Persei species of Desmodium canadense is cultivated in Ukraine, and since 2012 it has been included into the State Register of plant varieties suitable for dissemination in Ukraine. The given herb has a pronounced anti-viral activity. Since nitrogen-containing compounds, amino acids particularly, participate in formation of the given type of activity, the study of this class of compounds in the mentioned herb is reasonable. The aim of our research was to analyze amino acid composition of Persei species of Desmodium canadense herb. Methods. HPLC method was used for the analysis of amino acid composition in the studied herbal material. Results. In result of research, 22 amino acids and 18 free amino acids were determined in the studied object. The content of the sum of free and bound amino acids in Persei species of Desmodium canadense herb was 5.92%. Asparaginic acid was found in the given herb in the highest concentration. Conclusion. Obtained results of research deepen the information about chemical composition of Persei species of Desmodium canadense herb and can be used for development of the phytotherapeuttic remedy on its basis Author Biographies Денис Олегович Мезенцев, National University of Pharmacy Pushkinska str., 53, Kharkiv, Ukraine, 61002 Department of Chemistry of Natural Compounds
