Biochemical Studies on Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil

---

The purpose of the present study was to examine the physico-chemical properties, fatty acids composition, unsaponifiable matter, tocopherols and phenolic content of Moringa oleifera seed oil from Al-Ahsa, Saudi Arabia. In addition, biological evaluation of this oil was determined. Moringa oil showed a better overall quality, its, acid, peroxide, iodine, saponification values. Sterol fraction was found rich in β-sitosterol (45.11), stigmasterol (19.20%), campesterol (16.90%) and Δ5-avenasterol (10.00%). The major fatty acids were identified as oleic acid (65.00%). These results strongly suggested in potential use Moringa oil as non - conventional seed crop for high quality oil.
