用原子吸收光谱仪分别测定了河南温县产怀菊的花、茎、叶中12种无机元素的含量。发现花、茎、叶中均富含Ca、Mg及多种人体必需微量元素，尤其是Mo含量，叶、茎中达100μg／g以上，高出花25倍；Mn含量，叶中为112μg／g，高出花近4倍。

Twelve inorganic elements in the flower,leaf and stem of Dendranthema morifolium Ramat. were detect-ed with the aid of atomic absorption spectroscope. Ca and Mg were found abundant with a number of trace e1-ements essential for human body. M0 in the leaf and stem amounted to 100 μg/g,25 times than that present in the flower. Elements Mn,Cr and Co were more rich in the leaf than in other parts of the plant.
