Abstract :Recently, the use of oils obtained from waste vegetable sources in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries has been increasing. Rosehip fruit is a good source of waste, resulting in a large number of waste seeds after processing for various products in the food industry. Waste rosehip seed was obtained from the rosehip marmalade canning industry. The main aim of this study is to determine fatty acid contents of waste rosehip seed by Gas Chromatography coupled with Mass Spectrometry insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GC-MS);. Eighteen components comprising 100% of the total peak area were determined in the petroleum ether extract. Oleic acid methyl ester insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(9-Octadecenoic acid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Z);-, methyl ester); insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(36.42%); was determined to be the dominant fatty acid.
