Abstract: The results of this study showed that in drone body dry powder, the contents of total protein, fats and ash are 57.60 %, 5.21 % and 3.68 % respectively. The content of free amino acids is 6.02 mg/g. In accordance with the data of twelve elements determined by ICP-AES, the content of potassium is 3480 μg/g, which is the highest, and the second is phosphorus with content of 2957.2 μg/g, successively followed by magnesium (428.8 μg/g), calcium (302.6 μg/g), iron (106.18 μg/g), zinc (57 μg/g), copper (15.34 μg/g) and manganese (6.281 μg/g). Selenium (0.312 μg/g) and cobalt (0.063 μg/g), which have strong physiological functions, are examined in drone body. 12 Kinds of fatty acids are identified from drone body, and the content of saturated fatty acids is more than 50 % of total fatty acids.The content of total amino acids is 591.25 mg/g dry matter. The content of total essential amino acids and histidine is 243.23 mg/g dry matter. Amino acids score of drone body protein is 100 points, content of whose each essential amino acid is more than FAO/WHO standard.
