Quantitative analysis of fatty acids and monosaccharides composition in Chamerion angustifolium L. by GC/MS method

Chamaenerion angustifolium L. widely known as fireweed, has significant natural resources in Ukraine. It long been used folk medicine a sedative, analgesic, astringent, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antisclerotic, wound healing, and diaphoretic agent. These properties are the result of availability many groups biologically active compounds such flavonoids, hydroxycinnamic acids, tannins, ascorbic acid, polyphenols, macro- microelements. The aim study was to determine content fatty acids monosaccharides herb. qualitative composition quantitative these were determined using GC/MS method. results analysis showed that herb fireweed monosaccharides, D-ribose, D-arabinose, D-mannose, D-glucose, D-galactose, Myo-inositol. D-glucose presented raw materials highest amount, it is 11.23 mg/kg. Among mono-, polyunsaturated saturated determined. total 53.19%, monounsaturated – 4.92%, 41.89%. Linolenic, palmitic, linoleic dominated among twelve their 1.82 mg/kg, 1.74 1.10 mg/g.
