The fixed oil from the seeds of Carum co‐pticum Benth. of Indian origin has been analysed and the composition of its fatty acids determined by fractionation and thiocyanometric methods. Petroselinic acid has been found to be the major component of the fatty acids; linolenic acid and any saturated acid other than palmitic are absent.
