ANALYSIS OF CONTENTS OF SUGARS AND HEALTH-PROMOTING SUBSTANCES IN THE SAP OF SYCAMORE MAPLE ACER PSEUDOPLATANUS L. IN THE NOTEĆ FOREST

Abstract

The growing popularity of tree sap based products stems from the presumed health-promoting properties of this raw material. Moreover, the maple syrup market, dominated by Canada, is recording a steady increase in the size and value of production. The study attempted to expand knowledge regarding contents of sugars and health-promoting substances in the sap of sycamore maple Acer pseudoplatanus L. growing in the Promotional Forest Complex “Noteć Forest”. Sap was collected in the period 5–8.03.2022 and analyses were conducted for individual compounds in the following groups: sugars, antioxidants, preservatives, and mineral compounds. Low contents of sugars and health-promoting substances were found, indicating that the study area may not be suitable for the economic use of sycamore sap. In addition, an elevated level of manganese was recorded, which may have negative effects on human health with sycamore sap regular consumption.

Keywords: sugars, F-AAS, HPLC, sycamore, preservatives, antioxidants, health-promoting substances, mineral compounds
