Tıbbi Adaçayı ve Oğul Otu Dekoksiyonlarının Fitokimyasalları ve Antioksidan Aktiviteleri Üzerine Örnek Miktarı ve Dekoksiyon Süresinin Etkisi

In this study, decoctions (herbal tea) of sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and lemon balm (Melissa L), two the important medicinal plants, were analysed for antioxidant activity, antioxidants, minerals (K, Na, Mg, Ca, Fe, Ba, Ag Ga) determined in each dry leaves as well by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The activities evaluated scavenging against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) radicals, varied from 19.4 to 109.1 mg trolox equivalent (TE) cup-1 DPPH 35.0 168.0 ascorbic acid (AAE) H2O2. highest activity antioxidants such total phenolic, flavonoid flavanol contents found decoction balm. most efficiently observed decoctions. study also showed that best sample amount terms was 3 g both species, but time statistically insignificant 10 min more effective As a result, it tried determine appropriate species according parameters.
