<p><strong>ABSTRAK.</strong> <em>Ocimum gratissimum</em> L. atau kemangi hutan merupakan salah satu jenis tanaman yang banyak dimanfaatkan dalam bidang pengobatan tradisional. Biji dari tanaman kemangi hutan diduga mengandung senyawa aktif antioksidan berupa skualena yang banyak digunakan dalam industri farmasi. Sumber utama senyawa skualena adalah minyak hati ikan hiu, kenyataan ini memperkuat alasan perburuan ikan hiu semakin marak. Skualen nabati yang bisa ditemukan pada beberapa jenis tumbuhan menjadi salah satu alternatif untuk mengurangi penggunaan skualena dari minyak hati ikan hiu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan hasil rendemen, sifat fisiko-kimia serta menganalisa komponen penyusun minyak biji kemangi hutan dengan metode <em>Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry</em> (GC-MS). Tahapan penelitian meliputi ekstraksi minyak biji kemangi hutan menggunakan alat soxhlet dengan pelarut heksana dilanjutkan dengan proses pemurnian yang meliputi <em>degumming</em> dan netralisasi. Tahap terakhir berupa analisa GCMS minyak hasil ekstraksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rendemen minyak biji kemangi hutan setelah pemurnian diperoleh sebesar 5,106 ± 0,10%, berwarna kuning pucat berbau khas kemangi hutan, kadar air minyak 0,06%; massa jenis minyak 0,84 g/ml; bilangan asam 0,416 ± 0 mg KOH/g minyak; bilangan peroksida 0,028 ± 0 meq O<sub>2</sub>/g minyak; dan bilangan penyabunan 219,648 ± 2,608 mg KOH/g. Sifat fisikokimia tersebut telah memenuhi kriteria SNI. Hasil analisis GC-MS menunjukkan bahwa minyak biji kemangi hutan didominasi oleh empat komponen utama yaitu skualena (58,85%), asam propanedioat (16,69%), asam palmitat (14,91%), dan metil heksanoat (9,55%). Pemurnian minyak biji kemangi hutan meningkatkan kandungan skualena dari 1,07% menjadi 58,85%. </p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;" lang="IN">ABSTRACT. </span><span class="hps"><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;" lang="IN">The Effect of Purification on The Quality and Content of Forest Basil Seed Oil (<em>Ocimum gratissimum</em> L.). </span></span></strong><span class="hps"><em><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="IN">O. gratissimum</span></em><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="IN"> L. or </span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="EN-US">f</span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="IN">orest </span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="EN-US">b</span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'MS Mincho'; mso-ansi-language: IN; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;" lang="IN">asil is a plant that is widely used in traditional medicine.
