Abstract
The main components in Alhagi graecorum plant and leaves were determined as follows: Alhagi graecorum plant: Moisture 72%, protein 4.8%, carbohydrate 9.75%, fat 7.55% and total ash 5.9%, Leaves: Moisture 73.66% protein 5.64%, carbohydrate 6.7%. fat 6% and total ash 8%. The chemical detection showed that it contain the following components: Glycosides Tannins Resins,Flavones and Terpens The aqueous extract was acidic with pH of 5.0. It was found that the aqueous extract of the plant Alhagi graecorum contains the following mineral element (mg/ml): Magnesium (15), Potassium (8,5), Phosphorus (7,5), Calcium (6.5). Sodium(5). Iron(0,85), Zinc(0,04), Manganese(0,025), Copper(0,001) and Cadmium (0,001).
