Chemical analyses have been made of a number of plant species in order to assess their suitability as renewable sources of hydrocarbon-like photosynthetic products. Yields of rubber and wax, glycerides, isoprenoids, and other terpenoids were estimated. Individual sterols were identified in latex from some species.
为了评估某些植物物种作为类碳氢化合物光合产物可再生资源的适宜性,对它们进行了化学分析。对橡胶和蜡、甘油酯、类异戊二烯和其他萜烯的产量进行了估算。从一些物种的乳胶中鉴定出了个别甾醇。
