Abstract

The peony seed was extracted with Soxhlet extraction method. The obtained oil was esterified by trifluoride-methanol, and the components and their relative contents were analyzed by GC-MS. The results showed that there were 37 compositions. The principal chemical constituents of the oil were linolenic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid. The contents of unsaturated fatty acids was 83.42%, and the oil contained 14.662% saturated fatty acids.
