Abstract In order to research and exploit Hovenia seed resource,the main nutritional ingredients and physicochemical parameter of Hovenia seed were analyzed.The results showed that the three-dimensional sizes of hovenia seeds was 4.05 mm×3.66 mm×1.82 mm,thousand seeds weight was 16.8 g,rate of kernel contents was 45.66% and bulk density was 765.1 g/L;main components of hovenia seeds were as follows:crude fibre 53.45%,crude protein 15.79%,carbohydrate 10.95%,crude fat 8.03% and ash 2.08%.Among amino acids,essential amino acids accounted for 29.1%;among ash,constant elements(potassium,magnesium,calcium,sodium) accounted for 98.7%,trace elements(iron,manganese,copper,zinc) accounted for 1.3%.Contents of linolenic acid,oleic acid and linoleic acid in oil of hovenia seeds was high,and the relative content of linolenic acid was 45.56%.
