Abstract
⺠Enzyme use on thyme leaves was proposed to improve antioxidant compounds recovery. ⺠Antioxidant compounds recovery from fresh thyme is higher than depleted leaves. ⺠Aqueous methanol produces best extraction of these compounds. ⺠Antioxidant capacity of fresh thyme leaves extracts decreased with enzymes use. ⺠Enzyme use on depleted thyme improves activity and antioxidant compounds yield.
