Abstract: The Fatty Acid Analysis was carried out on the seeds of Gold Mohur (Delonix Regia) and aidan (Tetrapleura tetraptera) to determine their fatty acid composition, the result shows that the two seeds contain both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in different proportions. The result shows that the Gold Mohur (Delonix regia) is predominated by unsaturated fatty acids with total unsaturated fatty acid composition of 63.88% and the saturated fatty acid composition of 36.12% while the aidan fruit seed (Tetrapleura tetraptera) was predominated by the saturated fatty acid with total saturated fatty acid composition of 53.12% and the unsaturated fatty acid composition of 46.90% respectively
