Abstract

Studies about herbal products are increasing every day due to their rich biochemical content. Elaeagnus angustofolia is one of the best known plant species to have a strong biochemical substance spectrum. This work was performed to identify the some biochemical content of Eleagnus angustofol ia. In this study, vitamins A, E, and C, total sugar content, inverted sugar content, cel lulose content, amount of total protein, and fatty acid properties were studied.
