Determination of Essential Oil Composition and Investigation of Phenolic Substance and Antioxidant Effect of “Helichrysum stoechas” from Hatay

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the essential oil composition, antioxidant capacity and total

phenolic substance of Helichrysum stoechas which was gathered from Hatay region. H. stoechas had a moisture

content of 13.55 weight%, while the essential oil content of 0.3 wt% and ten volatile compounds were determined

and identified by GC. Predominantly volatile components are rosifoliol 4.89%, 3-methoxy-γ-asarone 34.69%,

elemicin 3.24%, myristicin 23.35%, apiol 27.38%. Methanol soluble fraction was found to be 15.3%. Total phenol

concentration was found 256.55 ± 3.7 mg gallic acid equivalent/g of extract powder. DPPH free radical-scavenging

activity IC50 was found as 2.76 ± 44x10-2 mg mL-1. The inhibition value of methanolic extract was compared with

BHA and BHT. The volatile oil is rich in hallucinogenic elemicin and myristicin. Obtained results showed that the

methanolic extract was rich in phenolic content and has a close antioxidant activity to the synthetic antioxidants

BHT and BHA.
