In order to provide basis for the comprehensive development and utilization of herbs,the oil contents of eighteen kinds of herbal seeds were determined by extraction method,and the composition of fatty acid was analyzed by GC-MS. The results were as the following t-he oil extracting rate of Perilla frutescens seed was 12. 82%,with 81. 20% linoleic acid in it,so it was available in high-grade edible oil. Otherwise,the oil content of Impatiens balsamina,Scutellaria baicalensis,Schisandra chinensis,Nepeta cataria and Platycodon grandiflorus were all up to 8%,and the total amount of linoleic acid and lino-lenic acid was over 50%,so they could be used as functional oil and edible oil. Wild Amaranth seeds could be used in health oil for it contained 7. 03% squalene.
