Background and Objectives Iron‐deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common form of nutritional anemia in both developed and developing countries. We aimed to evaluate the germination impact on the nutritional profile of quinoa seeds and the antianemic potentials of quinoa fortified phytogenic diet in treatment of iron‐deficiency anemia‐induced albino rats. Findings The results revealed that quinoa seeds are considered a good source of fiber, protein (43.08 and 30.62% of DV), and vitamin C (threefold of daily requirement). Germination of the seeds increased iron, calcium, and zinc contents by 39.43, 49.04, and 20.25%, vitamin C and carotenoids by 32.17 and 26.02%, respectively, and decreased antinutritional factors saponin, phytic acid, and tannins by 59.60, 50.0, and 11.32%, respectively. The biological assay indicated that fortification with 10% quinoa sprouts (GII6) can be recommended as the best treatment to restore body weight, organs weights, serum profile (protein, ferritin, iron, and zinc), and blood cell counts (RBCs, WBCs, Hb, and platelets), as reflected in red cell indices (Hct, MCV, MCH, and MCHC) of IDA induced rats being at optimum levels, which were comparable to the healthy rats group (GI). Conclusion Increased antioxidants, vitamins, minerals content, and bioavailability of nutritional compounds due to decreased antinutritional factors content in the germinated sprouts resulted in antianemic health potentials in treated rats. Significance and Novelty Evidence indicates that germinated quinoa seeds are superior in nutrients compared to the ungerminated seeds due to the activation of endogenous enzymes that degrade antinutritional factors, elevate mineral bioavailability and antioxidant properties.

Currently, the arsenal of the pharmaceutical market has significantly expanded with highly effective drugs of plant origin. More than 1000 essential-oil-bearing plants grow in the flora of Kazakhstan. Of great interest are some species from the families Lamiaceae, Apiaceae, Asteraceae, which have not been studied at all before, or for which there is only brief information about the chemical composition and biological properties. In this respect, the Lamiaceae L. family, which is one of the leading in the flora of Kazakhstan, is of interest. So, on the territory of the republic in this family, there are 233 species, united in 45 genera. Among them, the most famous are plants of the genus Dracocephalum, which are a rich and very common source of essential oils. The purpose of our study - to analyze the anatomical parameters of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. and Dracocephalum nutans L. and to reveal the diagnostic features of plants at the microscopic level. Materials And Methods. The object of the study was the aerial parts (leaves, inflorescences and stems) of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. and Dracocephalum nutans L.In the study of the aerial organs of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. and Dracocephalum nutans L., dry samples of raw materials were softened in a mixture of glycerin-alcohol-distilled water in a ratio 1:1:1 (Strauss-Fleming mixture). Surface preparations and sections were made manually. The slides were photographed using Altami Studio software; the photographs were processed using Paint 10.0. When describing the anatomical structure, the principles set forth in the works of V.N. Vekhova, L.I. Results and Discussion. Preliminary pharmacognostic investigation of vegetative material was done and diagnostic signs were identified. The detail microscopy revealed the presence of one type of trichrome on leaves’ epidermis; essential oil glandular. Type of mesophyll, structure of trichromes; form and location of epidermal cells, the presence of rare simple trichomes along the edge are discovered. Conclusion. As a results of the anatomical features of the raw material were established, among them the shape and structure of epidermal cells of the leaf and stem, the shape and location of essential oil glands and trichomes, the structure of the leaf and stem on the cross section are diagnostic features of the raw material of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. and Dracocephalum nutans L.
