盐角草种子的油脂成分与营养评价 . Study on the Lipid Components and Nutrition of Salicornia europaea L. Seeds

Abstract

Salicornia europaea L.is a species of annual herbaceous plant growing in lackshores of salt lakes,swamplands,wetlands and other salty environment.In this paper,the lipid components of Salicornia europaea L.seeds are analyzed and compared with that of oil plants,cereals,forage grasses and Suaeda salsa(L.) Pall.growing in saline or alkaline land.The results reveal that the oil content of Salicornia europaea L.seeds is not so high,but the acid value and saponification value of the oil in Salicornia europaea L.seeds are low and the iodine value is high,and the lipa contains richly vitamin E.Moreover,the proportion of fatty acid indispensable to human body in gross fatty acid is high,the contents of amino acids indispensable to human body are higher than the standards recommended by FAO and WHO,and also higher than that of familiar staple food and Medicago sativa.Therefore,Salicornia europaea L.has a high value in assorted forage and its oil can possibly used as the health protection oil for people.However,it is suggested to carry out the experiment of raising animals with Salicornia europaea L.and the toxicity test before using it so as to further confirm its nutritional value.
