Abstract
Results of biochemical research of two Siberian species of genus Nitraria L. - N. schoberi L. and N. sibirica Pall. are
presented. It is established that leaves and fruits of plants contain a rich complex of biologically active substances:
fl avonols, tannins, catechins, anthocyans, pectin substances, sugars and possess antioxidative activity. Almost on all
biochemical indices leaves and fruits N. sibirica surpass in N. schoberi. Both species represent defi nite interest for
medical and food industry. Researches of biologically active substances N. schoberi and N. sibirica growing in Siberia
are spent for the fi rst time.
