[STUDY OF LIPIDS IN SEEDS OF AMARANTHUS BLITOIDES S. WATS., GROWING IN GEORGIA].

Lipid composition of the seeds of Amaranthus blitoides S. Wats. was analyzed. Identification of free fatty acids was carried out by HPLC analysis on the apparatus PTG-1 with the refractive detector R-401 and bondapak C18 reverse phase column. Eluent 1 - methanol-water (1:2); eluent 2 - tetrahydrofuran-acetonitrile-water (5:7:9)+0.1% acetic acid solution. The results were processed using the ОASIS-740 software. Free fatty acids: lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linolenic, arachidic, begenic and non-idenfied acid, presumably C24:0 were detected in the oil of Amaranthus seeds. Seven phospholipids: lisophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatilcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, N-acilisophosphatidylethanolamine, N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine and one non-identified compound were isolated and identified from the polar fraction.
