Seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) presents interesting economic potential due to its well known nutraceutical properties. Seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) is a unique medicinal plant and it is cultivated or naturally grown in various parts of the world, including Romania. Almost all part of plant (fruits, leaves and bark) are uses in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. The leaves of the seabuckthorn plant contain many nutrients and bioactive substances. This paper presents the results of a study regarding the amount of soluble proteins from five seabuckthorn leaves varieties (Auraş, Silvia, Serpenta, Tiberiu and Victoria). The samples were harvested from Fructex Bacău between May and September months, 2009. The result indicates that the soluble protein content of seabuckthorn leaves depending on the varieties investigated and the harvested moment.
