分析了在巴西东北地区大量种植的甜瓜杂交种AF-522的种子的近似组成。种子中含有较高比例的脂类（30.8%）和蛋白质（14.9%）。己烷提取的油具有2.06、4.96、111.8和210.6的酸值、过氧化值、碘值和皂化值。分别油的气相色谱分析显示存在从C-6至C-24的24种脂肪酸，除了C-11、C-19、C-21和C-23。单个脂肪酸的浓度从痕量到约64%不等。亚油酸。油酸。棕榈酸和硬脂酸是主要的脂肪酸，分别占总脂肪酸的64.1%、19.4%、9.5%和4.9%，其中不饱和脂肪酸的百分比相对较高（84.4%）。种子蛋白质富含精氨酸、天冬氨酸和谷氨酸，限制性氨基酸为蛋氨酸和赖氨酸。(C)2000爱思唯尔科技有限公司版权所有。
Seeds from a melon hybrid AF-522 largely cultivated in the northeast region of Brazil were analysed for their proximate composition. The seeds contained high percentages of lipids (30.8%) and proteins (14.9%). Hexane-extracted oil had acid, peroxide, iodine and saponification values of 2.06, 4.96, 111.8 and 210.6. respectively. Gas chromatographic analysis of the oil revealed the presence of 24 fatty acids varying from C-6 to C-24 with the exception of C-11, C-19, C-21 and C-23. The concentrations of individual fatty acids varied from trace quantities to about 64%. Linoleic. oleic. palmitic and stearic acids were the principal fatty acids contributing to 64.1, 19.4, 9.5 and 4.9%, respectively, of the total fatty acids which had a relatively high percentage (84.4%) of unsaturated fatty acids. Seed proteins were rich in arginine, aspartic and glutamic acids while limiting amino acids were methionine and lysine. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
