%X seeds of berberis heterophylla and berberis buxifolia were analyzed for lipids, fatty acids and sterols contents. the lipids in seeds contained a relatively large proportion of unsaturated fatty acids, with linolenic, linoleic and oleic being predominant. ¦Â-sitosterol was the major sterol in both species, followed by stigmasta-5,24(28)-dien-3 ¦Â-ol and campesterol. the seeds of b. heterophylla were the richest in total lipid content.
