The oil extraction from Carrot seed was achieved through Soxhlet extraction method. Some of the physicochemical analysis was iodine value (67.007 /100 gram of KOH), saponification value (78.94 KOH/ gram), acid value (9.54 mg), relative density (0.9797), and free fatty acid (4.797%). The analysis of the seed oil is performed by FTIR and has allowed us to identify 3 functional groups in the oil of daucus carota of cultivated seeds in Zaria. These chemical compositions are carbonyl group for a cyclic 5-membered ring (C=O), methylene group (C-H), and aromatic alkenes (C=C). From the analysis of the chemical composition, it can be concluded that the active composite of cultivated carrot seed oil are C=O, C=C, and C-H.
