Abstract

This article provides information on the place of growth, dissemination, botanical description, application in
folk medicine of the plant Chamaenerion latifolium (L.) Th. Fr. et Lange. the genus Chamaenerion Adans. (a synonym for
Epilobium latifolium L. Sp. Pl.) of the family of Onagraceae Lindl., which grows in Kazakhstan. This plant is a renewable raw
material, widely distributed in Kazakhstan.
The above-ground part of the Chamaenerion latifolium collected in the Great Almaty gorge during the flowering phase was
taken as object of the study. On the basis of a literary search, it was found that Chamaenerion latifolium was not studied for
chemical composition. Presence of 20 amino acids was found with the help of an amino acid analyzer, among them glutamine,
proline, aspartate, arginine, alanine were found in the greatest amount; ornithine, oxoproline, methionine - in the least amount.
Using the gas-liquid chromatography method, the presence of 8 higher fatty acids was identified as saturated (24.5-28.1%) -
pentadecane, stearic, myristic, palmitic; monounsaturated (36.2-36.9%) - palmito-oleic, oleic; polyunsaturated (35.0-40.0%) -
linoleic, linolenic. Palmitic, oleic, linoleic are found in large quantities; in the least - pentadecane, palmito-oleic, linolenic in all
organs of the plant.
