Abstract

In the article the results of Ruta graveolens anatomical structure research are represented.

Microscopic analysis was carried out by the well-known methods using the microscopes LOMO R-1 (Russia) and REICHERT L.4 (Austria).

Anatomical structure of Ruta graveolens is studied and basic diagnostic features are distingiished.

The diagnostic microscopic features of Ruta graveolens raw material are: subepidermal skhizo-lysogenic containers, extemal single-celled glandular hair and intemal idioblasts in the stems; upper epidermis cells of the leaf are with faintly undulating sides; lower epidermis cells are with sinuous sides; stomata are found mostly on the underside of leaves; stoma complexis of the anomotsitis type.

The practical significance of our research is used to work out the project of quality control methods for medicinal herbal raw material – «Herba Rutae».
