| dc.description.abstract | In this study, a proximate analysis and determination of the mineral content of Abies x borisii-regis cones from Bulgaria were carried out in connection with their potential use in the pharmaceutical industry. A. x borisii-regis cones showed to be rich in carbohydrates (79.06 g 100-1 g-1 dw), which were the most abundant macronutrients. The proteins in the A. x borisii-regis cones averaged 11.19 g 100-1 g-1 dw. The total energy content in the A. x borisii-regis cones is relatively high 1665.10 g-1 dw. The obtained data on the content of trace elements in the cones of A. x borisiiregis show the highest content of Fe (137.03 mg kg-1), followed by Mn (95.7 mg kg-1) and Zn (70.06 mg kg-1). The results of the proximate analysis of the cones of Tsar Boris fir, as well as the total content of trace elements, suggest the possibility of their direct use in pharmaceuticals and dietetics. | |
