Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the potential applications of Adansonia digitata (baobab) seed oil in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries by analyzing its chemical composition and antimicrobial activity. The oil was extracted using the maceration method with n-hexane and characterized through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to identify its fatty acids and bioactive constituents
