Abstract

Background: Antioxidant compounds are widely used in medicine to protect the organism from the impact of various stresses and strengthen the immune system. The primary source of natural antioxidants is considered plant-based products. That is precisely why scientists are interested in extracting active compounds out of plant materials and use them. However, diverse resources of medicinal plants of Georgia is poorly studied and used as a source of antioxidants. Aim: The research aimed to study the antioxidant composition and total antioxidant activity of some dried medicinal plants sold in the pharmacy network in Tbilisi, Georgia. Methods: Several types of medicinal plants (3 berry plants and 3 herbaceous plants) sold in the pharmacy chain were chosen as the research object. These are Crataegus sp., Sorbus sp., Viburnum sp., Helichrysum sp., Leonurus quinquelobatus Gilib, Origanum vulgare L. Results: As a result, it has been found that the content of ascorbic acid and carotene in the studied plants is not so high to fill the daily intake of a man with an infusion prepared from one tablespoon. As for proline and the number of total antioxidants, all the plants we have chosen are high in content, considerably increasing their medicinal value. Discussion: The low amount of ascorbic acid and carotine found in studied plant, this increases their medicinal value, and in combination with other antioxidants/plants, the healing effect of the raw materials has been used. Conclusions: The studied plants are characterized by high levels of proline and antioxidant activity, so their infusions can be safely used as a source of antioxidants both in folk medicine and for the preparation of biologically active preparations.
格鲁吉亚连锁药店出售的一些药用植物中抗氧化剂的含量
背景:抗氧化化合物在医学上被广泛应用于保护生物体免受各种压力的影响和增强免疫系统。天然抗氧化剂的主要来源是植物性产品。这正是科学家们对从植物材料中提取活性化合物并加以利用感兴趣的原因。然而,格鲁吉亚药用植物资源的多样性研究很少,并被用作抗氧化剂的来源。目的:研究格鲁吉亚第比利斯市药店网络销售的几种干燥药用植物的抗氧化成分和总抗氧化活性。方法:选择连锁药店销售的几种药用植物(3种浆果植物和3种草本植物)作为研究对象。这些植物是山楂、Sorbus、Viburnum、helichryum、Leonurus quinquelobatus Gilib、Origanum vulgare .结果:研究发现,在所研究的植物中抗坏血酸和胡萝卜素的含量并不高,不足以用一汤匙的冲剂来填补一个人每天的摄入量。在脯氨酸和总抗氧化剂数量方面,我们所选择的植物都是高含量的,大大增加了它们的药用价值。讨论:在研究的植物中发现了少量的抗坏血酸和胡萝卜素,这增加了它们的药用价值,并且与其他抗氧化剂/植物结合使用,原料的治疗效果已被使用。结论:所研究的植物具有较高的脯氨酸含量和抗氧化活性,可作为民间医学和生物活性制剂的抗氧化来源。
