    In Turkey, Helichrysum genus is represented by 26 taxa belonging to 20 species in Turkish flora of which 14 ones arc endemic to Turkey. The aerial parts of Helichrysum plicatum subsp. plicatum are used kidney stones, kidney and stomach ailments. The extraction procedures and solvents are important step in processing of bioactive constituents from the plant materials. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-urease, anticholinesterase and in vivo anti-inflammatory activities of Helichrysum plicatum subsp. plicatum different extracts. In addition, the phenolic characterization of the Soxhlet and maceration methanol extracts which showed significant antioxidant, anti-urease, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatmy and anticholinesterase activities were performed by HPLC-DAD and LC-MS/MS. In the present study, the Soxhlet methanol extract exhibited strong antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticholinestemse activities than other extracts. The maceration methanol extract showed the strongest anti-urease activity. The Soxhlet methanol and maceration methanol extracts showed in vivo anti-inflammatory activities very close to each other. As a result of this study, chlorogenic acid, dicaffeoylquinic acid, luteolin, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, naringenin-O-hexoside and isoquercitrin compounds were analysed in plant. Therefore, it is thought that methanol extracts can be used as a natural source in the future for food and pharmaceutical industries.

    The Influence of Different Extraction Methods/Solvents on Composition, Biological Activities and ADMET Predictions of Phenolics in Tribulus terrestris
    (INST TECNOLOGIA PARANA, 2021) TAŞKIN, TURGUT; Taskin, Duygu; Yilmaz, Beyza Nur; Taskin, Turgut; Omurtag, Gulden Zehra
    Tribulus terrestris is a plant that has medical importance in treating diseases such as cancer, urinary tract infections, kidney stones, rheumatism, and hypertension. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of extraction methods/solvents on the biological activity and chemical content of the plant and then to determine ADMET predictions of phenolics that were analysed quantitatively using HPLC-DAD in the plant. Maceration methanol (IC50:0.277 mg/mL) and chloroform (0.263 mMFeSO(4)/mg extract) extracts were found to have the strongest DPPH radical scavenging and iron (III) ion reducing activity, respectively. It was determined that Soxhlet methanol (0.0225 mMTE/mg extract) and Soxhlet chloroform (1.360 mMTE/mg extract) extracts exhibited stronger radical cation (ABTS.+) scavenging and cupric ion reducing activity compared to other extracts, respectively. It was found that ultrasonic bath methanol extracts showed the highest anti-urease (21.47%) and calcium oxalate anti-crystallization (71.54%, 80.52%) activity. It was also found that Soxhlet methanol extract (66.763%) has strong acetylcholinesterase enzyme inhibition capacity compared to other extracts. Pyrocatechol, vanillic acid, vanillin, rutin and rosmarinic acid were analysed by HPLC-DAD in the plant. Moreover, it was determined that methanol extracts obtained using soxhlet, ultrasonic bath, and maceration contained the highest amount of rutin, pyrocatechol, and rutin, respectively. ADMET predictions of phenolics show that these compounds are easily absorbed and do not have toxic effects, suggesting that this species may be used as a natural medicinal and nutritional source in the future after detailed analysis tests.
