CARNASOL AND CARNOSIC ACID CONTENT OF ROSEMARY (Rosmarinus officinalis) WITH RESPECT TO LOCATION AND HARVESTING TIME

Abstract

Rosemary is a good source for carnosol and carnosic acid. There are many parameters could affect the amount of these phenolic diterpenes. It was aimed to determine the effects of location and harvesting time on carnosol and carnosic acid contents of rosemary. Samples used within the scope of the study were taken from three different locations (Adana, Mersin, Antalya) in one month intervals during two years. The carnosic acid and carnosol contents of the samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Location and harvesting time have statistically important effect on carnosol and carnosic acid contents of the plant. The highest carnosol content (0.78%) was determined in the Antalya-Döşemealtı which was harvested at February. And, the highest carnosic acid content (0.74%) was found in the same location in September. The study findings revealed that carnosol and carnosic acid content of rosemary may differ significantly according to harvest time as well as the location.

BİBERİYENİN (Rosmarinus officinalis) KARNOSİK ASİT VE KARNOSOL İÇERİĞİNİN HASAT ZAMANI VE LOKASYONA GÖRE DEĞİŞİMİ

Abstract

Biberiye antioksidan özellikte olan karnosik asit ve karnosol açısından önemli bir kaynaktır. Biberiyenin fenolik diterpen yapıdaki karnosik asit ve karnosol içeriği birçok parametreden etkilenebilmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı bitkisel materyalin alındığı lokasyon ve hasat zamanının bu bileşenlerin miktarı üzerine etkisini belirlemektir. Çalışma kapsamında kullanılan biberiye örnekleri üç farklı lokasyondan (Adana, Mersin, Antalya) birer aylık periyotlarla alınmıştır. Örneklerin karnosik asit ve karnosol içerikleri LC-MS/MS cihazı ile analiz edilmiştir. Karnosol ve karnosik asit içeriği üzerine istatistiksel olarak lokasyon ve hasat zamanının etkisi önemli olmuştur. Karnosol açısından Antalya-Döşemealtı’ndan Şubat ayında alınan örnek en zengin içeriğe (%0.78) sahip iken, karnosik asit açısından en zengin örnek (%0.74) yine aynı lokasyondan Eylül ayında alınan olmuştur. Çalışma bulguları biberiyenin karnosol ve karnosik asit içeriğinin lokasyonun yanında hasat zamanına göre de önemli farklılıklar gösterebileceğini ortaya koymuştur.
