Abstract

In the presented study; It was aimed to determine the vitamin, phytosterol and fatty acid contents of Salvia hypargeia leaves, which grow endemic in Turkey and are examined among the important species of the Salvia genus. Evaluation of fatty acids using GC; vitamin and phytosterol amounts were determined by HPLC device. Fatty acid contents of Salvia hypargeia leaves are as follows; 14:0 (Myristic acid) 2.91 %, 16:0 (Palmitic acid) 39.66 %; 18:0 (Stearic acid) 6.29 %; 20:0 (Eicosanoic acid) 2.37 %; 15:1 (Pentadecanoic acid) 3.68 %; 16:1 n-7 (Palmitoleic acid) 3.32; 18:1 n-9 (Oleic acid) 7.77 %; 18:2 n-6 (Linoleic acid) 7.18 %; 18:3 n-3 (α-linolenic acid) 24.88 %; 20:3 (Eicosatrienoic acid) was determined as 1.92 %.Vitamin contents such as K1(phylloquinone), alpha-tocopherol, retinol are 1.48±0.03(µg g-1), 23.76±1.57(µg g-1), 0.27±0.05 (µg g-1), respectively phytosterol contents such as ergosterol, stigmasterol and beta sterol were calculated as 60.39±2.15(µg g-1), 17.25±2.06 (µg g-1), 76.31±2.71 (µg g-1). In conclusion; the leaves of the Salvia hypargeia plant are rich in fatty acids, especially 16:0 (Palmitic acid), 18:1 n-9 (Oleic acid) and 18:3 n-3 (α-linolenic acid), as well as alpha-tocopherol content, one of the important antioxidant vitamins. determined. It was determined that the plant's phytosterol content was in good condition.
