Abstract

Introduction: the current interest in soy lecithin motivates to know its composition, before considering its use in a therapeutic regimen. Objective: to chemically characterize the LECISAN in content of phenols, flavonoids and lipids. Materials and methods:through an analytical study, the phospholipids present in the raw material used for the manufacture of the product were identified by thin layer chromatography. The dry matter content was determined in accordance with the procedures referred to by the Official Association of Analytical Chemical Methods of 2019, total phenols by Folin-Ciocalteu reaction and flavonoids by spectrophotometry. Results: the presence of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and lysophosphatidylcholine was identified in the raw material. The total solids content was 7mg/ml and the total quantification of fats and oils was 0.637g/ml. The concentration of total phenols was 9.1635 μg gallic acid/milligrams and flavonoids 35.14 μg quercetin/milligrams. Conclusions: the mean values of the existing concentrations of lipids, phenols and flavonoids are considered reference levels in the LECISAN of these elements in the investigated area and can be considered interesting directions for future research.
