文(wen)冠(guan)(guan)果(guo)(guo)是我國北方地區特有的生(sheng)物(wu)質(zhi)能源油料(liao)樹種(zhong),果(guo)(guo)油含(han)有大量的不飽和(he)脂肪酸(suan)(suan),食(shi)用(yong)可(ke)預防和(he)治(zhi)(zhi)療動脈硬化癥,經過加工后(hou)可(ke)制成(cheng)亞油酸(suan)(suan)丸、益壽寧等(deng)藥物(wu),對(dui)治(zhi)(zhi)療高血(xue)脂、高血(xue)壓(ya)、血(xue)管硬化和(he)慢(man)性肝炎均有明顯(xian)的保健和(he)治(zhi)(zhi)療作(zuo)用(yong)。2007年,靖(jing)遠縣林業(ye)局(ju)委托(tuo)甘肅省農(nong)(nong)業(ye)科學院農(nong)(nong)業(ye)測(ce)試中心對(dui)靖(jing)遠文(wen)冠(guan)(guan)果(guo)(guo)籽實進行了全(quan)面(mian)檢測(ce),結果(guo)(guo)顯(xian)示,文(wen)冠(guan)(guan)果(guo)(guo)種(zhong)仁(ren)含(han)油率干(gan)基為(wei)632.3克(ke)/公斤(jin),粗蛋白干(gan)基為(wei)237.3克(ke)/公斤(jin),棕櫚酸(suan)(suan)5.92%,硬脂酸(suan)(suan)2.01%,油酸(suan)(suan)31.78%,亞油酸(suan)(suan)44.04%,亞麻酸(suan)(suan)1.54%,二十碳烯酸(suan)(suan)0.42%,花(hua)生(sheng)酸(suan)(suan)7.76%,果(guo)(guo)仁(ren)利(li)用(yong)率大,亞油酸(suan)(suan)含(han)量高。
