol, to use its properties as a contrast agent.
It soon became apparent that the lipiodol was selectively taken up by tumors. Whether this is true also of poppyseed oil is unknown.
Iodized poppy-seed oil has an especially high rate of uptake into the cells of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This property was soon recognized as an opportunity to deliver to HCC a variety of highly toxic chemotherapy and radiotherapy agents,and formed the basis of several therapies for HCC not treatable by surgery alone.
Injected emulsions of epirubicin in lipiodol are popular, but greater stability is needed.
Lipiodol is under investigation as an adjuvant and carrier for use in chemotherapy to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
It increases the uptake and hence the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in HCC cells (and also in hepatoblastoma cells). As a carrier, it is under investigation in conjunction with a lipophilic compound of platinum, and in conjunction with a complex derivative of neocarzinostatin.
It also is being investigated as a radiation therapy against hepatocellular carcinoma, by being loaded with an isotope of iodine, iodine-131.
Similarly, lipiodol has been used with the chemotherapy agent epirubicin, but with less success than with doxorubicin.
Epirubicin is less lipophilic than doxorubicin. However, a "water/oil/water" microemulsion, in which epirubicin was dissolved in droplets of water, and the droplets were suspended in lipiodol, significantly increased uptake of epirubicin by HCC cells.
Lipiodol is often used in transarterial embolization (TAE), a treatment for HCC, with and without an additional chemotherapy agent. A systematic review of cohort and randomized studies found that TAE improves survival, but found no evidence of additional benefit for using either chemotherapy agents or lipiodol in TAE.
