“…Tricosanoic acid has been reported in some plant species such as Swietenia humilis Zucc 0.33％ 27) , Salvia sclarea 0.23％ 28) . Palmitic, stearic, and tricosanoic acids were the amplest saturated fatty acids in the seeds, whereas linoleic and oleic acids were the most abundant unsaturated fatty acids.…”

Antioxidants help improve the body s antioxidant defense mechanism to regulate, prevent, or treat diseases. The oils included in the seeds of such plants have been applied for bodily strengthening since ancient times. In addition, they have historically been used as a diuretic 6,7) . The profile of bioactive chemicals in oils is influenced by the Rosaceae family s species and variety (genotype) . Linoleic acid (C18:2) was found to be more abundant in pear seed oil fatty acids than in most commonly used culinary oils 8) . Other fatty acids found in pear seeds include palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, and alpha-linolenic acids 8) . P. amygdaliformis have spread in the north and northwest of Kurdistan regional government, Iraq, and consumed nuts. Considering the significant economic value of wild pears, it is critical to understand their nutritional composition. The primary goal of this research was to assess metabolites content linked with health benefits and sensory qualities of leaves and fruits of P. amygdaliformis. This study will provide supportive information to develop pear-based functional foods with better health benefits.
