Tropical World provides us several underexploited or unexploited trees. This study presents the chemical composition of 21 different naturally occurring seed oils from Sarawak, Eastern Malaysia. The triglycerides vary between 10 - 98%. Some of the species contain highest amounts of lauric acid (Gymnacranthera contracta), palmitic acid (Dacryodes costata), stearic acid (Garcinia hombroniana), and alpha-linolenic acid (Cephalomappa beccariana). Their potential industrial applications are compared to those of existing available crops.
