To study the oil contents and fatty acid composition among the samples of Jatropha curcas L. from Mali, the seeds were collected from Katibougou (ecotype I) and Teriyabougou (ecotype II) center. Soxhlet extraction methods were used to determine the oil content of J. curcas seeds. Two different periods were used for various analyses and each analysis was duplicated. The oil concentration ranged in the first and second time of extraction from 62.95±0.24 % to 61.11±.18 % (ecotype I) and 65.9±0.76 % to 65.06±0.36% (ecotype II) respectively. The fatty acid profiles were developed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Sixteen fatty acids were identified in quantifiable amount in the seed oils. Among these, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were obtained with a predominance of unsaturated fatty acids. The oleic acid and linoleic acid were the dominant fatty acids present in the J. curcas seed oil of Mali. Their ratio (Oleic/Linoleic) varies from 0.87±0.02% to 1.22±0.02% (ecotype I) and 0.82±0.06% to 1.13±0.11% (ecotype II). This ratio possesses a high level of methyl oleate (monounsaturated fatty acid) which might have an excellent effect on biodiesel properties.

“…The extracted oil is then fi ltered and excess solvent is removed by using a rotary evaporator at 40°C. Finally, the crude oil is stored in a freezer at −2°C for subsequent analysis (Emil et al 2010 ) . The physicochemical properties include the amount (%) of fatty acid, iodine value, peroxide value, saponi fi cation value, viscosity, calori fi c value, cetane number, fl ash point, etc.…”

“…The plant produces many useful products. For example, the leaves are used in traditional medicine as an antiseptic and the latex produced from the branches can be used as a haemostatic agent [2]. Particularly, the seeds are a good source of oil, which can be used as a diesel substitute after some treatment, such as transesterification and hydrotreatment [3].…”

A new method of cascade extraction and separation of active constituents from Jatropha curcas L. seeds was designed to explore the multi-utilization of Jatropha oil cake. Effort has been devoted to convert the Jatropha oil cake into high value-added products. The Jatropha oil was extracted by an ultrasonic method and other active constituents were prepared by means of flash extraction and resin chromatography etc.; the Jatropha oil was analyzed by GC-MS and the contents of the active constituents were determined by UV spectrophotometry. The yields of Jatropha oil and the active constituents were as follows, Jatropha oil 37.42 g/100 g dry seeds, polysaccharide 0.46 g/100 g dry seeds (purity 75.72%), protein 2.06 g/100 g dry seeds (purity 72.61%), respectively. Furthermore, the contents of flavone was 0.90 g/100 g dry seeds, phytosterol was 0.50 g/100 g dry seeds, anthocyanin was 0.12 g/100 g dry seeds and alkaloids was 1.90 g/100 g dry seeds. Additionally, the molecular weight and antioxidant activity of polysaccharides from Jatropha curcas L. seeds were also evaluated.
