Abstract
|
|
|
The unossified pilose antler of Cervus cornu parvum is one of the valuable crude drugs in oriental medicine and has been used for the treatment of neurosis, impotence, seminal emission and premature ejaculation. Our studies were tried to evaluate chemical components such as minerals, fatty acids and amino acids of antler and old antler. In antler and old antler Ca content was higher than any other minerals and followed by Na and K. Predominant fatty acid was docosahexaenoic acid(43.73%) in antler. Among 17 amino acids glycine was the most abundant in antler. But 7 kinds of amino acids including cysteine were not detected in old antler.
