Abstract
Sums of neutral and polar lipids with the yield of 8% and 2.6% were obtained from the cones of Cupressus sempervirens L. Verticalis growing in Georgia and the main classes were identified: hydrocarbons, diglycerides, triglycerides, fatty acids and sterol. Some physico-chemical characteristics were detected: specific gravity, refractive index, acidity number, iodine number, saponification ratio. In cypress cone oil saturated, unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids with high percentage of some of them were identified qualitatively and quantitatively by gas chromatographic method. Among them rare 5,11,14,17-eicosatetraenoic acid was found. In the sum of polar lipids phospholipids with a total content of 0.16% were determined qualitatively and quantitatively by spectrophotometric method and some biologically active compounds - carotenoids and amino acids were determined. Based on the study results a new lipid-containing plant resource growing in Georgia is identified, which will find practical application in medicine and cosmetology.
