We have established the qualitative composition and the quantitative content of biologically active substances of the herb of Urtica dioica. Aminoacid composition, monosaccharide set of PSK and PV, the presence of 4 macro- and 18 microelements and their quantitative content have been studied for the first time. Investigating the phenol composition of the herb of Urtica dioica by HPLC has revealed in the raw material alongside with the previously described gallic, coffeic acids, rutine and quercetine the presence of hyperoside, luteolin-7-glycoside, 3,4-isoramnetin diglycoside, chlorogenic acid, aesculetin. We were the first to determine the total content of water-soluble polysaccharides, pectin substances, astringent substances, pigments (carotenoids and chlorophylls),vitamin K1, triterpene compounds and saponins of the triterpene type.
