Abstract

Papua has the highest number of flora species in Indonesia. One of the endemic species is the screw palm (Pandanus) fruits which can be potential plant oil. Plant oil has attracted many interests because of its function for food and non-food product development. The objective of this research was to identify the fatty acid composition of Pandanus iwen and Pandanus jiulianettii oil extracted using the method of wet rendering with an aluminium pan. The fatty acid composition was analysed using gas chromatography-FID method. The result showed eleven fatty acids found in both Pandanus iwen and Pandanus jiulianettii. They are C12:0, C14:0, C16:0, C18:0, C20:0, C22:0, C16:1, C18:1, C18:2, C18:3, and C20:1. Both the saturated and unsaturated fatty acid composition of Pandanus iwen (saturated 24.48%, unsaturated 35.10%) is higher than Pandanus jiulianettii (saturated 21.95%, unsaturated 32.58%).
