Abstract

GC-MS analysis were conducted on Raphanus sativus and observed that extracts of seeds analyzed with gas-chromatography mass spectrometry obtained the number of compounds and molecular weight of the compounds present. The isolated essential oils from seeds of Raphanus sativus were also analyzed by (GC-MS). Seeds oil of Raphanus sativus were found richer in compounds such as Oleic Acid, Erucic Acid representing 30.011%, 5.464% and 16.411% of the total oil, respectively. Seeds oil of Raphanus sativus was constituted of hydrocarbons, alcohols, and phenols. The essential oil from seeds of Raphanus sativus was characterized by the presence of alcohols and esters. Docosanoic Acid and Octadecanoic Acid predominated in essential oils, constituting 0.850% and 2.944%.
