Abstract

Achillea millefolium (Asteraceae, yarrow) has been used in folk medicine against several disturbances including skin inflammations, spasmodic and gastrointestinal disorders. In this study, ethanol and water extracts were prepared from A. millefolium flowers, leaves and seeds. Antioxidant activities were measured by ferric thiocyanate method, and H2O2radical scavenging activity assays and phenolic compounds and flavonoid contents of A. millefolium extracts were also determined. In conclusion, extracts of A. millefolium flowers, leaves and seeds had effective H2O2radical scavenging activity, total antioxidant activity, and these antioxidant activities were compared with BHA and ?tocopherol as reference antioxidants

Özet

Achillea millefolium (Asteraceae, civanperçemi) deri iltihaplanmaları, spazmodik ve gastrointestinal bozukluklar gibi çeşitli rahatsızlıklara karşı halk ilacı olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, etanol ve su ekstreleri A. millefolium çiçek, yaprak ve tohumlarından hazırlandı. Antioksidan aktivite, ferik tiyosiyanat metodu ve H2O2 radikal temizleme testleriyle ölçüldü ve A. millefolium ekstrelerinin fenolik bileşikleri ve flavonoit içerikleri saptandı. Sonuç olarak, A. millefolium çiçek, yaprak ve tohumları etkili H2O2 radikal temizleme aktivitesi ve lipid peroksidasyon inhibisyonu aktivitesi gösterdi ve bu antioksidan aktiviteler referans antioksidanlar BHA ve ?-tokoferol ile karşılaştırıldı.
