Abstract
Methanolic extracts from inflorescences and leaves of five Cirsium species: C. arvense, C. oleraceum, C. palustre, C. rivulare and C. vulgare and CHCl3, Et2O, EtOAc, n-BuOH fractions obtained from those extracts were investigated for their antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity measurement, expressed as Total Antioxidant Status, ranged from 0.98 to 2.71 mM/l. The total phenolic content of the samples varied from 12 to 804 mg/g. There was a positive correlation between the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity for MeOH extracts and EtOAc fractions (R2=0.95, 0.8 respectively).Entities:
