Abstract:
The physicochemical properties and chemical composition of the fixed oils of the seeds of Ocimum sanctum and Salvia aegyptica both belonging to N.O. Labiateae were investigated. The amount of the oil extracted from their seeds were 18.2 and 17.4 % respectively. The fatty acid composition of the seed oils of Ocimum sanctum and Salvia aegyptica were determined by GLC and it revealed the presence of capric (0.00, 1.34 %), lauric (2.84, 0.00 %), myristic (1.90, 0.00 %), palmitic (5.54, 9.42 %), stearic (3.12, 3.1 %), oleic (6.00, 0.00 %), linoleic (59.1, 84.53%), linolenic (21.7, 0.00 %), and arachidic (0.00, 1.53 %) acids respectively.
