Comprehensive Analysis of Elemental and Metabolite Composition in Boraginaceae Species From Türkiye.

Boraginaceae plants, including four endemic species from Türkiye, were analyzed for organic and inorganic compositions using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to explore their nutritional, medicinal, and ecological significance. This study examined 18 species, identifying key elements, such as sodium (87 600.359-118 049.

Exploring Quantitative Biological Major, Trace, and Ultratrace Elements Composition and Qualitative Primary-Secondary Metabolites in Lamiaceae Medicinal Plants from Turkey.

Medicinal plants comprise a spectrum of constituents, encompassing both organic and inorganic elements. Elemental composition of 27 species of medicinal plants of Lamiaceae (including 17 endemic) family grown in Turkey was carried out by ICP-MS. The following elements were determined in analysed samples: Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, As, Rb, Sr, Cs, Ba, La, Ce, Sm, U, Se.
