Study Of Chemical Composition Of The Polygonum alpestre Flowers

For the first time quantitative and qualitative composition of biologically active and nutritional
substances of the flowers of Polygonum alpestre was investigated. It has been established that the
flower contains 2.3% total sugar, 0.87% organic acid, 1.2% pectin, 9.4% vaccine, 2.34% flavonoids,
0.58% anthocyanins, 0.8% catechine, 2.3 mg of carotenoids, 358 mg of vitamin C. Glucose, arabinose,
galactose was found in the sugar mass, malic and oxalic acid in organic acid mass, quercetine,
kaempferol, myricetin derivatives, anthocyanins - sianidin and delfinidin derivatives, carotenoids - -
karotin, zeaksanthin, kriptoksantin, catechins- epigallocatechin, gallocatechin, epigallocatechingallate
in the flavonoids mass. It has been established that the flowers of Polygonum alpestre can be used as a
source of raw material to get medicine means.
