                            <p>Bu çalışma, Hypericum montanum L.&#039;nin çiçek, yaprak ve gövde metanol ekstraktlarında 25 fenolik bileşiğin kantitatif dağılımının değerlendirildiği ve antioksidan testlerle desteklendiği literatürdeki ilk kapsamlı organ-bazlı analizini sunmaktadır. Her bir organ için toplam fenolik ve flavonoid içerikleri belirlenmiş ve antioksidan kapasiteleri DPPH, FRAP ve CUPRAC yöntemleri kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlar, bitki organları arasında belirgin kimyasal farklılıklar ortaya koymuştur.Çiçek dokusunda epikateşin, kateşin, hesperetin ve kuersetin gibi yüksek düzeylerde flavonoid bileşikler tespit edilmiş ve bu durum, CUPRAC ve DPPH testlerinde gözlemlenen güçlü antioksidan aktivite ile iyi bir uyum göstermiştir. Yaprak dokusunda bol miktarda bulunan rozmarinik asit ve 3,4-dihidroksibenzoik asit gibi fenolik asitler, yüksek FRAP değerleri ile tutarlılık göstermiştir. Bu bulgular, bitkinin bazı organlarının doğal antioksidan zenginleştirilmiş formülasyonlara dahil edilme potansiyeline sahip olabileceğini göstermektedir.Ayrıca, fenolik bileşim verileri, H. montanum’un morfolojik olarak benzer türlerden kemotaksonomik olarak ayrılmasına dair ön bilgiler sağlayabilir. Bu bağlamda, çalışma gelecekteki taksonomik değerlendirmelere katkı sağlayabilecek tamamlayıcı kanıtlar sunmaktadır. Genel olarak, elde edilen bulgular H. montanum’un fitokimyasal ve biyolojik özelliklerine yönelik daha ayrıntılı araştırmalar için bir temel oluşturmaktadır.</p></trans-abstract>

Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were determined for each organ, and antioxidant capacities were assessed using DPPH, FRAP, and CUPRAC methods. The results revealed notable chemical differences among the plant organs.In the floral tissue, high levels of flavonoids such as epicatechin, catechin, hesperetin, and quercetin were detected, which corresponded well with the strong antioxidant activity observed in the CUPRAC and DPPH assays. Phenolic acids such as rosmarinic acid and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, which were abundant in the leaf tissue, were consistent with high FRAP values. These findings suggest that certain organs of the plant may have potential for inclusion in natural antioxidant-enriched formulations.Additionally, the phenolic composition data may offer preliminary insights into the chemotaxonomic differentiation of H. montanum from morphologically similar species. In this respect, the study provides supplementary evidence that could contribute to future taxonomic evaluations. Overall, the findings lay a foundation for more detailed investigations into the phytochemical and biological properties of H. montanum.</p></abstract>
