In this study we planned to identify and quantify the lipid composition of Saudi Lepidium sativum seed and to evaluate the potential antimicrobial activity of the extracted fixed oil . GC- MS analysis of the fixed oil revealed the presence of 16 components. Major constituents are :?-amyrin(31.33%) ,9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester(15.97%) ,9-octadecenoic acid methyl ester(11.93%),?-amyrin(9.32%) , 11-eicosenoic acid methyl ester (6.64%), 9,12– octadecadienoic acid (6.03%) , hexadecanoic acid methyl ester(5.24%) . In cup plate agar diffusion bioassay, the oil which was extracted by two different methods (soxhlet and maceration) was evaluated for antimicrobial activity and the effect of .the method of extraction on the the antimicrobial potency was investigated.
