Abstract
⺠We performed a quantitative analysis of Gentiana asclepiadea aqueous and methanolic extracts. ⺠Mangiferin and an unidentified polar compound are the most pronounced antioxidants. ⺠Extract from haulm exhibited stronger antioxidant properties compared with flower extracts. ⺠Flower and haulm extracts enhanced repair of H2O2-induced DNA damage in human lymphocytes. ⺠Repair of DNA damage induced by nanosilver was stimulated by plant extracts in HEK 293 cells.
