%X Triacylglycerols were determined from a Cameroonian (African) white egusi seed oil (Cucumeropsis Mannii Naudin) using reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. The fatty acid composition of two types of seed (red and white) is obtained by capillary gas chromatography. The study of the triacyiglycerol composition obtained in white egusi seed oil revealed that only nine triacylglycerols were present in amounts above 1% (area). The first five triglycerides represent more than 80% of the total triacylglycerols, and the major triacyiglycerol was palmitoyldilinoleoylglycerol, accounting for 23.6% of the oil. This oil contains a high proportion of linoleic acid (60% wt/wt). Se determin車 la composici車n en triacilgliceroles del aceite de semilla de egusi del Camer迆n (Cucumeropsis Mannii Naudin) utilizando cromatograf赤a l赤quida de alta eficacia en fase inversa. La composici車n en 芍cidos grasos de dos tipos de semillas de egusi (roja y blanca) fue obtenida por cromatograf赤a de gases en columna capilar. El estudio de la composici車n en triacilgliceroles del aceite obtenido de semilla blanca de egusi revel車 que s車lo nueve de ellos se encontraban en proporci車n superior al 1% (en 芍rea). Cinco triacilgliceroles representaron m芍s del 80% del total y el mayoritario fue el palmitoildilinoleoilglicerol (23,6%). Este aceite contiene una alta proporci車n de 芍cido linoleico (60%).
