“…The yields of the oils were 16.12 and 28.34%, respectively. This extraction yield is consistent with findings reported in other countries, indicating that the extraction efficiency of Yemeni Moringa oleifera seeds oil (YMOSO) using the cold press method and soxhlet with n-hexane is comparable across different regions [27] [28] [30]. 1.…”

“…The value of free fatty Acid % for (YMOSO) is 1.12 % of the oil obtained using cold press method and 2.98% of the oil obtained using soxhlet with n-hexane. FFA is an important quality parameters in the (YMOSO), referring to oil deterioration [27]. The result shows that the acid value (AV) was to be 5.99±0.5 mg/g using cold press method and 6.52±0.5 mg/g using soxhlet with n-hexane NaOH/g oil for (YMOSO).…”

Moringa oleifera is a versatile tree with nutritional, medicinal and environmental benefits making it a valuable resource for communities in many regions of the world. This study aimed to extracted oil from Yemeni Moringa oleifera seeds oil (YMOSO) using two methods (cold pressing and seoxhlet n-hexane). The yields of the oils were 16.12% and 28.34, % respectively. The yields of the oils were 16.12% % and 28.34% respectively. Where it was investigate the chemical and physical characteristics by two method cold press and soxhlet n-hexane showed of Yemeni Moringa oleifera seeds oil (YMOSO), including a free fatty acid (FFA) content of 1.12 % and 2.98 %, an acid value of 5.99±0.5 mg/g and 6.52±0.5 mg/g, an iodine value of 67.68±0.1 mg/g and 67.43±0.1 mg/g, a saponification value of 189.51±0.1 mg/g and 188.49±0.1 mg/g, a refractive index of 1.46±0.01 and 1.47±0.01 at 25 °,C a moisture content of 0.24±0.03% and 0.36±0.03%, a density of 0.90±0.05 g/ml and 0.89±0.05 g/ml at 25 °C, a specific gravity of 0.968±0.03 g/ml and 0.956±0.03 g/ml at 25 °C, and a viscosity of 48 and 47 cP at 25 °C respectively. the chemical components of the oil were determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GS-MS).
