Efficiency of pre-sowing seeds by UV-C and X-ray exposure on the accumulation of antioxidants in inflorescence of plants of Matricaria chamomilla L. genotypes

Secondary metabolites of the medicinal plants are among main active substances drugs used in medicine. An important place them belongs to phenols and flavonoids, which some constitutive components redox homeostasis maintaining system through animal plant organisms.Radiation exposure is one most powerful factors leading oxidative stress, stimulating formation radioprotectors with antioxidant, anticancer, immunomodulatory anti-inflammatory effects. The data presented previous report indicated differences pharmaceutical raw material yield stimulation various genotypes under UV-C X-ray exposure. This stage study devoted investigation flavonoids as markers secondary metabolism reorganization.The dynamics content eight chamomile control pre-sowing radiation seeds were studied. Groups by effect on antioxidants determined mainly exposure, well groups a significant increase have been identified. A high correlation (R = 0.84) between flavonoid synthesis level these shown. Above average 0.64) insignificant observed variant.
