The oil of the dried pulps of Livistona decipiens and L. chinensis palm fruits have been studied for the first time by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for their unsaponifiable matter (USM) and fatty acid composition (FAME). The antihyperlipidemic and anti-ulcer activities for both oils were also assayed. The principal fatty acid of L. decipiens pulp oil was oleic acid (53.4 %) and of L. chinensis pulp oil palmitic acid (47.4 %). In relation to anti-hyperlipidemic properties, the pulp oil of L. decipiens presented a better profile than that of L. chinensis, in comparison with the reference standard (simvastatin). In addition, both pulp oils showed high anti-ulcer activity using an indomethacin-induced ulceration technique in rat stomach. The relationship between the anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-ulcer and chemical composition of the pulp oils is also discussed.
