This paper presents the results of microscopic analysis of a
perspective medicinal plant Helianthus tuberosus used for the treatment of
diabetes mellitus. The study was conducted to identify specific
morphological and structural characteristics of this plant, which may have a
positive impact on the efficacy and safety of its use for medical purposes.
Different types of plant material were used in the research: fresh plants, dried
plant material and preserved plant material. For preservation of the latter, a
special mixture consisting of ethyl alcohol, glycerol and distilled water in
equal volumes was used. Anatomical study of the structure and structure of
plants was carried out using several methods: to study the structure of the
epidermis, surface samples were prepared, which allowed us to get a detailed
idea of the cellular composition and location of the epidermis on the surface
of leaves, stems and roots of plants; for a deeper study of the internal
structure of plants, transverse sections were made, which were further
investigated. The results of the study suggest the high potential of this plant
as a basis for the development of safe and effective phytopreparations.
