| Abstract | ||
| Melia azedarach is one from the most important medicinal plants because it contains many organic and inorganic compounds of medical and economic benefit. Plant trees are widely planted in Iraq, especially in Mosul city on side roads as shade plants in addition to their aesthetic value. The objective of this study, which is a continuation of earlier research on the identification of organic and inorganic compounds in plants, was to determine the total protein content and the proportion and quantity of amino acids in the leaves by using the keldahl method and the amino acid analysis device were employed. The results demonstrated that the protein content in 5 grams leaves was 13.2% also showed the protein contains 12 amino acids and that amino acids with nonpolar side chains were most abundant among all other amino acids, Leucine, on the other hand, was the least abundant amino acid (79.8 μg/g), whereas glutamic acid was the most abundant (1025.4 μg/g) among the identified amino acids. | ||
