Chamerion angustifolium (L.) Holub -willowherb is a flowering perennial plant of the Onagraceae family, which is very promising in medicine and pharmacy practice. Traditionally, willow herb is used in medicine to treat variety of ailments such as benigne prostate hyperplasia, mouth and skin ulcers, burns. One the most common diagnostic anatomical feature of the Chamerion angustifolium (L.) Holub herb is calcium oxalate crystals- raphides, that are formed from oxalic acid [1-4]. The aim of the experiment: to compare calcium oxalate crystals- raphides, and oxalic acid content in Chamerion angustifolium (L.) Holub herb during different vegetation phases - intensive growing, bud, massive blooming. Experiment tasks: 1. Determine calcium oxalate crystals - raphides, content in stalks and petiole of the willow herb during intensive growing, bud, massive blooming phases. 2. To asses oxalic acid concentration of the Chamerion angustifolium (L.) Holub herb in different vegetation phases (intensive growing, bud, massive blooming). 3. To compare raphides and oxalic acid content during willow herb vegetation. Material and methods: [...].
