Bieb. galbuli (female cones) collected from &quot;Izgoraloto Gyune&quot; Reserve in Krichim, Bulgaria. The moisture (36.88%), abs. weight 693.96 g\/1000 pcs., and the ash content (10.57%) of ripe galbuli were determined. Lipid fraction (9.12%), cellulose (13.54%), protein (13.64%), and total carbohydrates (31.20%) were evaluated in the ripe galbuli. It was found that the ripe galbuli contained glucose (4.00%) and fructose (4.25%), but disaccharide sucrose was not identified. The main macro elements presented in the sample were K (8390.00 mg\/kg), Ca (4596.00 g\/kg), Mg (837.72 mg\/kg), followed by Na (7.69 mg\/kg); while the detected microelements consisted of Zn (8.51 mg\/kg), Cu (4.66 mg\/kg), Mn (3.65 mg\/kg), Fe (3.26 mg\/kg), Cr (3.00 mg\/kg), Cd (&lt; 0.1 mg\/kg), and Pb (0.01 mg\/kg).<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1]\tR.
