Abstract

Objective: Arum L. is the largest genus of Aroids. Tubers, leaves, and fruits of Arum italicum Mill. (Araceae) are used as a traditional medicine in the treatment of hemorrhoids and in preparing local dishes in Turkey. In this study, the fatty acid contents of the wild and cultivated seed oils of A. italicum Mill. species from the Kırklareli region in Turkey were determined and compared by the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method. Materials and Methods: Seed oils were obtained via petroleum ether extraction. Fatty acid methyl esters were prepared with boron trifluoride/methanol derivatization and analyzed with TC WAX capillary gas chromatographic column. Results: The amount of 13-phenyl tridecanoic acid, which is the specific fatty acid of Arum italicum Mill. species, was found to be similar in both samples. In addition, 2-hydroxy palmitic acid was identified for the first time in the same species. Conclusion: This is the first report on the presence of the 2-hydroxy palmitic acid content of Arum italicum Mill. seeds from Turkey.
