The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant and
antiradical activity of the Rhabdosciadium anatolyi (R. anatolyi)
flowers, an endemic plant grown in the Eastern Anatolia Region of
Turkey, by determining the level of vitamins E and C, mineral (Ca,
Na, Mg, P, K), and trace elements (Mn, Zn, Cu, Fe, V, Cr, Mo, Co, Sr,
Pb, Ti, Tl, Sn, Cd, As). Within the scope of the study, mineral and
trace element analyzes were carried out by ICP-OES and AAS,
Vitamin E by HPLC, Vitamin C, total phenolic content, total
flavonoid, antioxidant capacity, hydrogen peroxide, DPPH, ABTS,
superoxide, hydroxyl and hemolysis of erythrocytes with
phenylhydrazine, radical scavenging activity of the R. anatolyi
flowers methanol extract were determined spectrophotometrically.
According to the results, α-tocopherol, ascorbic acid, phenolic
content, flavonoid content and total antioxidant activity of the R.
anatolyi flowers were 3,99 ± 0,35 μmol kg-1, 346.27 ± 6.51 mg 100 g-1,
21.94 ± 0.37 mg gallic acid g-1, 5.60 ± 0.13 mg quercetin g-1 ve 29.65 ±
0.26 mM ascorbic acid g-1, respectively. Consequently, the mineral,
trace element, vitamin E and vitamin C, total phenol and flavonoid
levels in the R. anatolyi flowers were high, and the R. anatolyi
flowers methanol extract effectively inhibited free radicals. From this
point of view, it is thought that it can be used in the preventive
treatment of many diseases that may be caused by free radical
species and that these data will be a reference for other studies.
