Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. is a perennial plant belonging to the Rosaceae family. Meadowsweet plant grows widely throughout Western Asia, Europe, North America and Siberia.  In our country; It has a natural distribution in the Western, Central and Eastern Black Sea, Upper Sakarya, Upper Euphrates, Erzurum-Kars, Upper Murat-Van and Hakkari sub-regions. FU contains flavonoids, tannins, phenolic glycosides (salicylate), essential oils (salicylaldehyde), minerals and vitamin C. It is a plant with anti-ulcer, anti-rheumatic, immunomodulatory and cytotoxic properties because it contains various polyphenol compounds. The aboveground parts of the plants were collected from Van Yuzuncu Yil University, Medicinal and Aromatic Plants Garden in 2020. In this study; antioxidant activity, total phenolic and flavonoid substance amounts were examined. In the results of working; The amount of antioxidant substance was determined as 136.59 µmol TE/g, the total phenolic substance (198.08 mg GAE/g) and the total flavonoid substance amount was determined as 24.71 mg QE/100 g.
