Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate physical analysis of black cumin seeds and determined chemical composition of black cumin seeds extraction oil from black cumin seeds
Black cumin seeds collected from the local market, were
analyzed for :protein – moisture –oil content– fibers _carbohydrates and ash contents then the results were recorded 18.64 ,3.88,27.095,29.74,17 ,3.615 respectively.
physical properties colour (red 10.55 , yellow 44.5, blue 0.015), refractive index (RI) 1.4675, viscosity(16.48), density(0.9065) and chemical properties (free fatty acid ( FFA) 2.009, peroxide value (PV) 4.8.
