Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.), is an annual herb that belongs to the umbel family (Apiaceae), and Known locally in Sudan as Kazbra. It displays broad adaptation as a crop around the world, growing well under many different types of soil and weather conditions, even at extreme latitudes and elevations. Coriander has long been cultivated in the Mediterranean region, southern Europe, Asia Minor and the Caucasus. It is found wild in Egypt and the Sudan. In recent years; principal commercial coriander producers included Russia, India, Morocco, Pakistan, Iran, Egypt, Guatemala, Mexico, Argentina and Sudan. Coriander seeds Contents: Coriander seed oil is included among the 20 major essential oils in the world market and its commercial value depends on its physical properties, chemical composition, and aroma .The essential-oil content of the dried fruits varies from very low (0.03%) to a maximum report of 2.7% . Linalool is the main volatile compound in seeds, typically constituting more than 50% of the total essential oil. Fatty acids are also important components of coriander seeds; the main fatty acids detected in coriander, in decreasing order, are petroselenic, linoleic, palmitic, and stearic acids.Furthermore, cleavage of the unusual double bond in petroselenic acid leads to the production of lauric acid, to obtain surfactants and edible products, and adipic acid for nylon synthesis. Residues from distillation can be used for livestock feed, and the fatty acids also have potential uses as lubricants.
