The seeds of two medicinal plants, Awala and Bhendi Gulab were extracted with n-hexane to yield the oils in 15.8 and 17.4%.The seed oils were analysed for characteristics such as specific gravity, refractive index, colour, acid value, iodine value and saponification value. The fatty acid composition of these seed oils, as determined by GLC, showed the major fatty acids to be palmitic, oleic and linoleic acids. |
