Склад ліпідів у насінні гіркокаштана звичайного, клена гостролистого та дуба звичайного в умовах дніпропетровського регіону
Composition of lipids in chestnut, maple and oak seeds in conditions of the Dnipropetrovsk city

Summary/Abstract: Parameters of lipids metabolism such as a level of total lipids and their composition, and composition of free fatty acids in the chestnut, maple and oak seeds from several polluted sites of Dnipropetrovsk were investigated. The decrease of the content of total lipids in chestnut and maple seeds and increase in the oak seeds under conditions of industrial pollution have been found. The reduction of free fatty acids fraction in seeds of all studied trees is recorded. The revealed changes in the content of total lipids and their composition in trees’ seeds may reflect the adaptation possibilities to anthropogenic pollution in industrial region.
