Currently, there is a tendency to expand the range of domestic phytopreparations. It 
is known that medicinal plant raw materials with sufficient pharmacological activity 
have less toxicity and allergenicity. 
Asteraceae
is one of the largest families of dicotyledonous plants. A variety of 
biologically active substances are represented in various species of 
Asteraceae
. The 
study of the possibility of complex use of medicinal plant raw materials and species that 
are systematically close to the official ones, having a sufficient raw material base, will 
contribute to increasing the range of medicines. However, a number of plants in 
Kazakhstan are yet to be researched. Amino acids are the structure forming units of a 
protein molecule. Approximately 300 of amino acids are found in nature with only 20 of 
them belong to protein amino acids or proteinogenic amines. 
The article presents the results of the amino and fatty acid analysis of the aerial parts 
of 
Zinnia elegans
and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
, of 
Asteraceae
family, collected 
during the fruiting period in September 2021 in the East Kazakhstan region. The 
relevance of the work lies in the extraction of biologically active substances and the 
production of medicines from plants growing in East Kazakhstan. The study determined 
the volumetric composition of various amino and fatty acids in the aerial part of 
Zinnia 
elegans
and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
. According to the results of the study, in the 
aerial part, in terms of the amount of nutrients from amino acids, the following 
dominate: glutamic (
Zinnia elegans
(2800 mg/100 g) and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
(2712 mg/100 g)) and asparagic acids 
Zinnia elegans
(1210 mg/100 g) and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
(1120 mg/100 g); from fatty acid – oleic acid 
Zinnia 
elegans
(47,1 %) and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
(46,8 %). 
The aerial part has been determined to be the source of many essential compounds. 
By using paper chromatography from plants were detected amino acids, phenolic acids, 
flavonoids and carbohydrates. The results of the study showed that the plants of two 
species 
Zinnia elegans
and 
Symphyotrichum novi-belgii
have a sufficient content of 
biologically active substances, which can in the future expand the range of effective 
domestic herbal medicines available in medicine and agriculture of the Republic of 
Kazakhstan.
