Fatty Acid Composition, Vitamin A, and Vitamin E Content of Sphaerophysa kotschyana

Sphaerophysa kotschyana, which is endemic to Central Anatolia, isincluded in the list of plants that must be absolute protected by theBern Convention. S. kotschyana is important in terms of functionalcompounds because of being resistant to salty soil conditions. In thisstudy, fatty acid components, vitamin A and vitamin E content wereanalysed in leaf and fruit of S. kotschyana. Vitamin A content wasfound to be 16.8 mg/kg DW herba and 15.85 mg/kg DW fruit. VitaminE content in the herba was observed to be 84.1 mg/kg DW and in thefruit 70.6 mg/kg DW. The main component fatty acids weredetermined as linoleic acid (72.41%) and palmitic acid (18.20%) in fruitand; oleic acid (59.12%) and stearic acid (13.42%) in the herba.

Sphaerophysa kotschyana Bitkisinin Yağ Asidi Kompozisyonu, A Vitamini ve E Vitamini İçeriği

İç Anadolu'ya özgü olan Sphaerophysa kotschyana, Bern Sözleşmesi ile mutlak korunması gereken bitkiler listesine dahil edilmiştir. S. kotschyana tuzlu toprak şartlarına dayanıklı olmasından dolayı fonksiyonel bileşikler açısından önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, S. kotschyana bitkisinden elde edilen ekstrelerden yağ asidi bileşenleri, A vitamini ve E vitamini içeriği değerlendirildi. A vitamini içeriği yaprak-gövde de 16.8 mg / kg kuru bitki ve meyvede 15.85 mg / kg kuru bitki olarak bulunmuştur. Yaprak-gövdede ki E vitamini içeriğinin 84.1 mg / kg kuru bitki ve meyvede 70.6 mg / kg kuru bitki olduğu gözlendi. Ana bileşen yağ asitleri meyvede linoleik asit (% 72.41) ve palmitik asit (% 18.20); yaprak-gövdede ise oleik asit (% 59.12) ve stearik asit (% 13.42) olarak belirlenmiştir.
