Abstract EN

Seed oils have been used for centuries by communities as food, medicine, cosmetic applications, and fuel.

Recently, there has been a renewed interest in these nontimber forest products specifically for use in cosmetic formulations.

The fatty acid compositions of kernel oil of Heynea trijuga was analyzed by GC-FID.

The results showed that the oil content was 37.61 percent (w/w) in seed.

Seed oil was rich in unsaturated fatty acids.

Important fatty acids present were palmitic acid (22.12%), stearic acid (7.51%), oleic acid (25.20%), and linoleic acid (11.65%).
