The increasing popularity of chia oil as a source of ω-3 fatty acids is evident. This fact led us to this study concerning the differences between white and dark Argentinean chia seed morphology and the oils obtained from them. Salvia hispanica fruit consists in a nutlet, commonly named as seed, whose morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy. Both types of seeds are very similar, with some differences in pericarp surface and layer of bone cell arrangement. The analysis of the corresponding oils revealed slightly, but statistically significant differences in some parameters, mainly in fatty acid composition, iodine value, refractive index and acid value. In spite of the differences in fatty acid composition, both white and ...
