Seeds and seed oil from a tree (Moringa peregrina, commonly called "Yassar") used in Saudi Arabia were analyzed for chemical composition, macro-nutrients, and fatty acid composition. The seeds were found to contain 22.1% protein, 15.3% carbohydrate, 54.3% oil, 3.6% fiber, and 2.5% ash. Analysis of the seed oil fatty acids by gas-liquid chromatography revealed a composition of: 78.0, 9.3, 3.5, 2.6, 2.4, 1.8, 1.6, and 0.6% of oleic, palmitic, stearic, behenic, palmitoleic, arachidic, linolenic, and linoleic acids, respectively (representing polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acid contents of 84.7 and 14.7% respectively).
