Abstract. The content and composition of fatty acids of three species
of Achillea L.: A. lingulata W. et K., A. nobilis L. and A. crithmifolia
W. et K. have been analyzed by GC. It was found that unsaturated acids
were prevailing compounds (average U/S was 1.6) and the major components
are: palmitic, linoleic and linolenic acids. The ratio of linolenic and
linoleic acid were: A. lingulata 1.1, A. nobilis 0.8 and A. crithmifolia
0.2.
Key words: Achillea, fatty acids, palmitic, linoleic and linolenic
acids.
MASNE KISELINE IZ BILJAKA RODA ACHILLEA
Određen je sastav masnih kiselina iz nadzemnog dela biljaka roda Achillea
L.: A. lingulata, A. nobilis i A. crithmifolia gasnom hromatografijom.
Palmitinska kiselina je najzastupljenija kod A. lingulata (28.4%) i A.
nobilis (26.1%). Linolna kiselina je dominantna kod A. crithmifolia (41.3%).
Odnos nezasićenih i zasićenih kiselina (U/S) je: 1,6 (A. lingulata), 1,4
(A. nobilis) i 1,8 (A. crithmifolia). Odnos linolenske i linolne kiseline
je: 1,1 (A. lingulata), 0,8 (A. nobilis) i 0,2 (A. crithmifolia).
