Trichosanthes cucumerina seed and seed oil have been investigated for their chemical, physico-chemical properties, characterization and fatty acid profile. The properties were assessed by standard methods and the fatty acid profile was carried out using gas chromatography fatty acid methyl ester analysis. The seed was found to contain 71.1% crude oil, 1.6% Crude Protein, 2.9% carbohydrate, 2.8% crude Fiber, and 1.6% Ash. Iodine, Peroxide, and Acid the molecular weights of the seed oil are 0.84 gI 2 of oil, 2.0 meq O 2 /kg oil and 4.0 mg/KOH/g, respectively, with 4.0 Free Fatty Acid and a Saponification Value of 379.12 mg/g. The oil is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids that are vital for growth, maintenance of the cell membrane, development, and boosting of the immune system in humans. It qualifies to be classified as an edible vegetable oil and can also be useful in the soap and cosmetic industry.
