Exploring Phylogenetic Relationships between Hundreds of Plant Fatty Acids Synthesized by Thousands of Plants. more details ...
Abstract Fatty acids were extracted from seed melon seed by Soxhlet extraction and 10 fatty acids were isolated and identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Linoleic acid, hexadecanoic acid and octadecanoic acid were the major fatty acids, accounting for more than 89.01% of total fatty acids. Volatile oil obtained by simultaneous distillation extraction method from seed melon seed was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 30 compounds were identified and alkane (22.44%), alcohol (17.22%), organic acids (12.86%) and ketone 2.36%) were the major components representing more than 60.55% of the oil.
