Description Total seed lipids extracted from Murraya koenigii (Linn), Rutaceae were 4.4% of the dry seed. Total lipids consisted of 85.4 neutral lipids, 5.1 glycolipids and 9.5% phospholipids. Neutral lipids consisted of 73.9 triacylglycerols, 10.2% free fatty acids and small amounts of diacylglycerols, monoacylglycerols and sterols. At least 5 glycolipids and 7 phospholipids were identified. Sterylglucoside and acylated sterylglucoside were major glycolipids, while digalactosyldiacylglycerol, monogalactosyldiacylglglycerol and monogalactosylmonoacylglycerol were present in small quantities. Phospholipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylethanolamine and lysophosphatidylcholine as major phospholipids and minor quantities of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. Fatty acid composition of the different neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids were estimated.
