Abstract

Although each part of Trichosanthes kirilowii is frequently used as medicinal herbs, study on the chemical composition is not sufficient. It was found that sarcocarp consists of 70% of carbohydrate, 13% of crude protein, 5% of crude fat, 6% of crude fiber and 6% of crude ash; seed consists of 62.59% of carbohydrate, 12.75% of crude protein, 14.80% of crude fat, 6.50% of crude fiber and 3.36% of crude ash; and root consists of 89.40% of carbohydrate, 4.10% of crude protein, 0.50% of crude fat, 3.50% of crude fiber and 2.50% of crude ash. Sarcocarp and seed contain fifteen kinds of amino acids such as Asp, Ser, Glu, Gly, His, Arg, Thr, Ala, Pro, Try, Cys, Met, Val, Leu, and Phe. Sarcocarp contain large quantities of phenylalanine and glycine and seed does not contain leucine but lysine. The mineral contents in Trichoxanthes kirilowii are 0.55% Ca, 0.91% Mg, 10.29% Na, and 0.17% K.

하늘타리는 한약재로 많이 사용되지만 이들의 일반성분에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 한약재로 사용되는 각 부위 중의 일반성분을 조사한 결과 괄루실의 경우 탄수화물 70%, 조단백질이 13%, 조지방 5%, 조섬유소 6%, 조회분 6%의 함량을 나타냈다. 또한 괄루인은 탄수화물 62.59%, 조단백질이 12.75%, 조지방 14.80%, 조섬유소 6.5%, 조회분 3.36%의 함량을 나타냈고 괄루근은 탄수화물 89.40%, 조단백질이 4.10%, 조지방 0.50%, 조섬유소 3.5%, 조회분 2.50%의 함량을 나타내었다. 괄루실과 괄루인은 15종류의 아미노산을 함유하고 있으며, 그중 괄루실에는 폐닐알라닌과 글리신이 많은 함량을 나타내었다. 괄루인에는 루신이 없는 대신 라이신이 검출되었으며, 괄루근에서는 14종의 아미노산이 검출되었다.
