Abstract:
This research discussed an analytical study of Citrullus colocynthis plant's oil , where to abstract oil from seeds we used solvent extraction technique by two method (n_hexane = 15%, petroleum ether = 6%) and pressing technique = 0% and a chemical tests conducted on the extracted (iodine number = 107.865g/100g, free fatty acid value = 141mg/g oil, peroxide value = 10.4mg/g) and physical properties (refractive live = 1.478, the viscosity =13.5 sec). This study was divided into three chapters according to Vancouver's analytical research method, the first chapter is an Introduction about the plant in terms of origin and agricultural environment, classification and use, chapter two includes practical way to extract oil from seeds chemical and physical tests mentioned above and chapter three on the results and discussion.
