Background: Since time immemorial, humans have always been interested in lipids for various uses, namely food, cosmetology, medicine, etc. Many seeds, sources of oils, are increasingly studied for their nutritional and therapeutic properties. Methods: The present study aims to valorize the vegetable oil obtained from the seeds of the Moringa oleifera plant widely cultivated in the southwest of Algeria, using the solid-liquid extraction technique. In addition, the fatty acid analysis of this oil, using the gas chromatography technique. Result: An oil yield of 30.43% was obtained, revealed that it contains ten different compounds. The characterization of the oil obtained (physico-chemical properties such as organoleptic properties, density, viscosity, refractive index) proved to comply with international standards and AFNOR standards. In addition, it turned out that Moringa oleifera oil has a very interesting antioxidant power. However, this oil did not show any antibacterial activity on the strains tested.
