Analysis of Nutritional Constituents of Wild Corylus heterophylla in Fanjingshan
[Objective]In order to explore the main nutrition and functional components of Fanjingshan wild Corylus heterophylla,and to reveal the nutritional value of Fanjingshan wild hazelnut.[Method]The contents of fat,protein,carbohydrate,starch,vitamin,fatty acid,amino acid and other components were determined by the relevant methods in the national food safety standards.[Result]The fat content of Fanjingshan wild Corylus heterophylla was higher(57.40%),followed by protein content(21.50%)and carbohydrate content(12.90%);the content of unsatu-rated fatty acids was the highest,accounting for 75.80%of the total fatty acids;among the eight elements,the content of potassium was the high-est,and the content of manganese was the highest;Vitamin B is rich,the highest content of VE is 163 mg/kg;the essential amino acids accoun-ted for 24.49%of the total amino acids,and the essential amino acids/non-essential amino acids(NEAA)was 0.32,lower than the reference value proposed by FAO/WHO;the content of medicinal amino acids is rich,9 kinds of medicinal amino acids total 16.22%,accounting for 74.68%of the total amino acids;the content of umami and sweet amino acids accounted for 62.06%of the flavoured amino acids,and the RCT value of Glu in umami amino acids was 1 200,which contributed the most to the flavor.[Conclusion]The wild hazelnut in Fanjingshan is a kind of high quality functional medicinal and edible plant resources,which has a broad development prospect.
