Correlation between phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of Anzer tea (Thymus praecox Opiz subsp. caucasicus var. caucasicus)
چکیده انگلیسی


• Anzer tea (Thymus praecox Opiz subsp. caucasicus var. caucasicus) is important medicinal plant.
• This is first report on phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of Anzer tea.
• Methanol extracts of flower, leaf, stem part of Anzer tea were analyzed by HPLC–UV.
• Quercetin and caffeic acid were most abundant compounds in the plant extracts.
• Acidic hydrolysis has been performed to support elucidation of phenolic profile.

Phenolic compounds of Thymus praecox Opiz subsp. caucasicus var. caucasicus were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography equipped with an ultraviolet detector (HPLC–UV). Quercetin (co-eluting with luteolin) and caffeic acid were among the most abundant compounds identified. In addition syringic, ferulic, p-coumaric, protocatechuic, p-hydroxybenzoic and vanillic acid as well as the flavonoids catechin, epicatechin, and kaempferol were identified and quantified in the plant extracts. Acidic hydrolysis was used to gain additional information on the glycosylation state of the phenolics. Although chromatographic profiles changed considerable upon hydrolysis, quercetin and caffeic acid remained among the most abundant compounds identified. In addition the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activities of different tissues were determined and correlations were found between phenolic or flavonoid content and antioxidant property with strongest radical scavenging activity in hydrolyzed flower extracts.
