Abstract

The aim of the work was to establish a qualitative and to determine the quantitave content of fatty acids of Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz variety Slavutych.

Materials and Methods. Herb and seeds of the Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz were selected as the object of the study. Raw material was grown and harvested in the territory of Zaporizhzhia region in the summer of 2018. 

The study of the chemical composition of Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz was carried out using gas chromatograph Agilent 7890B GC System with mass spectrometric detector Agilent 5977 BGC/MSD and chromatographic column DB-5ms.

Results and Discussion. Eleven fatty acids were identified of raw material of Camelina sativa: in herb – five, in seeds – eleven. The total amount of fatty acids in Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz herb is 2.04%, and in seeds - 40.32%. The amount of unsaturated fatty acids (35.20%) in Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz herb is almost a third of the total content dominated by α-linolenic acid (24.86%). At the same time, the amount of unsaturated fatty acids of C. sativa seeds (86.94%) significantly exceeds the amount of saturated acids with the dominance of α-linolenic (161.03 mg/g, 39.95% of the total content of all identified fatty acids), paullinic (81.20 mg/g, 20.15%) and linoleic (73.30 mg/g, 18.19%) acids.

Conclusions. On the basis of the conducted phytochemical research, the quantitative content of fatty acids of herb and seeds of the Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz variety Slavutych was identified and established. The obtained results allow to recommend Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz seeds as a plant source of polyunsaturated fatty acids in order to create effective domestic drugs based on it.
