Abstract

The aim of the research is a qualitative and quantitative study of the amino acid composition of Syrian rue (Peganum harmala, Nitrariaceae), growing in the natural conditions of the Azerbaijan Republic. After preliminary confirmation of the presence of amino acids, the plant parts were subjected to in-depth study by ion-exchange chromatography using post-column derivatization on a L-8800 amino acid analyzer (Hitachi, Ltd.). Amino acid analysis of the roots of P. harmala, conducted in the course of this study, was carried out by us for the first time. According to the results of the analysis, 18 amino acids were identified in the studied parts of P.harmala, 8 of which nonessential, 9 are essential and 3 are conditionally essential. The total amount of amino acids for the roots was 7.162%, seeds - 6.096%, and stems - 14.676%. From the individual amino acids in the underground organs of P. harmala, proline predominates (2.149%), and aspartic acid predominates in the stems and seeds (2.698% and 2.394%, respectively). The least detected amino acids are ornithine in the roots and stems (0.007% and 0.020%, respectively) and cysteine in the seeds (0.024%). Hydroxyproline was not found in the stems. At the same time, with the exception of proline, hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine and ornithine in the stems, the remaining amino acids were found to be higher than in other organs.
