YUE Xiao-hua, XUE Hui-qing, GAO Li, et al. Analysis on Amino Acids and Trace Elements of Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae from Shanxi Anze[J]. Chinese journal of experimental traditional medical formulae, 2014, 20(4): 81-83. DOI: 10.11653/syfj2014040081.
Objective: To determine and compare the amino acid and trace elements in Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae from Shanxi Anze and discuss the nutritional composition
provide the reference evidence for the development and utilization of Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae. Method: The amino acid components and trace elements (Ca
Fe
Zn
Cu and Pb) were analyzed by amino acid analyzer and atomic absorption spectrometry
respectively. Result: Seventeen amino acids were contained in Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae
the total amino acid content was 6.54% and 5.27%
the essential amino acids content was 2.57% and 2.10%
respectively.Trace elements such as Ca
Fe and Zn
etc
were determined in Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae
the content of Ca was up to 2 380
3 408 μg·g-1
the content of Fe was 188
298 μg·g-1
Pb was lower than 5 μg·g-1
respectively. Conclusion: There are abundant amino acids compositions and trace elements in Green Fructus Forsythiae and Grown Fructus Forsythiae from Shanxi Anze
they could be used as raw materials of health products and drugs.The amino acids content of the Green Fructus Forsythiae is more than the Grown Fructus Forsythiae
the trace elements content of the Grown Fructus Forsythiae is more than the Green Fructus Forsythiae.
